NOTE

The temperature unit in offset correction is always de-
grees Centigrade, even if the transmitter is using non-
metric units (Fahrenheit) in its measurement output.

OUTPUT VIA THE SERIAL BUS

R

Starting the measurement output

R

Starts output of measurements to the peripheral devices (PC display or
printer); output interval is set with command INTV.

The output format depends on the transmitter configuration and which vari-
ables are in use. The order, however, is always the same: water activity and
temperature temperature. An example:

aw= 0.43.0 T= 21.0 'C

When the transmitter sends out the readings, the serial interface does not echo
any commands; the only command that can be used is S (stop).

The output mode can be changed with command FORM.

S

Stopping the measurement output

S

Ends the RUN state; after this command all other commands can be used.
