Appendix E, ALPHABETICAL LISTING OF COMMANDS
RT[.]
SEN [n]
SEN.
E-20
The lowest five bits in n
following table:
bit number bit negated
0 data = 7 bits
1 no parity bit
2 even parity
3 echo disabled
4 prompt disabled
Ratio output
In integer mode the RT command reports a number equivalent to 1000×X/ADC1
where X is the value that would be returned by the X command and ADC1 is the
value that would be returned by the ADC1 command.
In floating point mode the RT. command reports a number equivalent to X/ADC1.
Full-scale sensitivity control
The value of n sets the full-scale sensitivity according to the following table,
depending on the setting of the IMODE control:
n full-scale sensitivity
IMODE=0
3 10 nV
4 20 nV
5 50 nV
6 100 nV
7 200 nV
8 500 nV
9 1 µV
10 2 µV
11 5 µV
12 10 µV
13 20 µV
14 50 µV
15 100 µV
16 200 µV
17 500 µV
18 1 mV
19 2 mV
20 5 mV
21 10 mV
22 20 mV
23 50 mV
24 100 mV
25 200 mV
26 500 mV
27 1 V
Floating point mode can only be used for reading the sensitivity, which is reported in
volts or amps. For example, if IMODE = 0 and the sensitivity is 1 mV the command
SEN would report 18 and the command SEN. would report +1.0E-03. If IMODE was
control the other RS232 parameters according to the
