RESET
Reset may be used to reset the BIC-II to the factory BIC mode software setup. When a Reset message is
transmitted from the host, the BIC-II resets:
» Delimiters to off.
» Format to normal.
» Product Mode to AiRanger Series level product.
A Reset is not required after a BIC-II power interruption.
Transmit the following message from the host to the BIC-II to activate a Reset.
Data ASCII Example
Field Character Description
SOM STX start of message
BIC-II I.D. 1 BIC-II #1 (e.g.) (range = 1 to 8)
MT 26 turn delimiters on
EOM CR end of message
No response is received by the host as a result of transmitting this message.
DELIMITERS
Delimiters are helpful when ASCII messages between the BIC-II and host are being monitored on a terminal
or data analyzer (especially during communications software development).
With Delimiters off (factory default setting), each message transmitted from the BIC-II to the host, consists of
a continuous ASCII character string. When Delimiters are on, each data field is separated by a (,) comma. (A
comma is not inserted preceding the EOM field).
Delimiters are automatically reset to "off" during a BIC-II power up. Delimiters (when activated) may be
manually turned "off" using the RESET message.
Transmit the following message from the host to the BIC-II to activate Delimiters.
Data ASCII Example
Field Character Description
SOM STX start of message
BIC-II I.D. 1 BIC-II #1 (e.g.) (range = 1 to 8)
MT 27 turn delimiters on
EOM CR end of message
No response is returned to the host as a result of this message.
When the Delimiters mode is activated, the data fields of all messages transmitted
from the host to the BIC-II must also be separated by commas.
