Command Description
CF1xxxx Automatic Ensemble Cycling – Automatically starts the next data collection cycle after the current cycle is completed. Only a
<BREAK> can stop this cycling.
CF0xxxx Manual Ensemble Cycling – Enters the STANDBY mode after transmission of the data ensemble, displays the “>” prompt and
waits for a new command.
CFx1xxx Automatic Ping Cycling – Pings immediately when ready.
CFx0xxx Manual Ping Cycling – Sends a < character to signal ready to ping, and then waits to receive an <Enter> before pinging. The
<Enter> sent to the RiverPro/RioPro is not echoed. This feature manually controls ping timing within the ensemble. Note the
prompt output by the RiverPro/RioPro when ready to ping is a less-than symbol (<), to distinguish it from the normal com-
mand prompt.
CFxx2xx Hex-ASCII Data Output, Carriage Return-Linefeed delimited -- Sends the ensemble in readable hexadecimal-ASCII format with
a Carriage Return-Linefeed at the end of each ensemble, if serial output is enabled (see below).
CFxx1xx Binary Data Output – Sends the ensemble in binary format, if serial output is enabled (see below).
CFxx0xx Hex-ASCII Data Output – Sends the ensemble in readable hexadecimal-ASCII format, if serial output is enabled (see below).
CFxxx1x Enable Serial Output – Sends the data ensemble out the RS-232/422 serial interface.
CFxxx0x Disable Serial Output – No ensemble data are sent out the RS-232/422 interface.
