7.3.4 SET FORMAT OUTPUT OF DATA
To set up the magnetometer data output format type F on the host computer at the
configuration menu prompt. This allows us to change the “Format of Output”. There will
be a series of questions provided which allow us to reconfigure the data output format. The
current setting of each parameter is shown after each question. It can either be left as default
by simply pressing ENTER or edited with the backspace key. Each parameter's order in
the output string can also be adjusted by assigning a particular “display position” when
prompted. The series of questions is shown below. Note that most items have a display
position of “0”. This means the item is not in the output data stream. In the following
configuration list note that there are three configuration items in the output data stream:
1)
The field value at position 1 with a format of #####.##### (5 digits before and after
the decimal)
2)
The signal strength at position 2 with a format of ##.# (2 digits before and one after
the decimal point).
3)
The status bytes at position 3 with two bytes.
Use the backspace to edit the number and hit ENTER (0.004 = 250 Hz)
