(4) Response format (NAK response)
Format name Header Station No. Command Command type Error code
(Hex 2 Byte) Tail Frame check
Ex. of frame NAK H20 R(r) SS H1132 ETX BCC
ASCII value H15 H3230 H52(72) H5353 H31313332 H03
Item Explanation
BCC When command is lowercase(r), only one lower byte of the value resulted by adding 1
Byte each to ASCII values from NAK to ETX is converted into ASCII and added to BCC.
Error code Hex and 2 bytes(ASCII code, 4 bytes) indicate error type. For the details, see 8.1.8 Error
codes.
(5) Example
This example supposes when 1 WORD from M20 and 1 WORD from P001 address of station No.1 are read and BCC value
is checked. Also it is supposed that H1234 is entered in M20, and data of H5678 is entered in P001.
