RS232/RS485 COMMAND SUMMARY
NOTE: All commands that do not require a response otherwise, respond with an "A" and a carriage return if
properly recognized. Whenever any command is not properly recognized, the Modular unit will respond with a
question mark, "?" followed by a carriage return. All other command responses end with a carriage return. All
"?<cr>" responses will be preceded by a letter indicating the reason for the rejection of the command. The
following list gives the definitions of those letters; all other command responses end with a carriage return.
A Atmospheric correction only allowed for 4A gauges
C A non number was where a number should have been.
D Disallowed, usually by the configuration of the unit.
L Value inputted was too large.
N Number not in range, or not a number.
O Input buffer overloaded
R Command not recognized.
S Wrong sensor type.
