Commands relating to Mark-10 force and torque gauges are NOT the same as
indicated in the respective user’s guides. A list of supported ASCII commands is
provided below. All commands must be uppercase:
A Displays current unit
F Toggles between Normal and Data Collect modes
P Steps through Normal mode, Tension/CCW Peak
mode, and Compression/CW Peak mode
R Zeroes the gauge (zeroes all modes)
S Sends currently selected mode (Normal, Tension/
CCW Peak, Compression/CW Peak, or Data Collect)
U Steps through units
X or ? Sends currently displayed reading
Y Enables RS-232 output and sends continuous data
stream when in Data Collect mode
Z Zeroes the currently selected mode
The 09-1143 cable is needed to communicate between a Mark-10 gauge and the
controller.
The 09-1056 serial cable is needed to communicate between a computer and the
controller. Baud rate, stop bits and parity must be programmed in the stand to
correspond with the computer program’s settings. Details on this are provided in
Section 5.
While in PC control, if any parameters are changed on the controller, these settings
will be ignored, except if Auto Return or Cycling are turned on. If so, PC control will
be turned off automatically.
