8.11.1 BAUD Rate
The BAUDrate is the first parameter in the menu. The BAUD rate setting de-
termines the serial communications transmission rate.
The BAUDrate parameter is indicated by,
bAUd Serial BAUD rate parameter
Press “SET” to choose to set the BAUDrate. The current BAUD rate value is
then be displayed.
2400 b Current BAUD rate
The BAUDrate of the serial communications may be programmed to 300 600,
1200, 2400, 4800, or 9600 BAUD.2400 BAUD is the default setting. Use “UP”
or “DOWN”to change the BAUD rate value.
4800 b New BAUD rate
Press “SET” to set the BAUDrate to the new value or “EXIT” to abort the op-
eration and skip to the next parameter in the menu.
8.11.2 Sample Period
The samplep eriod is thenext parameter in the serial interface parameter menu.
The sample period is thetime period in seconds between temperature measure-
ments transmitted from the serial interface.If the sample rate is set to 5, the in-
strument transmits the current measurement overthe serial interface
approximatelyevery five seconds. The automatic sampling is disabled with a
sampleperiod of 0. The sample period is indicatedby,
SPEr Serial sample period parameter
Press “SET” to choose to set thesample period. The current sample period
valueis disp layed.
SP=1 Current sample period (seconds)
Adjust the value with “UP” or “DOWN” and then use “SET” to set the sample
rate to the displayed value.
SP=60 New sample period
8.11.3 Duplex Mode
The nextparameter is the duplex mode. The duplex mode may be set to full du-
plexor half duplex. With full duplex any commands received by the calibrator
