7.4 Command Format

All operator commands start with a three character command code (mnemonic)

indicating the parameter to be monitored or changed. See Section 7.7 for a full list of

commands.

This mnemonic is normally an abbreviation of the associated parameter making them

easier to remember, for example, entering the mnemonic ‘DOS’ displays the Detector

Output Status on the User Terminal.

Following the mnemonic may be one or two indexes before the required information is

displayed.

For example;

SPT

After the mnemonic and the indexes (if any), the detector will display the current value

of the parameter. A colon ‘:’ is used to separate this from the mnemonic and indexes.

Therefore, to view the current value of the Detector Speed Threshold the following

command would be entered and then the result would be displayed:

SPT SPT:50

i.e. Speed Threshold is 50 km/h

To modify the value, the full command can be entered followed by an equal sign ‘=‘ and

the new value required.

Note: Write access may need to be entered first before data can be modified; see page

84, and most commands have configurable range limits to limit the range of values that

can be entered.
