2. Commands
2.1. Flow reading
F read current flow rate. This command may be received in upper case or lower case. In
RS485 mode the “F” command must be preceded by an asterisk* and the address(macid). The
flow command reports the flow rate in the flow units chosen in the gas record (G7).
read F(cr) or *[aa]F(cr)
Sample reply: 121.32(cr)>
F1 streaming report of the flow rate. This command may be received in upper case or
lower case. In RS485 mode the “F1” command must be preceded by an asterisk* and the
address(macid). The flow command reports the flow rate in the flow units chosen in the gas
record (G7) in a continuous manner. The flow meter will continuously report the measured
flow readings until it receives an F0 command. This is useful when data logging a transitory
flow change or to plot a flow oscillation.
