TISTATUS - Low-Profile Transducer Interface Status
This program is used to get status information from the SWIFT Low-Profile
Transducer Interface (TI). When the Low-Profile TI has encountered a problem
and is blinking an error code, this program can be used to easily interpret the
error. For certain errors this program may provide additional information. The
program also provides information such as the internal power supply voltages.
Note The power supply voltages displayed may be unreliable if the power
supplies are too low, as the circuit used to measure the power supply
also depends on the available power.
Syntax
The tistatus command requires two arguments:
tistatus port box
port is the communications serial port number
1 = COM1:
2 = COM2:
box is the Low-Profile TI communications address
1 = lowest possible address
9 = highest possible address
Example
