Method 2
1) Start HyperTerminal (or any other terminal program) and set to 19200,
7, N, 2 (or the baud rate you want to use later). HyperTerminal is
installed with Windows 2000/XP, and can be found in Start
Menu Programs Accessories Communications
2) Cycle the gauge power.
3) Hit the Enter key 3 times, or transmit three
Carriage Returns (hex 0x0d).
4) Use the "Z" command to verify gauge is
communicating.
5) Use the "J" command to set the RS-232
baud rate or the "@" command to set the
RS-422 baud rate.
6) Reconfigure HyperTerminal to the new
baud rate if different from that in step 1.
Communication Protocol
This section lists the commands used to configure the LS8000-3, and to read
measurement data. Throughout this section, is used to denote a
carriage return, and is used to indicate a linefeed.
Notation Description
Carriage Return character
ASCII Value: 13
Linefeed character
ASCII Value: 10
Integer Value (variable length)
Indicates an integer value with length from 1 to 9 characters. When sending
a command to set a configuration setting, the transmitted value can contain
leading zeros, but they are not required. When reading a configuration
setting, the LS8000-3 will not transmit leading zeros in its response.
Example Notation: L
Example Command: L100000
IP Address
Example Notation: *IPADDR=
Example Command: *IPADDR=192.168.10.246
