9.4 Response Time in Setup Mode

The analog output response time is not guaranteed while a parameter value is being changed or if there is a continuous stream of commands from the host.

The digital response time specifies how quickly the unit can report a temperature change via RS485 in burst mode. (Digital response time is not defined for polled mode.) The digital response time is defined as the time that elapses between a change in target temperature and the transmission of a burst string reporting the new temperature. Actual digital response time can vary from one reading to the next, so the digital response time is defined as the “average digital response time.”

The average digital response time depends on the number of characters requested in the output string and with the baud rate. It may be computed as the following:

=+ n 15000

t 9.9

b

where:

t = average response time in ms

n = the number of characters in the string including <CR> and <LF> b = the baud rate

Example:

With a baud rate of 38400, and an output string containing temperature units, 2‐color temperature and ambient (20 characters), the average digital response time would be the following:

t = 9.9 +

20 15000

= 17.7ms

 

38400

 

Note that the analog output response time is not affected by baud rate or the number of characters transmitted in the burst string.
