ASTECH LDM41A - Table 5: Commands of the LDM41 A and LDM42 A

Commands and Parameter LDM41A and LDM42A Manual
Page 26 ASTECH GmbH
Any command must be terminated by a hexadecimal 0Dh (carriage return)
character.
Where decimal digits are to be entered, they must be separated by period
(2Eh).
For command parameter entries, one must distinguish between parameter
settings and parameter queries.
Querying is achieved with a command in simple format, e.g. (for alarm center
parameters):
AC[Enter]
For parameter setting, a new value must be added after the command with no
delimitation sign in between, for example:
AC20.8[Enter]
In the given example, the alarm center will be set to 20.8.
