Command Review
The easiest way to trigger and parameterize the sensors is by using a PC with RS232 communication port
and a terminal program, see Chap.
8.
. The communications protocol is available in ASCII format.
Before an operating session begins, desired parameter settings can be made in a smart selection procedure
until the measuring module is optimally adapted to the particular measuring site conditions and the measu-
ring job. All valid settings will be preserved on turning the sensor off! They can only be replaced with new
value entries or changed back to their standard values by running an initialization routine.
