6.12.1. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT LEADS LEVELS
The T703 calibrator can be equipped with a version of firmware that includes support for LEADS, a data
collection and analysis system LEADS specifically designed for handling meteorological and environmental data
particularly when there is a need to integrate data and control instrumentation from several different
manufacturers. When an T703 calibrator is equipped with the optional LEADS software is used in conjunction
with data loggers located central data analysis facility is possible to collect and buffer data between the various
calibrators, analyzers and metrological equipment remotely located at an air monitoring station.

Because LEADS was originally developed for use with TNRCC using Dasibi 5008 calibrators, the LEADS
version of the T703 includes support for Dasibi “Dot” serial data commands and operational “LEVELs”.

6.12.2. DOT COMMANDS
The Dasibi “Dot” commands form a text-based (ASCII) data protocol that is transmitted between a control
computer (XENO data logger in this case) and a calibrator or ambient gas analyzer over an RS-232 connection.
The details of the protocol are beyond the scope of this document, but in its simplest form the protocol is based
on a two or three digit integer preceded by a control-A and a period (.) and then followed by a “!” and a two digit
checksum.

An T703 equipped with LEADS software can be simultaneously operated over the same COM port using
standard Teledyne API’s serial data commands and is compatible with APICOM versions 3.7.3 and later which
include an added feature that allows a user to edit, upload and download level tables.
