Basic format for control data
The transmission of control data from the computer starts with
a STX signal, followed by the command, the parameters, and
lastly an ETX signal in that order. If there are no parameters,
then the parameter signal does not need to be sent.
STX C1 C2 C3 :
Colon
Start 3-character
(02h) command (3 bytes)
Notes:
•
If multiple commands are transmitted, be sure to wait for the response for the first command to come from this
unit before sending the next command.
•
Additional computer and cables shown are not supplied with this set.
•
If this unit receives a command, the response is normally sent within 200 ms. If there is no response even after
one second, a communication error might have occurred. Send the command again.
•
If an incorrect command is sent by mistake, this unit will send an "ER401" command back to the computer.
