set first. Refer to paragraph 2.7.6 Print Menu for proper set up.
• To print data, press Print/Units button with a short press. The display acknowledges by momentarily blinking off.
NOTE: If you hold this button down too long, the display will advance to another measuring unit.
4.12 RS232 Commands
All communication is accomplished using standard ASCII format. Characters shown in the following table are ac-
knowledged by the Indicator. Invalid command response "ES" error indicates the Indicator has not recognized the
command. Commands sent to the Indicator must be terminated with a carriage return (CR) or carriage return-line line
feed (CRLF). Data output by the Indicator is always terminated with a carriage return - line feed (CRLF).
