@AARA

 

 

Name

Read High-alarm Count Value for Counter 0

Description

Requests

the addressed counter module to return its

 

high-alarm count value of counter 0.

Syntax

@AARA(cr)

 

@ is a delimiter character.

 

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

 

address of the module.

 

RA is the Read High-alarm Count Value for Counter 0

 

command.

 

 

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

Response

!AA(data)(cr) if the command is valid.

 

There is no response if the module detects a syntax or

 

communication error, or even if the specified address does

 

not exist.

 

 

! is a delimiter character which indicates a valid command

 

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

 

address of the module.

 

(data) is the high-alarm count value which consists of eight

 

hexadecimal digits.

 

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

Example

command: @12RA(cr)

 

response:

!12F0000000(cr)

The command instructs the module at address 12 to return its high-alarm count value. The module replies that counter 0's high-alarm count value is F0000000(hex).
