3)Baud Rate

9 600 bps (standard)

(switch-able to 1 200, 2 400, 4 800, 19 200, 38 400 bps)

Note

The baud rate of this display should be set to match the baud rate of the PC.

Also, when the RS-232C cable is extended over a long distance, use a slower baud rate.

6)Protocol

From the PC to the display

(1) Sending one command at a time:

 

STX (02 hex)

ID (2 Byte)

COMMAND (3 Byte or 6 Byte)

ETX (03 hex)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(2) Sending numerical direct commands:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STX (02 hex)

ID (2 Byte)

COMMAND (3 Byte)

ARGUMENT (3 Byte)

ETX (03 hex)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ID, COMMAND, ARGUMENT are transmitted as ASCII characters.

From the display to a PC

(1) Echo back (Normal response)

Command received and returned but the ID is not returned.

STX (02 hex)

COMMAND (3 Byte or 6 Byte) ETX (03 hex)

Received command is a numerical direct effect command and numerical data is returned:

STX (02 hex) COMMAND (3 Byte) ARGUMENT (3 Byte) ETX (03 hex)

(2) Error (Abnormal response)

Received command is a non-corresponding command, ‘ERR’ is returned:

STX (02 hex)

ERR (3 Byte)

ETX (03 hex)

Received command cannot be processed (when PON is received when the power is already ON, etc.), ‘XXX’ is returned:

STX (02 hex)

190

XXX (3 Byte)

ETX (03 hex)
