3.4.2.6 PROFILING: 

The controller can be set to continuously output an ASCII data string to the Ethernet and RS-232 

outputs. The display will show "ON" or "OFF". Pressing any key other than the <#> key toggles 

the setting. The <#> key accepts the current setting. 

The strings look like this: 

GB,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX CRLF 

Gamma background sent every 5 seconds. Counts are a 20 second rolling average normalized to 

a one second count. 

GH,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX CRLF 

Gamma high background fault sent every 5 seconds for the duration of the fault condition. 

GL,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX CRLF 

Gamma low background fault sent every 5 seconds for the duration of the fault condition. 

GS,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX CRLF 

TCP Ethernet output: Raw gamma count information sent every 200msec while the system is 

occupied and not in an alarm condition. 

RS-232 Output: Sent every second while the system is occupied and not in an alarm condition. 

The counts are a one second count averaged from the 200msec rolling count buffer. 

GA,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX,XXXXXX CRLF 

TCP Ethernet output: Raw gamma count information sent every 200msec while the system is 

occupied and in an alarm condition. 

RS-232 Output: Sent every second while the system is occupied and in an alarm condition. The 

counts are a one second count averaged from the 200msec rolling count buffer. 

TT,000000, 000000, 000000, 000000 CRLF 

Tamper or power fail condition detected. This is sent once when the following conditions occur; 

ac power loss, charger output failure, or when the pillar doors are open. Fields are padded to 32 

bytes. 

TC, 111111,111111,111111,111111 CRLF 

Tamper or power fail condition cleared. This is sent once when the following conditions occur; 

ac power returned, or when the pillar doors are closed. Fields are padded to 32 bytes. 

GX,XXXXXX,000000,000000,000000 CRLF 

System occupancy count since midnight each day. xxxxxx = 1 – 99,9999 occupancies. This 

message is sent with an incremented count every time the pillar clears the occupancy.  This 

variable is automatically cleared on a power cycle and at midnight each day. Fields are padded 

for 32 bytes.
