Command 1

Command 1, along with command 2, is a number used to distinguish each command.

In the case of ACK, when the lower order 4 bits is FH (as in 3FH and 7FH), this indicates that the commands and data of the supported equipment have been received. When the lower order 4 bits is BH (as in 3BH and 7BH), this indicates that unsupported commands and data have been received.

Unit ID 1 and Unit ID 2

Unit ID 1 and unit ID 2 are numbers used to identify the equipment that is to be connected.

60H is used for the plasma monitor and 80H is used for external control equipment such as a personal computer.

1)Unit ID 1: Indicates the equipment sending the signal

2)Unit ID 2: Indicates the equipment receiving the signal

2)Connector on the external equipment side: Serial port (RS-232C) connector.

See the specifications of the equipment that is to be connected for the type of connector and the pin assignment.

3)Wiring

Use a crossed (reverse) cable.

Wire the cable so that each pair of data lines cross between the two devices. These data line pairs are RXD (Receive data) and TXD (Transmit data), DTR (DTE side ready) and DSR (DCE side ready), and RTS (Ready to send) and CTS (Clear to send).

Command 2

Command 2, along with command 1, is a number used to distinguish each command.

Check Sum (CKS), Error Processing, and ACK

1)The check sum described below and RS-232C odd parity are used together for a check of the received data. The check sum is the lower order 8 bits of one frame of sent or received data comprising the sum total of Command 1, Unit ID 1 and 2, Command 2, Data Length, and Data.

2) Error Processing

When the communication interval is vacant for more than 4 ms, a received Command 1 will be recognized. If, at this time, meaningful data cannot be recognized, that data will not be recognized (as valid data).

An ACK will not be returned unless the receive data error, the check sum error, and the receive data are all taken in.
