Remote Command Syntax
A computer or a medTester with medCheck can be used to control the Analyzer. For both
controllers, start remote commands with a command verb and add optional parameters
(values that further define the remote command).
Remote commands are not case sensitive; either upper or lower case letters can be used
anywhere in the command, and the Analyzer understands it. The differences in syntax for
each controller are explained below (n represents the parameter value).
Command Syntax for medTester
When the Analyzer is controlled with a medTester, separate the command verb from the
parameter list with a colon and separate each parameter with a semicolon. Do not put
spaces anywhere in the command line. The syntax is:
CommandVerb:parameter=n;parameter=n
Example: makearm:hr=60,envshift=50
Command Syntax for Computer
When the Analyzer is controlled with a computer, separate the command verb from the
parameter list with a space or a colon. Separate the parameters with a comma or
semicolon. The syntax is:
CommandVerb parameter=n,parameter--r-
Example: makearm hr=60,envshift=50
or
CommandVerb:parameter=n;parameter=n
Example: makearm:hr=60;envshift=50
Command Parameters
Command parameters are values specified to further define remote commands. For
example, different heart rates can be specified for the makearm command.
If no command parameters are specified, the Analyzer uses current values. Current values
are either the default values or the values used in a previous command.
Parameters for each command are described in the Command Descriptions section later
in this chapter.
Default Values
Default values are reassigned to all remote commands each time the Analyzer is powered
up. The Analyzer uses default values for the first command given to it if no parameters
have been specified. For example, the command makearm has no parameters defining it,
so the Analyzer uses default values. However, if "malcearm:hr=30" were specified as a
parameter that sets the heart rate at 30 BPM, the Analyzer would use that value instead of
the 80 BPM default value.
