There is no specific VI for this device, so the OPI needs to start from "scratch", a suggested layout would be:
The system will need a macro for the number of probes
This is currently considered one device, with 2 COM ports, and 3 probes at each port
Each probe needs a name, Address, and axis definition (axis is +/- X|Y|Z)
On startup for each probe send A%d SE0GDR3GCNNUFG where %d is the address, this initialises the probes in the expected way, including set the range to the highest index
Send A%d F at the rate agreed in the acceptance criteria, to each probe using %d for the probe address, and multiply the returned value by 1 or -1 based on the direction of the probe (e.g. X is +1, -X is -1)
If F returns OVER RANGE, increase the range if possible, this may be most clearly dealt with in SNL or a script record as there are other range changes to consider too.
If the absolute value of the field reading is less than the corresponding move down point (-1, 2500, 5000, 1000, these are all roughly 83% of the previous range level, ranges are 3000, 6000, 12000, 30000):
Change the range value down a level
Otherwise:
If the absolute value is more than the corresponding move down point (2900, 5800, 11600, 999999, which are all roughly 97% of the current range value):
Change the range up a level
Otherwise
Do nothing
The range is altered using A%d R%d replacing the %ds with the address of the probe and the range index to use.
Send A%d T to get the temperatures for each probe where %d is the probe address

As a user of HIFI I want to be able to read the values from the Group 3 Hall Probe to use with regards to the zerofield on HIFI.
