The V77 ADM-1 provides three Reporting Methods. These are Command (via data
commands only), Immediate (upon exiting configuration), and Schedule (where
reporting begins at a specified time).
When Command Reporting Method is selected, the V77 ADM-1 will report data
messages to the host module only when the RAn and RSn commands are issued. If
the V77 ADM-1 receives an RAn (Read All Buffered Samples) command, all data
messages currently stored in the buffer of the selected channel(s) are transmitted to
the host-controller. Each time the V77 ADM-1 receives an RSn (Report a Single
Sample if available) command, the oldest data message available is transmitted to the
host-controller. The RAn and RSn commands may be issued to the V77 ADM-1 in
any of the three Reporting Methods.
When Immediate Reporting Method is selected, the V77 ADM-1 will report data
messages when they are available. If no data message is available, no report is made.
Reporting begins immediately after exiting the Configuration Main Menu
