Digital Barometers
SSD/Operating Manual 24th February 1993 PTB200-O0284-1.1
The basic definition consists of the current and new format:
>FORM<cr>
(current output format appears here)
? (type new format here)<cr>
The output format consists of the pressure reading area, pressure unit
area, carriage return and line feed, e.g.:
"\PPPP.PP\ \uuuu\\r\n"
where
\PPPP.PP\ pressure reading area
\uuuu\ pressure unit area
\r carriage return
\n line feed
An example of changing the output pressure resolution from two to one
decimal (0.01 ⇒ 0.1):
>FORM<cr>
"\PPPP.PP\ \uuuu\\r\n"
? \PPPP.P\ \uuuu\\r\n<cr>
Example of adding leading spaces:
>FORM<cr>
"\PP.PPP\ \uuuu\\r\n"
? \PPPP.PPP\ \uuuu\\r\n<cr>
Example of adding text to the output:
>FORM<cr>
"\PPPP.PP\ \uuuu\\r\n"
? Barometric pressure = \PPPP.PP\ \uuuu\\r\n<cr>
Example of omitting the pressure unit from the output:
>FORM<cr>
"\PPPP.PP\ \uuuu\\r\n"
? \PPPP.PP\\r\n<cr>
