Communications Setup and Operation 
157 
instruments are regarded as slaves of the host computer.  The remote instruments are 
unaware that they are connected to a multidrop bus and never initiate Hessen protocol 
messages.  They only respond to commands from the host computer and only when they 
receive a command containing their own unique ID number. 
The Hessen protocol is designed to accomplish two things: to obtain the status of remote 
instruments, including the concentrations of all the gases measured; and to place remote 
instruments into zero or span calibration or measure mode.  API’s implementation 
supports both of these principal features.   
The Hessen protocol is not well defined, therefore while API’s application is completely 
compatible with the protocol itself, it may be different from implementations by other 
companies. 
Note 
The following sections describe the basics for setting up your instrument 
to operate over a Hessen Protocol network.   
For more detailed information as well as a list of host computer 
commands and examples of command and response message syntax, 
download the Manual Addendum for Hessen Protocol from the Teledyne 
API web site: http://www.teledyne-api.com/manuals/. 
6.7.2.1. HESSEN COMM PORT CONFIGURATION 
Hessen protocol requires the communication parameters of the T300/T300M Analyzer’s 
COMM ports to be set differently than the standard configuration as shown in Table 6-4.

Ensure that the communication parameters of the host computer are also 
properly set. 
 
Note 
The instrument software has a 200 ms latency before it responds to 
commands issued by the host computer. This latency should present no
