Supported device types and versions
This protocol supports data reading from Hydrolab DATASONDE 4a. The device must be in the TTY communication mode.
Communication line configuration
The line parameters:
- Communication line category: Serial.
- Baud rate 2400,4800,9600 or 19200 Bd (according to settings of DATASONDE).
- The number of stop bits according to settings of DATASONDE.
- The number of data bits according to settings of DATASONDE.
- Parity according to settings of DATASONDE.
Other parameters are stated in the chapter Communication lines.
Communication station configuration
- Communication protocol: HYDROLAB DataSonde 4a
- The station address is not used.
Station protocol parameters
You can configure the following I/O tags:
Table 1
Keyword | Full name | Meaning | Unit | Default value |
---|---|---|---|---|
WT | Wait Timeout | The delay between reading the line. | ms | 1000 ms |
MWR | Max Wait Retry | Maximum retries of reading the response until it is completed. | - | 35 |
String with protocol parameters is written according to this rule:
Key_word=value;Key_word=value; ...
Example:
WT=2000;MWR=40;
If a keyword with a valid value has not been found in the initial string, the default value is used according to Table 1.
I/O tag configuration
The received values can be AI (Analog input) or TIR (Time interval - input).
These data are separated by blank space and ended by CR and LF characters. The address defines the index of value ranging from 1 (or as a hexadecimal number with a hash at the beginning, e.g. #0A). Value type TIR may be used for value with index 1 – it is a device time.
