SBE 39plus-IM Acquisition Microcontroller Commands
When using
inductive modem telemetry
, precede all commands to the
39
plus
-IM Acquisition Microcontroller by one of the following prefixes:
•
#ii
(ii = 39
plus
-IM ID, 0 – 99) [
as shown in the command listings below
],
for transmission to the 39
plus
-IM with the indicated ID.
•
#Sx:
(x = serial number of integrated IMM in 39
plus
-IM) in place of
#ii
,
for transmission to the 39
plus
-IM with the indicated serial number.
•
#Gn:
(n = group number of 39
plus
-IM) in place of
#ii
, for transmission to
all 39
plus
-IMs in the indicated group.
When using
USB telemetry
(connecting directly to the 39
plus
-IM’s internal
USB connector), omit the
#ii
prefix shown in the command listings below.
Note:
If using the 39
plus
-IM’s internal USB
connector to set up and/or upload data
from the 39
plus
-IM: In SeatermV2’s
Instruments menu, select
SBE 39plus IM USB
instead of
SBE 39 plus IM
. This launches
SeatermUSB – SBE39plus-IM instead
of SeatermIM.
Notes:
•
For serial number addressing
(
#Sx:
), use the serial number of the
IMM integrated in the 39
plus
-IM, as
displayed in the
!iiGetCD
,
!iiGetHD
,
or
!iiGetSD
response.
Example
– Send
SL
to a 39
plus
-IM
with serial number 03907842 and
integrated IMM with serial number
70003345. The command would be
#s70003345:sl
.
•
For group addressing (
#Gn:
), the
39
plus
-IM responds
<ERROR
type='FAILED' msg='No reply
from remote device'/>
,
because instruments do not send a
response to a group command. You
can confirm that the instrument
actually accepted the command (for
example, if you changed the
instrument set up, send
#iiGetCD
to
confirm the setup change).
•
Older SIM versions (firmware <
3.0a) do not
know
that there will be
no response from a group command
(
#Gn:
), and wait for a response
before allowing you to enter the next
command. Press Esc and Enter
after sending a group command to
eliminate waiting before being able
to send the next command.
Examples:
#02datetime=04082016073500
sends a command to
instrument with ID=02 to set date and time to April 8, 2016 7:35:00.
#S70012345:datetime=04082016073500
sends a command
to instrument with IMM serial number 70012345 to set date and time
to April 8, 2016 7:35:00.
#G1:datetime=04082016073500
sends a command to all
instruments in Group 1 to set date and time to April 8, 2016 7:35:00.
