RS-232 Serial Port Operation
Overview
All functions, except utilities and switch settings, can be controlled remotely via RS-232
serial port operation.
Note
A specialized cable, available from Fluke Biomedical, is required for RS-
232 remote control. Refer to the current Fluke Biomedical Price List for
availability, part number information, and price.
Baud rate is adjustable to 300, 600, 1200, or 2400 from the UTILITY MENU as shown in
the previous section. Parity is off and there are 2 stop bits.
Remote commands can be sent in lower case or in upper case letters and all command
strings must be terminated with a carriage return [CR] and/or a line feed [LF]; that is,
[command][CR][LF]. Illegal entries cause the error message "? CR LF" to be returned,
and legal entries return " * CR LF". This process can take up to one second during which
time all other inputs are ignored.
The function entered is displayed on the front panel display of the medSim 300B.
To prevent functional inconsistencies, some commands can cause changes in certain
parameters: for example, entering an arrhythmia turns off PVCs per minute, and starting
Swan-Ganz sets ECG to normal sinus rhythm.
Remote Commands
By category, the following is a list of RS-232 remote commands and their descriptions.
Note
The command is preceded by a bullet (•), which is not part of the command
string.
