CS – Start Pinging (Go)
Purpose Starts the data collection cycle (same as the Tab key in BBTalk).
Format CS
Recommended Setting. Use as needed. Use WinRiver II to create the command file. The CS command
will be added to the end of the command file or sent by the software.
Description Use CS (or the Tab key in BBTalk) to tell the RiverPro/RioPro to start pinging its trans-
ducers and collecting data as programmed by the other commands. If the TF command is
set (time of first ping), the RiverPro/RioPro waits until it reaches the TF time before be-
ginning the data collection cycle.
1. After a CS command is sent to the RiverPro/RioPro, no changes to the commands can occur
until a <BREAK> is sent.
2. If the RiverPro/RioPro is set to record data (MR1) and the recorder is full, the
RiverPro/RioPro will not start pinging and will return a RECORDER NOT READY message.
CState – Pinging State Query
Purpose Displays the status of the RiverPro/RioPro.
Format CState
Recommended Setting. Use as needed.
Description Displays either “Pinging” or “Not Pinging”, depending on the state of the RiverPro/Ri-
oPro.
CStop – Stop Pinging
Purpose Stops the current deployment.
Format CStop
Recommended Setting. Use as needed.
Description Stops autonomous sampling without resetting the RiverPro/RioPro.
CT – Turnkey Mode
Purpose Sets the Turnkey mode.
Format CTx
Range x = 1 (on), 0 (off)
Default CT0
Recommended Setting. The default setting for this command is recommended for most applications.
Description If the Turnkey mode is enabled, the RiverPro/RioPro will self-deploy (i.e. start pinging)
within 10 seconds after a break unless a valid command is received within that time. After
that, the RiverPro/RioPro will self-deploy when the activity timer (set by the CA com-
mand) period expires.
