Section 5: Software
FUNCTION BYTES DATA TYPE DESCRIPTION
Frame Time (ns) 4 U Integer
Frame Time in nanoseconds.
This value will either be a me relave to 0 (when PTP is disabled),
or an absolute PTP me.
Temperatures 16 Float Array of 4 temperature values as read from the 4 RTDs.
Pressures 128
Float or
Integer
Array of 32 pressure values. The oat or integer is selected based on
the units (oat = EU, integer = RAW).
This binary packet is used when SET SIM == 64. When enabled, the packet size and structure will match a MPS4264,
64-channel binary packet, however will use padded data for channels not being used (pressure channels 33-64, tempera-
tures 5-8). This allows the same packet structure to be used for MPS4200 32 and 64 channel modules in the same soware.
This packet is a total of 348 bytes.
FUNCTION BYTES DATA TYPE DESCRIPTION
Packet Type 4 Integer A Hex
Packet Size 4 Integer Size in bytes of this packet (348)
Frame Number 4 Integer The current frame number if in the scan mode.
Serial Number 4 Integer Serial Number of the module (SET SN)
Frame Rate 4 Float Scanning rate in Hz
Valve Status 4 Integer 0 - Px Only (32 is valveless)
Units index 4 Integer Units conversion index (add table)
Units conversion
factor
4 Float Conversion factor from PSI to selected units
PTP Scan Start
Time (sec)
4 Integer Scan start me in seconds
PTP Scan Start
Time (ns)
4 Integer Scan start me in nanoseconds
External Trigger
Time
4 U Integer External Trigger Time in us
Temperatures 32 Float
Array of 4 temperature values as read from the 4 RTDs. The
remaining bytes will be padded with “0” (5 - 8).

Float or
Integer
Array of 64 pressure values. The oat or integer is selected based on
the units (oat = EU, integer = RAW).
