Omega HH506RA datalogger thermometer serial com commands?

Thank you very much for your help!
My code is currently working even if there's still some error (I used the simple error handler to keep track of errors while the program still run until the end)

Best regards,

Olivier

FakStory,

 

How were you able to change from the special characters to meaningful temperature numbers?

I am using an Extech 421509 which uses the same command structure as the HH506ra, but I can only read the special characters.

 

Thanks,

 

Dan

Hi Dan10,

 

                It's been 2 year ago and I don't fully remember... What do you mean by special characters? Is this what you got directly by the serial port? Make sure you're reading the correct format... HEX or ASCII...

Hi FakStory,

 

It turned out to be a problem of how many bytes I read. There are still acouple of glitches but I wrote some code that just repeats the measurement if the glitches happen.

With that it works fine now. 

Thanks!
