DR
FUNCTION: Configures Secondary Communication channel (DPRAM) data update rate.
DESCRIPTION:
DR specifies the data update rate as 2
n
samples between updates. The controller creates a record
and places it in the DPRAM location at this rate.
ARGUMENTS: DR n where
n is an integer in the range 0 to 8. 0 turns off the secondary communication channel. n=1 through
8 specifies data update rate of 2n sample periods. The sample period is specified by the TM
command and has a default value of 1000 (1msec).
Note: If a small sample period and a small update rate is used, the controller may become
noticeably slower as a result of maintaining a high update rate.
