(for a limited number of re-tries). Commands The following pages list the commands available to the Model 2010D and their implementation. Following the command list, a description of each command is presented with the formats of the command.
{seq name},{point} Timed Sequence {seq name},{point} Manual Sequence {status types} Get Status Error Codes If error responses are enabled, the Model 2010D may return the following error response codes: Undefined Command The command was not recognized. Check Sum Error checksum calculated 2010D did not match the checksum in the command.

Serial Communications Page 7-22 _________________________________________________________________ Timed Sequence (TS) This command causes a timed sequence to be initiated. sequence to be started is identified by the {seq name} field, which is the ASCII sequence name. The point at which to start the sequence can optionally be entered in the {point} field.
Serial Communications Page 7-23 _________________________________________________________________ continue from that point. If no sequence is active, the command will be ignored. @ TS , {AAA} [CHK]<CR> If a sequence is already active, the sequence will advance to the next point and the timed sequence will continue from that point (if it is the last point, the sequence will be terminated).
The Get Status command returns current status information about the Model 2010D. The status generally corresponds to information that is presented on the 2010D's status screens. The response will depend on the {status types} field, which is a list of from one to five characters that select the categories of status information that should be returned.

Serial Communications Page 7-25 _________________________________________________________________ The status selection characters can be strung together in the {status types} field in any order. The respective categories of data will be returned in the order in which these characters appear in the command. If a category of status information is requested that pertains to an option that has not been enabled, that information will be omitted from the returned data.

The Model 2010D can be accessed and controlled remotely via customer supplied software using any of the supplied protocols. In addition, Sabio offers “SabioComm”, a software package that allows a user to connect to the 2010D from a remote location and operate the calibrator or retrieve data.
Whichever technique is used, it is essential that all devices be calibrated in order to establish the correspondence between the 2010D's control and monitor voltages and the actual flow rate or ozone concentration.

Calibration In order to ensure the accuracy of the 2010D's Photometer, it should be calibrated periodically by comparing it to an ozone reference standard. This will only ensure that Photometer's measurements are accurate, but will also point out when there is a problem and maintenance is needed.
The following procedure may be followed to test the Photometer sample path for leaks: With the Model 2010D powered off and disconnected from power, remove the cover from the unit and put it aside. Using a 9/16” wrench, disconnect the hose connected to the fitting labeled Vacuum Source as shown on Figure 9-9.
Internal UV Ozone Photometer Page 9-26 Connect a flow standard to the output of the regulator. The flow standard must be capable of reading at least 1.4 Liters or 1400 SCCM. Refer to Figure 9-10 for details. Apply 35 PSI of zero air to the port labeled “AIR IN” on the rear panel of the photometer.
