TC65 AT Command Set
20.9 AT^SSCNT
s
3 The effect of value 3 depends on the selected counter mode:
If AT^SCCNT, parameter = 0 (Start-Stop counter mode), then
type 3 stops the pulse counter and displays, as "^SSCNT" URC, the
number of pulses counted until this time.
If AT^SCCNT, parameter = 1 (Limit counter mode), then
type 3 immediately stops the pulse counter without indicating the "^SCCNT"
URC. This action has the same effect as the command AT^SCCNT=0,0.
(num)
Measurement result of the pulse counter in Start-Stop mode, indicated within the "^SSCNT" URC, if AT^SCCNT,
parameter =2 or 3. The value range of is 32 bits (2 32 -1).
0...4294967295 Number of pulses counted.
Note
• Measurement accuracy: In Start-Stop mode, you can achieve 100% accuracy if you take care that pulse transmission
begins after the start command (AT^SSCNT=0 or 1) has returned OK and ends before the stop command
(AT^SSCNT=3) is issued.
