‘P’ – Single Data Record Output
Syntax:
P
Description:
Output transmit mode refers to whether the system automatically transmits data
records to the host (continuous output mode), or the host must request data
records by sending a command to the system each time (non-continuous output
mode).
Purpose:
In non-continuous output mode, this command requests a single data record to be
transmitted to the host. If more than one station is enabled, then data from each
active station will be displayed in numerical order (station 1 first, station 2
second, etc. That is, a complete cycle of active stations will be output.)
Relatives:
C, c
Default:
Continuous output mode is disabled
Example:
If the system is being used in an application where data is only needed a certain
number of times, then the single data record output should be used. To request a
single data record from the system, send the command as follows:
P
One data record from the FASTRAK system will be sent across the serial port to
the host computer.
