The second field is the dial value that is being used to cal-
culate activity. The third field is the numerical value of activi-
ty. This number may be positive or negative. The fourth and
last field is the units of activity. They will be µCi, mCi, MBq
or GBq. The final character is the end of record character as
described above.
NOTE FOR PCPLUS AND PROCOMM USERS
Load your communications software after your calibrator is
up and running. Press Alt-W to bring up the translation
table. Change 10 to be translated to 13. Press F3 to acti-
vate the translation table. (You may want to save this table
for future use.) Press Esc to exit this option. Press Alt-F3 to
add a line-feed after each carriage return. Records will
appear on your screen, one per line at the rate of approxi-
mately one record per second. If this is not the case, press
"3" to command the calibrator to use automatic transmis-
sion. If you would like to use "records on request only",
press "2". Then press "1" each time you would like the cali-
brator to send you a record.
ADDITIONAL CONTROLS
As of Version 5.0 of the Atomlab 100 firmware, the PC port
for the calibrator will include additional commands that will
allow full control of the calibrator through the PC port. A
series of one byte codes are equated to each button on the
keyboard. All of the same key strokes that are valid from the
keyboard will be available to the user through the PC port.
The commands are the letters A-Z plus "[" and "\" for the 28
possible keys. This is Ascii codes 0x41 through 0x5C. Q
has no meaning for the Atomlab 100. For all units T =
SMPL# or Enter Key for the left most electronic thumbwheel
(ETW #1). W = up arrow for ETW #1. X = down arrow for
ETW #1. Y, Z, [, \ do not apply to the Atomlab 100
