Giving the serial communication parameters The transmitter communicates via an RS232C serial interface. The transmitter can be polled or set on run mode with specific commands. The data format will be (factory settings): - 1 Start Bit - 7 Data Bits - 1 Stop Bit - Even Parity - 4800 bits per second, programmable to 19200 - Full Duplex - Serial Asynchronous - Configured as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) Give the communication parameters when using this terminal session for the first time; save them for future use. See instructions in the following tables.

Example: >r aw= aw= 0. 2000 aw T= 0. 2000 aw T= 25. 09 'C . . . 25. 20 'C . . . S Stopping the continuous outputting S Stops the continuous output. Also <ESC> can be used to stop outputting. INTV Setting the continuous outputting interval for the RUN mode INTV xxx yyy xxx= yyy= Example: >intv 1 Output interval: 1 S >intv 1 min Output interval: 1 MIN >intv 1 h Output interval: 1 H output interval (0. . . 255) unit (s, min or h) 26 __________________________________________________________________ M210474EN-B Chapter 5 ________________________________________________________________ Operation SEND Outputting the reading once In STOP mode: SEND In POLL mode: SEND aa aa = address of the transmitter when more than one transmitter is connected to a serial bus (0. . . 99) Example. >send aw= 0. 2 aw T= -47. 37 'C . . . If value is too long to fit to the allocated space or if there is an error in outputting, value is displayed with stars `*'. For example, aw=*. * aw T= 31. 0 'C The output mode can be changed with command FORM. SMODE Setting the serial interface mode SMODE x X= STOP/RUN/POLL STOP MODE: Transmitter in standby for serial commands. POLL MODE: Transmitter only responds to addressed commands >smode run Output mode : RUN >r 02:08:01. 03 aw= 02:08:04. 21 aw= <ESC> >smode stop Output mode 0. 2 aw T= 0. 2 aw T= -47. 13 'C . . . -47. 16 'C . . . : STOP VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 27 USER'S GUIDE____________________________________________________________________ SERI Serial line settings SERI b p d s b = bauds (300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200) p = parity (n = none, e = even, o = odd) d = data bits (7 or 8) s = stop bits (1 or 2) The settings can be changed one parameter at a time or all parameters at once: >SERI O 4800 O 7 1 >SERI 600 N 8 1 600 N 8 1 changing parity only changing all parameters ADDR Setting the transmitter address for use in POLL-mode. ADDR aa aa = address (0. . . 99) Example: >addr Address >addr 1 Address :0 :1 OPEN Temporarily opens transmitter from POLL-mode to receive serial commands OPEN nn nn = address of the transmitter (0. . . 99) The OPEN command sets the bus temporarily in STOP mode so that the SMODE command can be given. Example: open 4 Device: > 4 line opened for operator commands 28 __________________________________________________________________ M210474EN-B Chapter 5 ________________________________________________________________ Operation CLOSE Set transmitter in poll-mode CLOSE In STOP mode: command OPEN has no effect, CLOSE sets the transmitter temporarily in POLL mode In POLL mode: command OPEN sets the transmitter temporarily in STOP mode, command CLOSE returns the instrument to POLL mode Example: relative humidity calibration is performed at transmitter 2 which is in POLL mode >OPEN 2 >CRH . . . >CLOSE opens the line to transmitter 2 calibration started line closed Output Formatting FORM Serial output format FORM x x = formatter string Command format can be used to change the format of the output commands `SEND' and `R'.

[. . . ] Changes in temperature affect also on water desorption of the paper insulation around the transformer windings. Desorption of water from the insulation increases as temperature raises and the surrounded oil absorbs desorbed water. Moisture level in oil is thus a true indicator of moisture present in the paper insulation. In addition, it must be noted that capacity of oil to absorb water depends both on the chemical structure of the oil and the additives. [. . . ]
