Trimble ASCII Interface Protocol (TAIP)
C.16 PT Port Characteristic
Data String Format:
AAAA,B,C,D
Table C-16. Port Characteristic Data String Descriptions
This message defines the characteristics for the primary TAIP port.
Most TAIP using sensors use the following default port characteristics (consult the
Installation and Operator's Manual):
• 4800 baud
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
*
Note – The characteristics set by this message will be stored in the sensor's memory. The
Lassen-SK8 family of sensors do not include an internal battery but provide a battery
back-up input line that may be used to retain memory when main power is removed.
*
Note – If you do not use battery back-up, all port characteristics will reset to the default
after power is removed.
*
Note – The PT command uses commas between data fields.
