Commands C1, C2 and C3 configure the 8020-59 for single channel, 16-Channel multiplexing or
32-Channel multiplexing, respectively.
Note: The default value for the lower limit is zero, so for cases where this is acceptable, there is
no need to explicitly set the lower limit.
Typing "D" and the channel # <Enter> displays the limits and slope for that channel. Typing
"D0" <ENTER> displays the limits and slope for all channels.
Typing "E" and the channel # <Enter> ENABLES that channel (16 and 32-Channel mode only)
when multiplexing. Typing "E0" <ENTER> enables all channels.
Commands ME and MD enable and disable the readings monitor.
To set the maximum digits, slope and gage type for each transducer, type "U" and the channel #
(comma) maximum digits (comma) slope (+/-) (comma) gage type <Enter>
Example: *U1,10590,-,1 <Enter>
To set the minimum digits type "L" and the channel # (comma) minimum digits <Enter>
Example: *L1,9990 <Enter>
Command RD disabled the VALID line from activating when a non-successful vibrating wire
sensor conversion takes place. A high level on the VALID line would then indicate that a
successful conversion took place.
Command RE enables the VALID line to go "Ready" (high) after each CLOCK pulse while the
ENABLE line is high. The VALID output then indicates that the CLOCK and ENABLE
sequencing was proper but does not reflect the success of the vibrating wire sensor conversion.
The default state for the 8020-59 is READY ENABLED.
Typing "N" and the channel # <Enter> DISABLES that channel (16 and 32-Channel mode only)
when multiplexing. Typing "N0" <ENTER> disables all channels.
Typing "X4" <Enter> will allow calibration of the 4mA set point.
Typing "X12" <Enter> will allow calibration of the 12mA set point.
Typing "X20" <Enter> will allow calibration of the 20mA set point.
