COMMAND RATE
TYPE Set/Get
DESCRIPTION Sets the scan rate of the MPS, or retrieves the current seng. This value is expressed in Hertz (Hz)
or samples per channel per second.
The MPS uses internal averaging for rate sengs less than 500 (Hz). This means that the MPS will
take X amount of samples and average these values before outpung a single pressure value in
the data packet. When RATE is greater than or equal to 500, AVG will always be 1 (no averaging).
The internal AD Rate will be equal to the set RATE.
When RATE is less than 500, the internal AD rate and number of averages can be calculated using
the following equaons:
AVG = ceil (500 / RATE)
ADrate = RATE × AVG
where ceil(x) nds the next integer greater than x
SYNTAX SET RATE <rate>
Where <rate> is the number of samples per seconds for all channels in Hz (sample/channel/
second)
RETURNS Prompt when ready to accept a new command
