H-3521

SDI-12 Command and Response Protocol 5-15

5.14 Extended Read Measure Rate and Write Measure Rate
When the H-3521 is put in power mode 3 it makes continuous measurements based on a measure
rate. This command is for reading/writing that measure rate value. The measure rate range is 0-
255 minutes. When the user sets the measure rate to 0 then the H-3521 makes continuous
measurements as fast as the H-3521 will measure, which is about 6 seconds by default. The
factory default is 1 minute measure rate.
