4.12  RS232 interface - commands (PM-V2 protocol) 
 
4.12.1  Control commands (PM-V2 compatible) 
Note: 
Control commands are accepted only, when the PM controller is in REMOTE mode, except of all U: commands 
Control commands are acknowledged by one or two acknowledgements: 
1st answer: Confirmation that command has been received, within 40 ms 
2nd answer: If enabled, confirmation that command has been executed (except S: command: no 2nd answer will be replied) 
 
<CR>...Carriage Return (0D hexadecimal); <LF>...Linefeed (0A hexadecimal)

Examples / Explanation 
Remote Operation  U:01   U:   =  switch to Remote 
Local Operation  U:02   U:   =  switch to Local 
Close valve  C:   C:            (C:<CR><LF>)  = close 
Open valve  O:   O:            (O: <CR><LF>)  = open 
Select valve position 
in 1/1000  of stroke 
(0000 = closed, 1000 =  pen) 
R:xxxxxx   R: 
(R: ) 
R:000428  
= 428 / 1000  of stroke 
Zero  
Sensor offset adjustment 
Z:   Z:   automatic zero adjustment of both 
sensors and all voltage ranges 
Autolearn 
Xxxxxx = maximum pressure 
to be learned,  
0 - communication range 
(C.R.) 
L:xxxxxx   L:   L:100000  
= up to sensor full scale 
   (communication range set to 
   100000) 
Pressure setpoint 
Xxxxxx = setpoint value  
0 - communication range 
(C.R.) 
S:xxxxxx  
 
S:  
(no 2
nd
 answer) 
 
S:000119  
119 = C.R./F.S. * setpoint 
Hold mode 
Freeze valve position 
H:  
K:  
H:  
K:  
= start hold 
= change to pressure mode 
Note: Command can be used in 
pressure and position mode. 
Reduced positioning speed 
in 1/1000  of maximum speed 
(remains stored until next 
speed is given and is set to 
1000 after mains is switched 
off) Function is active for R: 
commands only 
V:xxxxxx  
 
 
 
V:  
 
 
V:000200  
R:000428  
= Actuator speed is 200* 1/1000 = 
20%  of maximum speed,  while 
gate is moved to position 428* 
1/1000 = 428

Only sensor 1 used  U:18   U:   = only sensor 1 used  
Only sensor 2 used  U:19   U:   = only sensor 2 used  
Sensor 1 and 2 used 
(auto switching) 
U:20   U:   = sensor 1and 2 used
