This is a list of commonly used commands for the G−882 magnetometer. For a
full list of commands and command options refer to the commands section of the
manual (below).
Set Cycle time
C0100 <enter> sets the magnetometer to sample at 1 second intervals.
C0010 <enter> sets the magnetometer to sample at 0.1 second intervals.
Set A/D channels on/off for a single magnetometer (see full list for control of more
than one magnetometer) '0' = turn off channel; '1' = turn on channel.
The G−882 has a total of 8 analog channels (0-7) plus magnetic field reading.
A11 turns on channel 1
A12 turns on channel 2
A13 turns on channel 3 (up to 8 analog channels)
A01 turns off channel 1
A02 turns off channel 2
A03 turns off channel 3 (up to 8 analog channels)
In a typical system they are designated as follows:
Magnetic field (always on)
Chan. 0 signal
Chan. 1 depth
Chan. 2 altimeter
Chan. 3 Brightness indicator
Chan. 4 RF effort indicator
Chan. 5 28 volts at magnetometer
Chan. 6 humidity inside magnetometer
Chan. 7 heater
Note: The depth, altimeter, and 28 volts need to have calibration coefficients
applied to convert to feet, meters, or volts.
