Output: The data output is status information, in digital form, up-

dated every two seconds. Status is reported in the following order:

The concentration in ppm or percent

Type of gas

The range in use (01 = Range 1, 02 = Range 2, 03 = Range 3,
CAL = Range 4)

The scale of the range (0-100 %, etc)

Which alarms—if any—are disabled (AL–x OFF)

Which alarms—if any—are tripped (AL–x ON).

Each status output is followed by a carriage return and line feed.

Input: The input functions using RS-232 that have been imple-

mented to date are described in Table 3-3.
