CMG-6TD

Command-line interface

The ADC within the unit outputs data at 2,000 samples per second, so taps
can have sample rates between 1 and 1,000 samples per second.

The arguments tap­0 to tap­3 are the sample rates at each tap in turn,

starting with the highest. You must ensure that each rate is lower than the
previous one by a factor of 2, 4, 5, 8 or 10. Non-integer values are not

allowed.

For example:

1000 250 125 25 samples/sec
500 100 5 1
samples/sec

200 100 20 4 samples/sec
400 40 20 10
samples/sec

As long as you specify the initial taps, you can omit later ones. The command
fills in the value of the missing taps, using a decimation factor of 2 where

possible. Thus, the following commands are equivalent:

400 40 20 10 samples/sec

and

400 40 samples/sec

7.4.2 SET­TAPS

Syntax: tap­0 tap­1 tap­2 tap­3 SET­TAPS

Sets which components are output under normal conditions, and at which

tap(s).

tap­0 to tap­3 are integers below 8, whose binary bits represent the Z (1), N

(2) and E (4) components respectively. Each one sets which components are

output at that tap under normal conditions.

For example, if you issue

1 5 7 0 SET-TAPS

tap 1 will output only the Z component (1);

tap 2 will output the Z and E components ( 1 + 4 = 5 );

tap 3 will output all three components ( 1 + 2 + 4 = 7 ); and

tap 4 will not output anything; and

To set triggered output streams, you should use the TRIGGERED command

described below.
