VICI EUT Universal Electric Actuator - Manual (Page 17)


IFM[n] Sets the actuator response mode to [n], determining how the actuator responds to action
commands, where n = 0 = no response string
1 = basic response string
2 = extended response string (required for BCD interface
Modes available: All
Example
Command:
IFM0<enter>
Turns off all responses to action commands
LG[n] Sets the actuator response mode to [n],
where n = 0 = no extra characters in the response string
1 = response includes “ = “, to emulate a VICI microelectric actuator
Modes available: All
Example
Command:
LG1<enter>
Sets response to include extra characters
LRN Causes the actuator to “learn” and record the locations of a two position valve’s physical
stops. When the process is completed, the valve is set to position A.
Modes available: Two position with stops (mode 1) (factory default)
See also AM command
Example
Command:
LRN<enter>
Iniates the learning process
NP[nn] Sets or displays the current setting for the number of ports (two position) or positions
(multiposition) on the valve attached to the actuator,
where nn = 2 – 40 (must be an even number).
Modes available: Two position without stops (2), multiposition (3)
Example (two position, mode 2)
Command:
NP<enter>
Returns: NPnn [0x0D] (nn = current setting for number of ports)
Example (multiposition, mode 3)
Command:
NP6<enter>
Sets the number of positions to 6
SB[nnnn] Sets the baud rate of the serial port,
where nnnn = 48, 96, 192, 384, 576, or 1152
Modes available: All
Example
Command:
SB192<enter>
Sets the baud rate for the serial port to 19200
SM[l] Sets the direction of rotation for the actuator,
where l = F = Forward (toward the next highest numeric position)
R = Reverse (toward the next lowest numeric position)
A = Auto (shortest route)
Optional Serial Interface
