1 Preface Operating Manual This document describes the RS232 interface of the Modul1000 and the "ASCII" and "Binary" communication protocol. In case the leak detector shall be controlled via RS232 (for example START, STOP, ZERO, etc.), select control location "RS232" or "local and RS232" at the leak detector (see Technical Handbook).
2 Interface Connecting Cable Pin 2 3 5 Name RXD TXD GND Signal Receive data (Modul1000 → PC) Transmit data (PC → Modul1000) Reference ground Operating Manual The interface (RS232) is wired as data communication equipment (DCE). The connection is made via a 9-way sub-D socket at the leak detector. The signals are assigned as follows: The other pins are not used.
Operating Manual 3 ASCII Protocol 3.1 Command Format In ASCII protocol any command starts with « * (ASCII code 42dec)» and is finished with the end sign selected (e.g. CR). There is no differentiation between upper and lower case. A blank is required between the command and the parameter, no other blanks are allowed. There is a short and an extended form of the command. Either the short or the extended command must be used, no other abbreviations are allowed.

3.5 Calibration Operating Manual Two different kinds of calibration can be called via „*CAL“: 3.5.1 Internal Automatic Calibration When the leak detector is in STAND-BY mode the command „*CAL“ evokes an internal autmatical calibration. The process is completely automatically. Via „STATus:CAL?“ the computer can realise if the calibration routine is finished. 3.5.
Binary Protocol 4.1 Command Structure In binary protocol the command to the leak detector always starts with STX (0x05). It is followed by a byte which indicates the length of the telegram (inclusive Start-Byte and checksum). The next byte is the command number. The command byte may be followed by additional information (parameter and/or data). Please refer to "Command list" (chapter 4.5) for detailed information about command number, parameter and data format.
