Page 44
Graphic Operation Terminal F930GOT 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 45
Graphic Operation Terminal F930GOT Introduction 1 • Command Use the following commands for communication with the GOT. - Read : Read the data stored in the GOT. Command Read address 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 46
Graphic Operation Terminal F930GOT Introduction 1 - Write : Overwrite the data stored in the GOT. Command Write address 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 47
Graphic Operation Terminal F930GOT 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).
Page 48
