User Manual
CP Series
Version 3.1 – June 2020
During the shot, a watchdog command (#XO) has to be sent every second to the PowerBox so it can make
sure that everyone is up and running. The PowerBox will answer by !XO. If the watchdog is not sent, the
shot will be stopped.
The answer to the command "#ON" (start shot) will always be "!ON" even in the case where the PowerBox
is not able to start the shot for some reason. The answer "!ON" only means that the command "#ON" has
been received and acknowledged. To check if the generator is shooting or not, always refer to the status
(command "?ST").
On the next page, you will find the complete description of the protocol.
