DL8000 Preset Instruction Manual
Revised February-2016 Communications Protocols D-5
Gross Volume is a default value for commands which return total
values. The DL8000 can return one other value, depending on what you
enter in the Preset Delivery Type field [63,0,29] on the Preset Setup
screen’s General Setup tab. Enter Mass (for mass total values) or
Standard (for net standard total values).
Using the DanLoad 6000 protocol, when the TAS communicates with
the preset, the preset does not check for the following:
If write command (for hex 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x27) is issued, the preset
does not check whether the TLP is a W&M type.
Note: Refer to the DanLoad 6000 Communications Specifications
Manual (Part Number 3-9000-674, Revision 2.1, publication
date September 1998) for details on the DanLoad 6000 protocol
and command request or query frame.

parity), 1 (odd parity), or 2 (even
parity).
