Data bits: 8
Parity: none
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: off
12.2 Protocol
All sensors of the CTlaser series are using a binary protocol. Alternatively they can be switched to an ASCII
protocol. To get a fast communication the protocol has no additional overhead with CR, LR or ACK bytes.
12.3 ASCII Protocol
To switch to the ASCII protocol please use the following command:
Decimal: 131
HEX: 0x83
Data, answer: byte 1
Result: 0 – Binary protocol
1 – ASCII protocol
