LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook

RS-232/RS-422 Communication

Example:

If using two external Material Present detectors and the detectors are mounted 4 feet apart, you would set the Length Reset Value to 4 feet to automatically add 4 feet to each measurement.

Assuming that the gauge's measurement units are in feet, to set the value to 4.000 ft, you would send the command:

 

$R4000<CR>

U

Measurement Units

U<CR> Read

Response Format: <N>

U<N><CR> Set

<N> is an integer specifying the Measurement Units. When changing the measurement units, be sure to update the Pulse/Length settings (L and P) if you want to maintain the same pulse output frequency for a given speed.

Value Units

0m/s

1ft/s

2ft/min

3m/min

4in/min

5mm/min

6mm/s

7yards/min

8yards/s

Note: Changing this setting will cause a reset, will reset the indicated length, and will cause the pulse outputs to be momentarily interrupted. Do not change this setting during normal operation.
