where:
tttt indicates the current temperature multiplied by a factor of ten;
u indicates the temperature scale (°F or °C);
s
t
indicates the present state of the Programmable Temperature Controller (as de-
scribed in Table 8 at the end of this section).
A typical response might be T2345F, which means that the temperature is 234.5°F, and the con-
troller is presently in the run mode (1).
2) To read the current temperature setpoint, enter S{CR} at the external device. The response
from the Programmable Temperature Controller to the computer will be:

indicates the present state of the controller.
A typical response might be S1004C2, which means that the current setpoint is 100.4 °C, and the
controller is in the wait or standby mode (i.e. the Programmable Temperature Controller is not
controlling the Thermo Container).

is the setpoint temperature multiplied by ten and u indicates the temperature scale
in either °F or °C.
A typical command sent to the controller might be RS1004C{CR}, which indicates the new setpoint
should be 100.4 °C. The generic form of the response from the Programmable Temperature
Controller to the computer will be in the form:

The actual response to the above command will be RS1004F2{CR}. The last digit indicates that the
system is in stand-by mode (see Table 8).
4) To change the operating mode, enter RA{s

t
indicates
the desired state of the controller (as described in Table 8) and must be either a 1 or a 2.
