Start Measurement Command with 
CRC (aMC)
Command format: aMCx!
This command has the same function as the aM but a three-character 
CRC is added to the response data strings before <cr><lf>. In order to 
request the measured data, Send data command aD should be used, see 
the following sections.
Start Concurrent Measurement (aC)
This command is used when there are several devices on the same bus 
and simultaneous measurements are needed from the devices, or if more 
than nine (9) measurement parameters are requested from a single 
device.
ttt = The measurement completing time in seconds
n = The number of the measured parameters available 
(maximum number is 9)
<cr><lf> = Response terminator
NOTE
For changing the message parameters, units and other settings, see 
Chapter 8, Sensor and Data Message Settings, on page 95.
NOTE
When the measurement takes less than one second, the response part 
two is not sent.
NOTE
The maximum number of parameters that can be measured with aM 
and aMC commands is nine (9). If more parameters are to be 
measured, Start concurrent measurement commands aC and aCC 
should be used (for which the maximum number of parameters to be 
measured is 20), see the following sections.
