Frame 1
Response of host computer
Communications testing between the ID Controller and the host computer can
be performed by using the test command, so that connections of the cables and
communications operation can be checked before the test run of the overall sys-
tem.
1. Create a simple communications program on the host computer and trans-
mit the test command (TS).
2. If the communication system is normal, the ID Controller returns the test
data it has received as is.
