3.2 Output Data Formats
There are four formats in which data can be output.
• TS0 + ESC T + FM0 (outputs measured values in ASCII mode)
• TS0 + ESC T + FM1 (outputs measured values in Binary mode)
• TS1 + ESC T + LF (outputs parameter setting values)
• TS2 + ESC T + LF (outputs information on engineering unit and decimal point)
3.2.1 Output Format of Measured Values in ASCII Mode
When the TS0, ESC T, and FM0 commands are received, the measured values and
computed results are output as ASCII codes. When the ESC T command is received
immediately after the TS0 command, the recorder transfers the internal data to the RS-
422-A transmission buffer.
