Chapter 2  SDI Commands 

 

page 11 

2.4.1

 

Start Measurement 

This command is used trigger a measurement on the addressed sensor. The sensor will not return data, instead 
the sensor will return the duration of the measurement as well as the number of data points returned by the 
measurement. The data is read using a subsequent Send Data command. Refer to Tables 2 and 3 for the 
specifics of the data returned from the sensor. 

 

String 

Note 

Cmd 

3M!

 or 

3MC!

 

start a measurement on sensor at address 3 (without or 

with CRC in data response, respectively) 

Resp 

30032 

3

 

device SDI address 

003

 

measurement delay (until data is ready; seconds) 

2

 

number of data points returned 

2.4.2

 

Start Concurrent Measurement 

The concurrent measurement command allows a sensor to take a measurement while other SDI sensors are 
also taking measurements. The Start Concurrent Measurement Command operates in the same manner and 
returns the same information as the Start Measurement command (refer to Table 2). 

 

String 

Note 

Cmd 

3C!

 or 

3CC!

 

start a concurrent measurement on sensor at address 3 

(without or with CRC in data response, respectively) 

Resp 

300302 

3

 

device SDI address 

003

 

measurement delay (until data is ready; seconds) 

02

 

number of data points returned 

2.4.3

 

Send Data 

This command requests the data generated by the preceding Measurement (

M

 or 

C

) command. An 

aD0!

 

command is always the first command sent to retrieve the data. If additional data needs to be read, then an 

aD1!

 

command is sent, then and 

aD2!

 

etc. etc., up to 

aD9!

. Since the DigiTemp returns only two values 

(temperature in degrees C and F), only an 

aD0!

 command is ever required with it. 

 

String 

Note 

Cmd 

3M! 

start a measurement on sensor at address 3 

Resp 

30032 

3

  temperature in degrees Celsius 

+52.5

  temperature in degrees Fahrenheit 

Cmd 

3MC! 

start a measurement on sensor at address 3, with CRC in 

data response 

Resp 

30032
