Overview of commands and parameters
Online commands can be used to send commands directly to the device for control and configuration.
For this, the BPS 37 has to be connected to a host or service computer via the serial interface. The
commands described can be sent either via the host or the service interface.
9.2.1 General online commands
9.2.2 General parameter structure
Using the BPSConfig program, parameters can be changed via the service interface. These parameters
are divided into individual folders.
The following folders are available:
Command
Description
M+
Activation of the measurement
M-
Deactivation of the measurement
MI
Reversing the counting direction
With the standard setting, the calculation is performed back from the max.
measurement length (10000 meter)
MNx=yzzzzzzz
Set preset value
x = T = value is stored temporarily
(the value is erased after switching on and off)
x = D = value is stored permanently in the EPROM
y = sign for preset value
zzzzzzz = specification of the preset value in mm
Example: MND=+0001000
Current position is permanently set to +1000 mm.
MNR
Deactivates the preset value. The unformatted measurement value is output.
MMxyyyy
Controls the data output via the service interface
x = S = a measurement value is output (Single Shot Mode); subsequent
specification of the time not necessary
x = T = measurement values are output cyclically; time must be subsequently
specified
y = time specification in ms
Example: MMT0500
Measurement values are output via the service interface in a time interval of
500ms
MM-
Deactivation of the MMTyyy function
If the cyclical output via the service interface is no longer required, the func
-
tion must be deactivated using the command MM-.
PC20
Resetting all parameters in the BPS 37 to Leuze default values.
