Appendix B
C-Link Protocol Commands
This appendix provides a description of the C-Link protocol commands
that can be used to remotely control a Model 5028i analyzer using a
host device such as a PC or a datalogger. C-Link protocol may be used
over RS-232, RS-485, or Ethernet. C-Link functions can be accessed
over Ethernet using TCP port 9880.
Streaming data is sent out the serial port or the Ethernet port on a user-
defined periodic basis. Streaming data over Ethernet is only generated
when a connection is made on TCP port 9881.
Up to three simultaneous connections per protocol may be made over
Ethernet.

Each command sent to the analyzer over the serial port must begin with
the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)
symbol or byte value equivalent to the instrument's identification
number plus 128. For example, if the instrument ID is set to 14, then
each command must begin with the ACSII character code 142 decimal.
