@AAHI

 

 

Name

Set High Alarm Limit command

Description

Downloads high alarm limit value into the addressed

 

module.

 

Syntax

@AAHI(data)(cr)

 

@ is a delimiter character.

 

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

 

address of an analog input module.

 

HI is the Set High Limit command.

 

(data) represents the value of the desired high limit setting.

 

The format is always engineering units.

 

(cr) represents terminating character, carriage return (0Dh).

Response

!AA(cr) if the command was valid.

 

There is no response if the module detects a syntax error or

 

communication error or if the specified address does not

 

exist.

 

 

! delimiter character indicates a valid command was

 

received.

 

 

AA represents the 2-character hexadecimal address of the

 

responding analog input module.

 

(cr) represents terminating character, carriage return (0Dh).

Example

command:

@04HI+080.00(cr)

 

response:

!04(cr)

Presume the analog input module at address 04h is configured to accept T-type thermocouple input. The command will set the High alarm limit to 80.

The module responds that the command has been received.

NOTICE: An analog input module requires a maximum of 2 seconds after it received an Set High Alarm command to let the settings take effect . During this interval, the module can not be addressed to perform any other actions.
