4018M

Chapter 5

@AACCCSDMTTTT

Name

Set Memory Configuration command

Description

Sets the channel storage status, standalone mode, data

 

logger mode storage type and sampling interval for the

 

specified analog input data logger.

Syntax

@AACCCSDMTTTT(cr)

 

@ is a delimiter character.

 

AA (range 00-FF) represents the 2-character hexadecimal

 

address of an analog input data logger.

 

C is the Set Memory Configuration command.

 

CC (range 00-FF) represents the data storage status of each

 

channel. The ADAM-4018M has 8 channels, bit 0

 

representing channel 0, and bit 7 representing channel 7. A

 

mask bit value of ‘1’ enables data storage in the specified

 

channel, while a mask bit value of ‘0’ disables data storage.

Channel 7

Channel 0

Bit 7

Bit 6

Bit 5

Bit 4

Bit 3

Bit 2

Bit 1

Bit 0

S represents the standalone mode. In order for the ADAM-4018M to operate in the field, you must power on the memory module by setting this value to ‘1.’ Otherwise, the data will not be recorded.

D represents the data logging mode. ‘0’ enables Standard Mode, where all eight channels record the normal data according to the sampling interval. ‘1’ enables Event Mode, where all eight channels record the data if its value is over the High Alarm limit or under the Low Alarm limit. ‘2’ enables Mixed Mode, where channels 0 ~ 3 act as the standard logger and the channels 4 ~ 7 act as the event logger.

M represents the storage type. "0" represents writing to the end of memory. "1" represents circular memory mode.

TTTT(range 2-65535) represents the sampling interval in seconds.

(cr) is the terminating character, carriage return (0Dh).
