6 SDI-12-commands and responses
The OTT SVR 100 communicates using the physical RS-485 interface via the SDI-12 transfer protocol. In this technical
documentation, you will find a detailed description of the SDI-12 commands implemented in the SDI-12 transfer protocol.
Further information on the SDI-12 standard can be found in the document "SDI-12; A Serial-Digital Interface Standard for
Microprocessor-Based Sensors; Version 1.3" (see website "www.sdi-12.org").
All advanced, manufacturer-specific SDI-12 commands on the OTT SVR 100 begin with "
O
" for OTT. With these commands
it is possible to configure the OTT SVR 100, for example using the "SDI-12 transparent mode" on a data logger or with the
OTT USB/SDI-12 interface (accessory).
