Command Descriptions
This section describes commands and provides sample outputs.
See Appendix III: Command Summary for a summarized command list.
When entering commands:
• Input commands to the 19plus V2 in upper or lower case letters and
register commands by pressing the Enter key.
• The 19plus V2 sends an error message if an invalid command is entered.
• (if OutputExecutedTag=N) If the 19plus V2 does not return an
S> prompt after executing a command, press the Enter key to get the
S> prompt.
• If a new command is not received within 2 minutes after the completion
of a command, the 19plus V2 returns to the quiescent (sleep) state.
• If in quiescent state, re-establish communications by selecting Connect in
Seaterm232’s Communications menu or pressing the Enter key.
• If the 19plus V2 is transmitting data and you want to stop it, press the
Esc key or type ^C. Then press the Enter key. Alternatively, select Abort
in Seaterm232’s Command menu.
• Commands to enable a parameter or output (such as enabling a voltage
channel) can be entered with the argument as Y or 1 for yes, and N or 0
for no (for example, Volt0=y and Volt0=1 are equivalent; both enable
voltage channel 0).
• The 19plus V2 cannot have samples with different scan lengths (more or
fewer data fields per sample) in memory. If the scan length is changed by
commanding it to add or subtract a data field (such as an external voltage),
the 19plus V2 must initialize logging. Initializing logging sets the sample
number and cast number to 0, so the entire memory is available for
recording data with the new scan length. Initializing logging should only
be performed after all previous data has been uploaded. Therefore,
commands that change the scan length (MM, MP, PType=, Volt0=,
Volt1=, Volt2=, Volt3=, Volt4=, Volt5=, SBE38=, GTD=, DualGTD=,
Optode=) prompt the user for verification before executing, to prevent
accidental overwriting of existing data.
• The 19plus V2 responds only to GetCD, GetSD, GetCC, GetEC,
ResetEC, GetHD, DS, DCal, TS, SL, SLT, GetLastSamples:x, QS, and
Stop while logging. If you wake the 19plus V2 while it is logging (for
example, to send DS to check on logging progress), it temporarily stops
logging. In Moored mode, logging resumes when it goes to sleep (either
by sending QS or after the 2-minute timeout). In Profiling mode, logging
resumes immediately.
• The 19plus V2 responds only to GetCD, GetSD, GetCC, GetEC,
ResetEC, GetHD, DS, DCal, TS, SL, SLT, GetLastSamples:x, QS, and
Stop while waiting to start logging (if you sent StartLater but logging
has not started yet). To send any other commands, send Stop, send the
desired commands to modify the setup, and then send StartLater again.
Entries made with the commands are permanently stored in the 19plus V2 and
remain in effect until you change them.
• The only exception occurs if the electronics are removed from the housing
and disconnected from the battery Molex connector (see Appendix II:
Electronics Disassembly/Reassembly). Upon reassembly, reset the date
and time (DateTime=) and initialize logging (InitLogging).
In Profiling mode, the 19plus V2 does
not respond to TS, SL, SLT, or
GetLastSamples:x while logging or
waiting to start logging.
