Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 1.6.5 Connection by general-purpose communication The GOT can be connected to a general controller such as a micro computer board. (The con- nected controller is hereafter referred to as "host (unit)".) • Outline In general-purpose communication, the host unit is connected to the GOT via the RS-422/ RS-232C and functions as the parent station in communication.
Page 35 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Communication setting The setting related to communication can be performed using the screen creation software or the GOT main body. (As to the screen creation software, refer to the operation manual of the software.) To use general-purpose communication, select "SET-UP MODE", "PLC TYPE"...
Page 36 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Communication procedure In communication between the GOT and the host unit, the host unit sends a command, and the GOT sends back a response. While the GOT is sending the response to the host unit, the GOT cannot receive new commands.
Page 37 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Transmission statement configuration Transmission statements sent and received between the GOT and the host unit are classi- fied into the following three formats. Type 1 and Type 2 can replace each other. When the sum is not attached to a command, use Type 1.
Page 38 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Command Use the following commands for communication with the GOT. - Read . . . Read the data stored in the GOT. Command Read Adress Size Type 2 may be used. "0" at the head indicates a read command. Read address :Using ASCII codes, specify the head address (hexadecimal) of the data stored in the GOT.
Page 39 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 - Write . . . Overwrite the data stored in the GOT. Command Write Adress Size Data 1 Data 2 Type 2 may be used. "1" at the head indicates a write command. Write address :Using ASCII codes, specify the head address (hexadecimal) of the data stored in the GOT.
Page 40 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Memory map The data stored in the GOT is classified into two types, word data (D) and bit data (M). An address is assigned to each data, and each data is laid out as follows. When specifying data using the screen creation software, use the device (D or M) No.
Page 41 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 Each data indicates the following contents. Device Description Interrupt output When the bit data status is changed, the GOT sends an interrupt code to the host M8000 to M8049 unit. When the data length is 7 bits, interrupt codes M8024 to M8049 are not output. Even if the host unit overwrites this data, the GOT does not output interrupt codes.
Page 42 Graphic Operation Terminal F940GOT Introduction 1 • Program example This program writes "31,000" to D10, and "15,600" to D11. In hexadecimal, "31,000" is expressed as "7918H" and "15,600" as "3CF0H". Sample program : ' Counter waiting for receive (to be adjusted in accor- TO=3000 dance with speed of computer) 530 ERFLG=0...
