for spaces.
• The following example shows a response if an
error occurs.
NG (CR/LF)
21:illegal type
@
A
Function: Reads out the current flow rate
(channels 1-4).
Command example
: @A (CR/LF)
Response example
: 1=-3.00 (CR/LF) 2=3.00 (CR/LF)
(CR/LF)←
This shows that no sensor is
connected to ch. 3.
4=0.00 (CR/LF)
(CR/LF)
@
PRE
Function:
Sets the ON/OFF point for any channel.
Command example
: @PRE11 -3.00 (CR/LF)
Response example
: OK (CR/LF)

@
HYS
Function: Sets the hysteresis width for any
channel.
Command example
: @HYS11 0.02 (CR/LF)
Response example
: OK (CR/LF)
@
HYS11: Channel 1, hysteresis width setting
@
HYS21: Channel 2, hysteresis width setting
@

@
P
Function:
Sets trigger signal for memorizing
reference flow value is enabled or not,
when window comparator mode 2 or 3
is selected as the operation mode.
Command example
:@P1 (CR/LF)
Response example
: OK (CR/LF)
@
P1: Trigger signal for memorizing reference flow value
is enabled at channel 1
@
P2: Trigger signal for memorizing reference flow value
is enabled at channel 2
@
P3: Trigger signal for memorizing reference flow value
is enabled at channel 3
@
P4: Trigger signal for memorizing reference flow value
is enabled at channel 4
@

Function: Sets the operation mode for any
channel.
Command example
: @MODE1 1 (CR/LF)
Response example
: OK (CR/LF)
@
TYPE
Function: Sets the flow sensor type for any
channel.
Command example
: @TYPE1 1 (CR/LF)
