MPS4232
Section 5: Software
*This packet will be transmied when the host issues one of the following commands (excluding a return prompt):
1. SCAN from Telnet connecon
2. Any Get command type
3. STATUS
4. LIST <group> or TYPE <group>
5. FDISK
6. An Error message if an error is generated
All responses from the MPS will end with a terminaon conguraon and prompt character (“>”). For “mul-list” or “mul-
line” responses, such as the response to a LIST command, each line will be terminated with a CR-LF (\r\n), except for the last
line in the response, which will include the “>” character.
Single line response: If the MPS is ready, a STATUS command would respond as:
STATUS: READY<CR><LF>
>
Mul-line response: If the MPS is ready, a LIST IP command would respond as:
SET IPADD 191.30.95.1<CR><LF>
SET SUBNET 191.30.95.1<CR><LF>
SET GW 0.0.0.0<CR><LF>
SET MAC 0:60:5d:82:0:04<CR><LF>
>
The “>” signies that the MPS module is ready to accept a new command.

Scan data from the MPS4200 can be formaed in six dierent ways: ASCII (A), Comma Separated Variable (CSV or C),
formaed for VT100 terminals (F), Binary (B), and LabVIEW Binary (L). The format is selected by seng the FORMAT congu-
raon variable to A, C, F, B, or L respecvely. It can also be selected by clicking on the appropriate link on the “Scan” page
when using the Web Browser.
The FORMAT conguraon variable sets the format for Telnet (T), FTP/UDP (F), and Binary Server (B) separately. See the
descripon of FORMAT for detailed descripon.

The MPS4200 can be congured to output ASCII scan data in several formats. The format is congured with the FORMAT
variable. Once a scan has stopped, the output will be followed by the PROMPT conguraon.
Note: Examples in this secon may only show a limited amount of channels for simplicity and space.

When FORMAT T or F is set to A, data is displayed in a column type format and is scrolling at the set rate.
Frame # <number>
<channel 1> <pressure> <temperature>
<channel 2> <pressure> <temperature>
:: :: :: :: ::
<channel n> <pressure>
If UNITS is set to an engineering unit value; <pressure> will be a value in EU, <temperature> will be in °C.
If UNITS is set to RAW; <pressure> will be a raw A/D pressure count, <temperature> will be in °C.
The <temperature> will only be shown on channels 1 through 4 as there are only 4 RTDs.
