Output Formats
Data output can be initiated in one of three ways: 1) By pressing Print
button; 2) Using the Print Interval feature; 3) Sending a print command (P)
from a computer.
RS232 Commands
All communication is accomplished using standard ASCII format. Only the
characters shown in the following table are acknowledged by the Moisture
Analyzer. Invalid command response "ES" error indicates the Analyzer has
not recognized the command. Commands sent to the Analyzer must be
terminated with a Line Feed or carriage return-line line feed (CRLF). Data
output by the Moisture Analyzer is always terminated with a carriage return -
line feed (CRLF).
