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 42i 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/IP 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 of the instrument's identification number plus 128.
