TT
Configurable Text Output Mode
TT<CR>
Data Output Command
Response Format: Variable
TT<N><CR>
Set
<N>
specifies the output format. The value can be set with a command such as TT15<CR>
(sets the format to 15). To start receiving data, send the command TT<CR>. This output
mode allows you to turn on and off parts of the serial output message, which can make the
data simpler to process and reduce the number of bytes being transmitted.

Notation Description Length (Bytes)
TT Current Value of TT Setting Varies
L Length * 1000 10
V Velocity * 1000 10
Q Quality Factor 2
S Status 2
T Temperature * 100 4
Example:
To set TT to 79, and then start receiving data:
1) Send
TT79<CR>
2) Send
TT<CR>
The LS8000-3 will start transmitting data in this format:
79,+000000370,000012348,15,63,3125<CR>
79,+000000494,000012347,15,63,3125<CR>
