The command code for monitoring a parameter is 01. The data required is:
• Parameter number (least significant byte followed by most)
• Size of parameter to read (2 or 4 bytes).
To monitor a parameter, the following message (series of bytes) should be sent to the T200:
Byte Value Meaning
1 06 Length of command
2 00 Address
3 01 Command (read param)
4 P0 Param no (least significant)
5 P1 Param no (most significant)
6 SZ Parameter size (2/4)
7 CK Checksum
T200 Acknowledgement to Monitor Parameter
The acknowledge ‘data’ for a parameter read command is the ‘value of the parameter’ to be read. The value may be 2 or
4 bytes long, and will be transmitted in the order of least significant to most significant bytes:
Acknowledge Two Byte Parameter Read
