3. Outputting Data (RS-232C)
The CA-100Plus can output the following four kinds of information to the computer when the CA-100Plus is set to
remote-control mode:
1 Measurement data (page 94)
2 Data recalled from memory (page 95)
3 Status information (page 96)
4 Error messages (page 97)
<When Data is Output>
• <CR> (carriage return) is used as the delimiter for data output by the CA-100Plus.
1 Measurement data
2 Data recalled from memory : Output when the command "Kxx" (xx is the memory channel number from which
3 Status information
4 Error messages
• Error messages "E25", "E26" will be output regardless of whether or not CA-100Plus is in remote-
control mode or not.
• By the contents of the error which occurred, It becomes Remote-OFF automatically.
<Notes on Data Output>
● If measurement data is not accepted by the computer within 0.5 seconds from the time preparation of the
measurement data set has been completed, the measurement data will be discarded and the preparations for the
next measurement data will begin. To signal that measurement data can be accepted by the computer, make the
CTS pin of the RS-232C terminal active.
● The CA-100Plus will not accept any commands from the computer within approximately 0.5 seconds after data
output has been completed.
● Data output will be interrupted and <CR> will be output in the following situations:
• A command was accepted in the middle of data output.
● If the CA-100Plus will not be controlled by the computer, it is recommended that the remote-control mode of
the CA-100Plus is not set. If the remote-control mode is set but the computer is not ready to accept data, the
time for one measurement becomes longer (by 0.5 seconds for each measuring probe being used) than the time
required if remote-control mode is canceled.
: Output after each measurement
data is desired) is input from the computer.
: Output when the command "Z" is input from the computer.
: Output when a malfunction occurs with the CA-100Plus; depending on error,
remote-control mode may be canceled.
