DATA FORMAT DEFINITION
NO DATA
OPTION
VALUE
No data actually transferred.
This type of message initiates an activity within the instrument rather
than accessing data. For instance, sending the Text string !ds will
cause the unit to store its scratch parameter data area to EEPROM.
This must always be done after configuration parameters have been
modified via the Comms. If this is not done the changes will be lost
when the instrument is switched off.
An ASCII number corresponding to the position of an item within
the list of parameters denoted in the associated FORMAT column
of the Message table. The numbering starts
from zero. E.G An Alarm action (AA) High Alarm will have a data
field corresponding to 2.
These are ASCII numeric fields which are scaled and formatted
according to the entry in the FORMAT column of the message
table.
