Front Panel Pointer Control to Line 2 (F2)
The Front Panel Pointer Control to Line 2 (F2) assigns the view pointer control to
display line 2 (lower line of the display, or the virtual display line if line 2 is
disabled) and shows what is on the display. This allows the operator to know
which line will be configured or accessed.
Example:
@123F2
Acknowledge:
@123 Active Display shows Peak A in Lb
Other Display shows Load A in Lb
Value Command (V) for one or both channels
The value command for one channel is used to read the numerical value of a desired item
and unit without altering the front panel display. The format is V(item number)(unit
number)(repeat), where the item and unit numbers can be found using the question mark
command (see above), and the repeat number must be 0,1, or 2. Choosing repeat 1 will
make the Model 9840 send you the desired value once. Choosing repeat 2 will make the
Model 9840 send the value at approximately 3 second intervals. Choosing repeat 0 will
turn off any values that are being sent by a repeat 2 command. Note: when choosing to
view Limits, use "00" for the unit part of the command.
Example:
@123V01021
Acknowledge:
@123 Peak A 55.676 N
Example 2:
@123V00002
Acknowledge 2:
@123 Load A 120.45 Lb
@123 Load A 125.29 Lb
.....
@123 Load A 137.81 Lb
The value command for both channels is similar to the command for one channel with the
following exceptions:
The item numbers available for two channel value display are 50 (Cells AB), 51 (Peak
AB), and 52 (Valley AB).
The format is V(item number)(unit number channel A) (unit number channel B)(repeat).
where the item must be 50, 51, or 52 and unit numbers can be found using the question
mark command (see above). Make sure to use the proper unit numbers for the proper cell
type. A unit number of 08 for a torque cell will result in an unusable argument message.
