NUMSEN
(Number of Sensors): sets the number of sensors to be monitored. When
using the MND to display readings from mul ple sensors, the sensor addresses must
begin at 1 and increment sequen ally (see note above).
REGNUM
(Register Number): sets the register number to be displayed. The readings of
APG sensors are stored in register 30303.
NOTE: the register number is entered using only the last 3 digits of the full register
number. For example, register 30303 would be entered as 303, or register 40401
would be entered as 401.
FUNCTN
(Func on): sets the func on code for the register to be displayed; 3 = holding
resister, 4 = input register. Sensor readings are stored in input registers, while sensor
parameter values are stored in holding registers.
REGTYP
(Register Type): sets the bit type of the register to be displayed. Op ons are:
signed, 8 bit, low byte (S8L) signed, 16 bit (S16)
signed, 8 bit, high byte (S8H) unsigned, 16 bit (U16)
unsigned, 8 bit, low byte (U8L) signed, 32 bit (S32)
unsigned, 8 bit, high byte (U8H) unsigned, 32 bit (U32)
NOTE: the readings of APG’s sensors are stored as an unsigned 32-bit value. Refer
to the sensor’s user manual for a list of register numbers and their corresponding
register types.
SCANRT
(Scan Rate): determines how o en the MND polls the sensor(s) (in seconds)
when opera ng in Master mode.
