CHECKING THE SERIAL PORT NETWORK OPERATION
Normally measurement readings are asked when the transmitter is in POLL
mode; then the command must include the address of the transmitter. If the
settings of the transmitter need to be changed, the transmitter is switched to
STOP mode with command OPEN; commands can then be given without
address. When the line to the transmitter is closed, it returns to POLL mode.
STOP mode
Open the line to the transmitter:
open 22
HMP 22 line opened for operator commands
Transmitter no. 22 is now temporarily set to STOP mode; it accepts com-
mands sent without address until CLOSE command is given. Individual set-
tings can now be easily modified. Do not open more than one line at a time.
Use command ? to find out the settings of the active transmitter:

When the necessary settings have been given, close the line to transmitters
(the command closes all open lines):
>close
line closed
CLOSE command is always given without address. If no lines are open, there
will be no response to the CLOSE command.
