What This Manual Contains This Manual covers only the ProScale-RF Digital Display Receiver It is intended to supplement the ProScale manual part number 800-1097-001, covering the operation of the Wireless Digital Display. Terminology This section provides a brief description of terms used within this manual.
ECTION NSTALLATION The ProScale RF receiver is simple to install and connect to a PC. 1. Connect the low voltage DC power supply (provided) to the rear of the receiver. Plug the power supply into an AC outlet. The top green LED on the front of the receiver will illuminate.
ONFIGURATION Depending on the receiver model you have purchased, the unit has the ability to receive signals from either a Single ProScale RF display or from Multiple ProScale RF displays. After the receiver is connected to the computer and power applied, the unit can be configured for operation.
V – Firmware version ID. No parameters. S – System ID. Used to configure the receiver to only accept signals from ProScale-RF displays that have the same system ID. This prevents signals from other ProScale-RF displays with different system ID’s within radio range from being received. The default is O –...
Output Modes There are six output modes available on the ProScale RF receiver. The first five are ASCII text formats and the sixth mode is a binary data mode that provides partial message emulation for Accurate Technology’s ProRF™ two- way radio system. This provides backward compatibility for applications that were designed using the ProRF system.
The status information is used in conjunction with the drift monitor feature of the ProScale General Purpose display. If the drift monitor is enabled on the display and movement is detected outside the drift tolerance range, the display will indicate a drift condition and a drift signal will be sent on the RF channel.
Byte 10 Byte 11 Bytes 12 - 19 Note: In the ProScale RF emulation mode, bytes 7 through 10 of the message are fixed at 1, 0, 1, and 1 respectively. ProScale RF Receiver User Manual Page 12 of 20...
Deleting a previous measurement record The ProScale General Purpose display has the capability of transmitting a “delete previous measurement” signal by pressing the F2 key on the digital display. This causes the text “DEL” to be displayed instead of a position. This can be used to indicate the previously recorded entry in a file needs to be removed.
Command Format Examples The following examples demonstrate how to configure various parameters of the ProScale RF receiver system. <ENTER> is the enter key on the PC. If an invalid command letter is entered, the receiver will provide the following response: Use t, s, o, d, v, b, m or e.
(Factory Default = <CR/LF> (0)) To change the terminator mode to CR only (1), type: T1<ENTER> Use 0 (zero) for CR/LF and 1 for CR only The receiver responds with: Terminator now = <CR> (1) Accurate Technology Inc. Page 15 of 20...
