Teledyne API Model 300M CO Analyzer Instruction Manual, 04033, Rev. A
name is the Data Channel name(must be enclosed in quotes)
number is the number of records to print, beginning with the most recent (if this parameter is not specified then all available records for the Data Channel are printed)
COMPACTVERBOSE refers to the report format
Verbose Data Report Format
There are two kinds of data reports: verbose (with a lot of detail) and compact (with just the data point values). The verbose format looks like the following:
D 31:10:06 0412 CONC : AVG COCNC1=6.8 PPM
This report uses the format of a leading first character (“D” in this example), a time stamp (“31:10:06”), and the instrument ID (“0412”).
The other fields in the report are the data collector name (“CONC”), the sampling mode (“AVG”), the data point (“COCNC1”), the data point value (“6.8”), and the units (“PPM”). Due to the length of the message, only one data point may be printed per line.
Compact Data Report Format
The compact format looks like the following:
D 31:10:06 0412 CONC : 1 6.8
The fields up to the colon are the same as for the verbose format, but the next fields are different. The fields following the colon are the line number (“1” in the example), and the data point value (“6.8”). Presumably the user (or remote computer) knows all of the other information about the data point value.
This report format is particularly useful when you are sampling more than one data point because up to five data points may be printed per line. The line number field is necessary because a single report may span multiple lines. A compact report with two data points, such as the PNUMTC Data Channel, looks like this:
D 31:10:06 0412 PNUMTC: 1 800.0 29.7
Example 1: To report the last 100 records from the CONC Data Channel in Verbose format type:
D REPORT “CONC” RECORDS=100 VERBOSE
Example 2: To report all the records from the PNUMTC Data Channel in Compact format type:
D REPORT “PNUMTC” COMPACT
