February 2020TD 266 OPERATING MANUAL ZPulse® DCS 4420/4830/4520/4930 Page 101
The data output message starts with MEASUREMENT followed by Product Number, Serial Number (tabulator
between). The rest of the message is the output parameters which change from record to record. The parameter names
and values are separated by tabulator (ASCII code 09).
6.8 Output parameters provided by the ZPulse
®
These data are output as a string from the sensor in Smart Sensor Terminal mode. The name with unit shown in the
table 5-2 is the exact same way as these are sent from the sensor, i.e. parameter name with unit in [ ] parentheses. The
parameter name and the value output are separated by a tabulator (ASCII code 09). The output is a long string
terminated by carriage return + line feed after all the profile data at the end. Each parameter can be read with a Get
command using the RS-232 Protocol
