Measure Format Settings Table
This table describes the 6 different Measure Formats for data output. Note: A CRC, or Cyclic Redundancy
Check, may be appended to measurement data to ensure its integrity. In the examples below, the CRC
parameter is turned off and there are no CRCs concatenated to the end of a message. <CR> represents
a carriage return (ASCII 13).
M1 is Header and Measured data only. The parameters are comma delimited.
There are 12 fields.
An example is:
M1, 03/06/15, 09:32:15, 1, 0003, 1094, 1004.2, 327, 0.0, 00.0, 20.41, 00<CR>
The format is as follows:
• M1: Specifies the data format.
• Date: dd/mm/yy
• Time: hh:mm:ss
• Plot No: 0-999
• Record No: 1-65535
• CO
2
(ppm): CO
2
reading in parts per million (ppm = µmol mol

)
• Air Pressure (mb): Atmospheric pressure
• Flow Rate (cc/min): Rate of flow.
• H
2
0 (mb): H

O reading
• H

0 Sensor Temperature (°C): Temperature of the gas sample.
• O

reading
• System Error: Displays error code message. (See Error Messages table)
M2 is Measured data only. The parameters are comma delimited. There are 8
fields.
An example is:

M3 is Header, Measured data, and Probe data only. The parameters are comma
delimited. There are 17 fields.
An example is:
M3, 03/06/15, 09:32:15, 1, 0003, 1094, 1004.2, 327, 0.0, 00.0, 20.41, 00, 0.000,
