    PRECAUTIONS This section provides general precautions for using the C200H Temperature Sensor Unit and related devices. The information contained in this section is important for the safe and reliable application of the C200H Temperature Sensor Unit. You must read this section and understand the information contained before attempting to set up or oper- ate the C200H Temperature Sensor Unit.

  • Page 10: Intended Audience

    It is extremely important that a PC and all PC Units be used for the specified purpose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that can directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON representative before applying a PC system to the above-mentioned applications.

    SECTION 1 Hardware The ASCII Unit is an intelligent PC peripheral device designed to make a PC-based control system more flexible and powerful. The ASCII Unit, programmed in BASIC, can be used for statistical quality control, system monitoring, data processing, report generation, and other tasks. The ASCII Unit is a companion processor that relieves the PC of some of its housekeeping, monitoring, and decision making functions.

    SECTION 2 Data Section This section explains the data section of the PC, a special memory area used to communicate with the ASCII Unit. This section also defines several important terms which are used throughout this manual. The material in this section will be- come more clear later on when you begin working with an actual ASCII Unit program.

  • Page 21: Bits And Bytes

    Section 2-1 Bits and Bytes Bits and Bytes The PC’s memory is divided up into many sections, each of which has its own name and purpose. The ASCII Unit can access any of these memory areas using the BASIC READ(@) and WRITE(@) statements (this is ex- plained in more detail in Section 4 BASIC Language).

  • Page 22: Data Section

    Section 2-2 Data Section Data Section Each ASCII Unit is assigned four memory words called the Data Section for communication with the PC. The words are assigned from addresses 100 to 199 of the PC IR memory area. How this information is used will be under- stood better after you read the BASIC Language and Programming Exam- ples sections of this manual.

  • Page 25: Programming And Communication

    SECTION 3 Programming and Communication Section 3-1 explains how the ASCII Unit and the PC exchange information. Section 3-2 explains how to transfer pro- grams from one device to another. The ASCII Unit BASIC program is written on a personal computer. To run the pro- gram, it must be transferred to the RAM of the ASCII Unit.

  • Page 26: Programs

    Section 3-1 Programs Programs To use the ASCII Unit in conjunction with the PC, an ASCII Unit program writ- ten in BASIC is needed. A data exchange routine must also be incorporated into the PC program except when the READ(@...) and WRITE(@...) state- ments are used with specific memory area designators.

Assembly programs are faster and use memory more efficiently than higher level programs such as BASIC. In certain situations it is advantageous to use assembly routines instead of BASIC to perform specialized functions.

When the ASCII Unit ex- ecutes the above PC READ “@...” statement, five words are read by the BA- SIC program starting from DM word 0000, converted into BCD and assigned to the variables A through E.
  • Page 91 Section 6-1 Example Programs Remarks: When the ASCII Unit executes the PC WRITE “@...” statement, the variables P, Q, and R are converted into BCD and stored in DM words 0010, 0011, and 0012.

  • Page 92 Section 6-1 Example Programs PC words are used to store the data, which consists of four characters (two characters per word). When the execution statement flag is set, the data is stored in DM words 0020 and 0021. The ASCII Unit OPENs port 2 as the keyboard, and stores the entered char- acters as a character string, A$.
