Using Frequency Pressure Sensors with SonTek/YSI Systems (December 2001)

5. Additional Software
This section describes additional software required to use external frequency pressure sensors
(
DRUCK
/
PAROSFREQ
) with SonTek instruments.
5.1. Downloading and Extracting Druck Calibration: LDDRUCK/GTDRUCK
The
LDDRUCK.EXE
program
loads
the
DRUCK
/
PAROSFREQ
calibration file into the instrument’s
processor. The command syntax is:
LDDRUCK [DruckCalFile] [-COM port] [-Baud Rate] [-Address]
where
•
DruckCalFile
is the name of the calibration file (no extension).
•
-COM port
is the serial port to which the system is connected (1=COM1; 2= COM2).
•
-Baud Rate
is the communication baud rate setting of the system. If no value is given, the
program assumes the default setting of 9600 baud. Acceptable baud rate settings are 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200.
•
-Address
is the address for a RS-485 system.
Example:
LDDRUCK P84567 –p1 –b19200 –a2
will download the file
P84567.DRK
onto the
system at address
2
connected to COM port
1
at
19200
baud.
The
GTDRUCK.EXE
program
gets
(downloads) the
DRUCK
/
PAROSFREQ
calibration file from the in-
strument’s processor to the user’s PC. The command syntax is:
GTDRUCK [MyCalFile] [-COM port] [-Baud Rate] [-Address]
where
•
MyCalFile
is the name of the calibration file (no extension).
•
-COM port
is the serial port to which the system is connected (1=COM1; 2= COM2).
•
-Baud Rate
is the communication baud rate setting of the system. If no value is given, the
program assumes the default setting of 9600 baud. Acceptable baud rate settings are 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200.
•
-Address
is the address for a RS-485 system.
Example:
GTDRUCK B199 –p2 –b19200
will retrieve the calibration data from the system
connected to COM port
2
at
19200
baud and store the data into file
B199.DRK
.
