1 Introduction
The primary objective of this manual is to provide the information needed to control a Nortek
product that is based on the AD2CP hardware platform. This includes all instruments in the
Signature series. It is aimed at system integrators and engineers with interfacing experience, but
it also includes examples on how to configure and start the instrument for more unexperienced
integrators. The document's scope is limited to interfacing and does not address general
performance issues of the instrument. For a more thorough understanding of the principles, we
recommend the Principles of Operation and for information about how to operate the
instrument, we recommend the Operation Manual.
The document is complete in the sense that it describes all available commands and modes of
communication. For most users, it will make sense to let the supplied Nortek software do most of
the hardware configuration and then let the controller limit its task to starting/stopping data
collection.
As always, these types of documents are subject to change. We recommend that you check
http://www.nortek-as.com/en/support or contact Nortek to ensure you have the all the latest
information and versions of any software you plan to use.
If you have any comments or suggestions on the information given here, please let us know. Your
comments are always appreciated; our general e-mail address is inquiry@nortek.no.
