Reading data in MIO-format

Some older Sommer sensors like the USH-8 send data in the MIO-format (multi-in-out) which is structured as in the following example:

I04124874-011350148960519;

 

Format

Description

Identifier

I

I identifies an output string

Device number

  04

 

System key

    12

 

Measurement value 1

      4874

Level in mm (4 digits)

      …

Measurement values 2…4 (4 digits each)

Checksum

         0519

 

End character

                ;

 

To read data strings in MIO-format Measurement table has to be configured as follows:

In this example the first measurement value (level) is read from the sensor with device number 04.

ATTENTION  The system keys of the sensor and the MRL-6.1 must be the same! In the example above the system key is 12. Set System key of the MRL-6.1 to 12 as well, or adapt the key of the sensor.
