6.3.4 Adjusting Parameters for Serial Interface
6.3.4.1 Setting the Baud Rate and Parity
Command Reply Range
Meaning
CBn<Cr>
*CBn
0
≤
n
≤
9
Setting the Baudrate for communication via serial
interface.
n = 0: 150 n = 1: 300
n = 2: 600 n = 3: 1200
n = 4: 2400 n = 5: 4800
n = 6: 9600 n = 7: 19200
n = 8: 38400 n = 9:115200
CPn<Cr>
*CPn
0
≤
n
≤
4
Setting Parity for communication via serial interface.
n = 0: 8 Data Bits, no Parity
n = 1: 8 Data Bits, even Parity
n = 2: 8 Data Bits, odd Parity
n = 3: 8 Data Bits, Parity = Mark (= No Parity, 2
Stop Bits)
n = 4: 8 Data Bits, Parity = Space
Note that it is necessary to save parameters permanently by command “W” and
to reset the instrument to activate new values of CB or CP.
When using the LMS-Q280i under environmental conditions providing
electrical, electrostatic and/or electromagnetic disturbances, data commu-
nication with high baud rates may result in communication errors. In this
case set the baud rate to a lower value.
6.3.4.2 Setting the Line Separator
Command Reply Range
Meaning
CSn<Cr>
*CSn
0
≤
n
≤
1
Setting the Line Separator for data string sent via
serial interface.
n = 0: Carriage Return <Cr>
n = 1: Carriage Return + Line Feed <Cr> + <Lf>
6.3.4.3 Setting the Serial Mode
Command Reply Range
Meaning
CMn<Cr> *CMn
0
≤
n
≤
1 Setting the serial mode.
n = 0: RS232
n = 1: RS422
Note that it is necessary to reset the instrument to activate new values of CM.
