Polling Operation Commands (Ethernet Only)

On the Ethernet output, the Data channel can operate asynchronously or by polling.

Under asynchronous operation, measurement results are automatically sent on the Data channel when

the sensor is in the running state and results become available. The result is sent on all connected data

channels.

Under polling operation, a client can:

Switch to a different job.

Align, run, and trigger sensors.

Receive sensor states, health indicators, stamps, and measurement results

Gocator sends Control, Data, and Health messages over separate channels. The Control channel is used

for commands such as starting and stopping the sensor, loading jobs, and performing alignment (see

Control Commands on the next page).

The Data channel is used to receive and poll for measurement results. When the sensor receives a Result

command, it will send the latest measurement results on the same data channel that the request is

received on. See Data Commands on page 359 for more information.

The Health channel is used to receive health indicators (see Health Commands on page 362).

Command and Reply Format

Commands are sent from the client to the Gocator. Command strings are not case sensitive. The

command format is:

If a command has more than one parameter, each parameter is separated by the delimiter. Similarly, the

reply has the following format:
