Scan rate may be limited based on output format.
FPS
Get/Set
Sets the number of frames to output during a scan, or retrieves the current setting. Once this
number of frames is met, the DSA will stop scanning and return to READY mode.
A Frame contains a sampled pressure value per channel output (8 or 16 channels total) plus time
stamp, frame number, temperatures, and other additional information defined by the data output
configured in the DSA.
The FPS variable can be used to scan for a timed duration using the following equation:
FPS = RATE x TIME (in seconds)
FPS <number of frames>
Where <number of frames> is the number of frames per scan. Valid values are 0 to 4294967295.
If number of frames is set to 0, the DSA will scan indefinitely until the scan is manually stopped
using the STOP command.
FPS <number of frames>

Prompt when ready to accept a new command.
