Measurement Reporting Command/Response Strings
Prior to communicating over RS-232 serial bus with the BDS receiver, RS-232 data reporting must be enabled in the
"Measurement Data Reporting Over RS-232" on page 78
Command
The commands available for RS-232 are shown in
. For any command, data is only sent for the
measurements that are configured in the GUI.
The format of an RS-232 command is
SD\n\r.
Once a command is sent, the BDS receiver will respond with a response as shown in
.
