CompoWay/F Master Protocol
Communications Specifications
Transmission Procedure
The PLC or host computer serving as the master sends a command and the component serving as the slave
returns a response for the command message contained in the command. One response message is returned
for each command message. The movement of command and response messages is shown below.
Master (PLC or host computer)
Slave (component)
Command and Response Formats

indicate ASCII characters.
