In Mode of Operation 5, a single message is sent to the host port from a selected peripheral port. Operation in Mode 5 enables the host device to receive one complete message from a selected peripheral port by sending the control character followed by ASCII capital S and the desired port number (1 to 4 for the 525H, 1 to 8 for the 528H and 529H, and 01 to 17 for the 5218H). If no message is available, the host port will transmit a Carriage Return/Line Feed.

NOTE: The host device may select and transmit data to any peripheral port while simultaneously receiving single messages from a specific peripheral port.

Mode of Operation 6 provides time-division multiplexing. The internal processor in Mode 6 continuously scans all peripheral ports checking for characters in the receive buffers. If a receive buffer contains characters, the characters are transmitted through the host port preceded by a port identification code which consists of the control character followed by the peripheral port number. Transmission continues until the buffer is empty or until a user-defined maximum data block length has been transmitted. After transmission is completed, the multiport will continue its scanning sequence.

If a control character is received by the multiport from a peripheral device, a second control character is added automatically. This technique allows you to detect the control character as a data character when it is sent through the multiport.

NOTE: The host device may select and transmit data to any peripheral port while simultaneously receiving data blocks from all peripheral ports.
