Sample period

The sample period is the next parameter in the serial interface parameter menu.
The sample period is the time period in seconds between temperature measure-
ments transmitted from the serial interface. If the sample rate is set to 5, for in-
stance, the bath transmits the current measurement over the serial interface
approximately every five seconds. The automatic sampling is disabled with a
sample period of 0. The sample period is indicated by,
SAmPLE
Press "SET" to choose to set the sample period. The current sample period
value will be displayed.
SA= 1
Adjust the value with "UP" or "DOWN" and then use "SET" to set the sample
rate to the displayed value.
SA= 60
8.12.3

Duplex mode

The next parameter is the duplex mode. The duplex mode may be set to full du-
plex or half duplex. With full duplex any commands received by the bath via
the serial interface will be immediately echoed or transmitted back to the de-
vice of origin. With half duplex the commands will be executed but not echoed.
The duplex mode parameter is indicated by,
Press "SET" to access the mode setting.

rameter enables (on) or disables (off) transmission of a linefeed character (LF,
ASCII 10) after transmission of any carriage-return. The linefeed parameter is
indicated by,
