5.2.4 S—Start Streaming
When S is issued, the ADS1x31REF begins printing raw output codes from the installed ADS device in
hexadecimal format, separated by new lines. The device iterates continuously until a character is received
from the serial port.
S is used primarily by the EVM software for data collection.
5.2.5 D—Collect One Sample
Issuing the D command causes the ADS1x31REF to report the latest collected sample from the installed
ADS device. The sample is displayed in raw hexadecimal.
5.2.6 C—Set Channel
This command has no effect on the installed ADS device because there is only one channel.
• C0—set to channel 0
• C—(with no arguments) prints the current channel, always CHAN=0
5.2.7 Q—Query Parameters
Q causes the ADS1x31REF to issue a coded string summarizing the current settings. The format of the
string is:
P0R[F,S]OIC0
followed by a carriage-return and linefeed.
