$PAMTC,
POST
Summary
Perform the Power-On Self Test.
Syntax
$PAMTC,POST*hh
The LB150 WeatherStation will reply with a sentence in the following form:
$PAMTR,POST,<1>,<2>,<3>,<4>,<5>,<6>,<7>,<8>,
<9>,<10>,<11>,<12>,<13>,<14>,<15>,<16>,<17>*hh
Each of the fields <1> through <14> contains an integer value that represents the status of
a simple test performed on a given submodule within the LB150 WeatherStation. For
each field, a value of 0 (zero) indicates the unit passed the respective test; a nonzero
value indicates a possible problem was discovered with the given submodule. Therefore,
a properly operating unit (with all connected options) would reply with
$PAMTR,POST,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,PB200. . A standard LB150 would output
$PAMTR,POST,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,,,,0,PB200, where a Null field indicates sensor not
present.
The fields and their corresponding submodules are listed below.
