Sommer CRC-16
The CRC-16 (cyclic redundancy check) used in data transmission of Sommer devices is based on the
ZMODEM protocol. When data are exchanged between two devices the receiving device calculates the
CRC-value. This value is compared to the CRC value sent by the other device to check if the data were
transmitted correctly. Please refer to technical literature or contact Sommer for calculation of CRC-16
values.
