Laser LS8000-3 manual Netmask, Final Length Mode

LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook

RS-232/RS-422 Communication

*IPNETMSK Netmask

*IPNETMSK?<CR> Read

Response Format: *IPNETMSK=<N><CR>

Set

*IPNETMSK=<XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX><CR>

Where <XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX> is the netmask, formatted as an IP Address, such as

"192.168.10.255". This command can be used manually set the netmask, or to read back the value assigned by the DHCP server.

If the DHCP option is enabled, the value stored for this setting is ignored, and the IP Address read from the DHCP server is returned. If there was an error contacting the DHCP server, then the value is returned as 0.0.0.0.

If DHCP is disabled, then this command is used to manually set the Netmask. Example: (DHCP disabled)

To set the Netmask:

Command: *IPNETMSK=192.168.0.255<CR>

…and then read it back

Command: *IPNETMSK?<CR>

Response: *IPNETMSK=192.168.0.255<CR>

This setting can be disregarded if the Ethernet option is not installed.

Note: This setting will take effect after a power-cycle.

TF Final Length Mode

TF<CR> Data Output Command

Data Format: <+LLLLLL.LLL,QF><CR>

This command places the LS8000-3 into Final Length Mode. This mode only affects the communication port over which the command is sent. For example, if the command is sent over RS-232, only the RS-232 port will transmit Final Length readings—the RS-422 and Ethernet ports will not change operation.

The LS8000-3 will output a serial message at the end of each piece part (loss of material present) containing final length, and the average Quality Factor over the piece part.

In the data format above, <+LLLLLL.LLL> is the final length of the part, including starting and ending length correction. <QF> is the average Quality Factor that was measured over the part. Each time Material Present is lost, the LS8000-3 will output a Final Length reading if the measured length is larger than the Minimum Final Length.

Example Data:

+000023.011,15<CR>

+000023.012,15<CR>

+000023.011,15<CR>

To remove the gauge from this mode, send a <CR>, or send .<CR>.
