CHAPTER 2
EX II 3000SP Controller
Communications
This chapter discusses the fundamentals of communicating with the EX II 3000SP controller. Firmware commands are usually issued by a driver or utility program on the host system, however developers can enter these commands directly.
This chapter:
•Describes the controller default settings
•Lists the recommended firmware commands for current development
•Describes how to use each of these commands
•References additional commands developers may need
The description of each command includes the command syntax, the default value, how the command works, and the expected response from the controller.
Controller Default Settings
This section describes the default communications parameters, data format, and operating mode settings for the EX II 3000SP controller.
Communication Parameters
The default operation of the EX II 3000SP controller is N, 8, 1 (no parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bits) at 9600 baud. It also can be programmed to work with even/odd parity, 8 data bits, and 1 or 2 stop bits.
