POLL
To open command mode, use open a<cr>, where "a" stands for address

close<cr>. To poll message, send command send a<cr>. The barometer

6.16 "smode?" Get actual user port start-up operating mode
To get actual user port start-up operating mode, use the smode?<cr> command.
Example:
smode?<cr>
SMODE: RUN<cr><lf>
6.17 “intv” Change the outputting interval for RUN mode
Use the command intv<cr> to set the outputting interval for the RUN mode.
The command affects settings on the port currently connected. If you issue the command via
RS-232, the settings will be used only for RS-232.
When connected via service port, the settings of RS-232 or RS-485 may be changed via
prior redirection to the respective port - see commands terminal rs232<cr> or terminal
rs485<cr>.
Example:
intv<cr>
Select new interval in seconds: 1<cr>
wait..OK<cr><lf>
