1-10 Introduction

H-335

1.9.1 Method I

Issue repeated SDI-12 “aM1” and “aD0” commands.

For the “aM1” command, the H-335 places 6 parameters in its data buffer where:

a

= Sensor Address

(0-9,A-Z)

+AA.AA

= UserAngle

(degrees of angle)

+BB.BBB

= SensorAngle

(degrees of angle)

+CCCC

= Raw A/D Positive Count

(±8192)

+DDDD

= Raw A/D Negative Count

(±8192)

+EEEE

= Raw A/D Positive Count

(±16384)

+FF.FF

= SensorTemperature

( C)

1.9.2 Method II

Use the “aXTEST” command (see Chapter 2).

This command is primarily used for production testing and requires the use of a H-419 Sidekick interface

and a PC. This command causes the H-335 to transmit unsolicited real-time data for testing purposes. This

is not compliant with the SDI-12 specification and is not used with data loggers.

XTEST continually prints the following parameters in a single line:

Sensor Address (0-9, A-Z)
SensorAngle

( Angle)

For example:

1 +1.200

1 +1.200

1 +1.500

1 +1.700

1 +1.900

etc.

Step 5:

Remove the cover from the H-335 and make the wiring connections. Leave the cover off, do

not bolt the assembly to the I-beam at this time.

Step 6:

Connect the +12V power. Issue an “aI” identifiy command to make certain the sensor is

connected and working.

Step 7:

Make certain the tainter gate is fully closed and resting on the sill.
