6.1.1 Message structure
The message s
tructure and command set are the same for RS485 and RS232 opons. To
communicate a message to the nEXT pump, the characters must be sent in a specic
order. If the message does not conform to the correct structure it will be ignored and no
reply will be sent.
The correct structure to use is as follows:
▪ a valid start character, either a '!' character for a store operaon or a '?' character
for a query operaon, followed by
▪ a command, which will be an upper case alphabecal
character, followed by
▪ an object number, comprising three decimal digits, followed by
▪ for some commands only, a data eld, comprising a sequence of characters
separated from the object number by a space, followed by
▪ a terminang carriage return.
The message protocol in mul-drop mode is marginally dierent, refer to Mul-drop
operaon on page 46.
