*5 This parameter can be used only when the detection mode of the sensor ampli-
fier is pea k-to-peak hold. A reading error occurs when the mode is set to other 
than peak-to-peak hold.
This parameter may be used for judging the outer diameter of cylinders, in order 
to read the peak and bottom values during measurement.
*6 When you do not use the calculation function, a reading error occurs.
*7 This
 parameter cannot be written when the key lock function is used.
*8 This parameter can be written only if the sensor amplifier meets the two conditions:
- The timing type parameter is set to "external timing."
- The input (pink/purple wire) function selection 2 parameter is set to "bank B."
*9 These parameters can be read/written to only the main unit (ID: 01) of sensor 
amplifiers.
*10 These parameters are available only when the calculation function is used.
Calculations other than for standard difference display are ef
fective only on the 
main unit (ID:01). These parameters read the R.V. value (synchronized with the 
calculation results) of the ma in/expansion unit(s) for the main unit to calculate 
the results.
For example, set the instance ID to "15" (DEC) and the attribute ID to 67 (HEX) 
and send the command when you read the value of the expansion unit on which 
calculation result of the main unit is based.
Calculations for standard difference display are effective only on the expansion 
units (ID:02 to ID:10). These parameters rea d the R.V. value (synchronized with 
the calculation results) of the main/expansion unit(s) for the expansion unit to 
calculate the results.
For example, set the instanc
e ID to "35" (DEC) and the attribute ID to 65 (HEX) 
and send the command when you read the value of the main unit (ID:01) on 
which calculation result of the expansion unit (ID:03) is based.
This read command is  useful when you  use the calculation function with
the detection mode set to hold detection (peak hold) and when you read
the R.V. value of the main/expansion  unit(s) for calculation as well as th
e
calculation results.
The read command for the P.V. value can read the held values, while that
for the R.V. value reads the raw value when the command is received.
Therefore, the read R.V. value is not synchronized with the latest values.
This read command can read the R.V. value of each sensor amplifier for
calculatin
g the held values.
The read R.V. values are synchronized with the held values and eliminates
the influence of communication response delay.
*11 An ASCII character string is sent back in response data (4 bytes). The data type 
is DINT.
For "GT-7", the response is "47542D37h".
*12 An ASCII character string is sent back in response data (16 bytes). The data 
type is STRING.
For "GT-71A*/75A*", the response is 
"47542D3731412A2F3735412A00000000h".s
