IKA C-MAG HS 7 control Manual De Instrucciones página 23

› Character format: character composition according to data format
in DIN 66022 for start-stop operation. 1 start bit, 7 character bits,
1 parity bit (even), 1 stop bit.
› Transmission speed: 9,600 bit / s.
› Data flow control: none.
› Access procedure: data transfer from the device to the computer takes
place only at the computer's request.
Command syntax and format
The following applies to the command set:
› Commands are generally sent from the computer (Master)
to the lab device (Slave).
› The lab device only sends at the computer's request.
Even fault indications cannot be sent spontaneously from
the lab device to the computer (automation system).
› Commands are transmitted in capital letters.
› Commands and parameters including successive parameters
are separated by at least one space (Code: hex 0x20).
› Each individual command (incl. parameters and data) and
each response are terminated with Blank CR LF
(Code: hex 0x20 hex 0x0d hex 0x20 hex 0x0A)
and have a maximum length of 80 characters.
› The decimal separator in a number is a dot (Code: hex 0x2E).
The above details correspond as far as possible to the recommendations
of the NAMUR working party (NAMUR recommendations for the design of
electrical plug connections for analogue and digital signal transmission on
individual items of laboratory control equipment, rev. 1.1).
The NAMUR commands and the additional specific IKA commands serve
only as low level commands for communication between the lab device
and the PC. With a suitable terminal or communications program these
commands can be transmitted directly to the lab device. The IKA software
labworldsoft ® , provides a convenient tool for controlling lab device and
collecting data under MS Windows, and includes graphical entry features, for
motor speed ramps for example.
