For your safety ® The following symbols on the DIGIFORCE 9311 and in this operation manual warn of hazards. Symbols used in the instruction manual 1.1.1 Signal words The following signal words are used in the operation manual according to the specified hazard classification.
Symbols and precautionary statements on the instrument Symbol Description Hazard warning Disconnect the power plug before opening – Follow safety instructions – Professional servicing only Warning ! To prevent Warning of electrical shock hazard electrical shock do Do not open the unit. not open device.
Introduction General safety instructions DANGER Warning concerning installation of the device and software Installation of the device and the interface must be carried out by qualified personnel only. Qualified personnel meets the following requirements: • You are familiar with the safety designs used in automation engineering, and understand how to deal with them in your capacity as configuration engineer.
EN 61000-3-3:2013 Notes on CE labeling burster equipment carrying the CE mark meets the requirements of the EU directives and the harmonized European standards (EN) cited therein. The EU declarations of conformity are available to the relevant authorities as specified in the directives.
General communication info ® The DIGIFORCE 9311 lets you control certain device functions from a remote host and read out all evaluation and measurement results. There are two communication modes to choose from: USB or Ethernet (UDP protocol). The configuration parameters for each port can be found in operation manual ®...
You must enter the following settings for the COM port parameters Baud rate 921600 Data bits Stop bits Parity None Block check Disabled* - or Enabled * Default setting after initialisation, can be changed in the menu “Basic Setup” > “Interfaces” > “USB” General procedure under Windows Open COM port Configure COM port (set baud rate, data/stop bits, parity, timeout)
When establishing a connection, the control station can either • define a slave to establish a connection, i.e. send a command to the addressed slave • poll in order to relinquish its master status to a secondary station, i.e. query for a response to a previously sent command and hence assign the transmit right to the slave.

Example This example queries the INFO command with enabled and disabled block check. Controller sends: <EOT> to make sure that any existing connections are terminated and the 9311 receive buffer is cleared. Controller sends: 00sr<ENQ> Selection: controller wishes to address the 9311 with address 0 9311 replies with: <ACK>...

3.1.5 Polling The control station sends a polling supervisory sequence. The polling supervisory sequence is used to retrieve requested data from the 9311. The prefix selects a single station. <ENQ> defines the end of the polling supervisory sequence: The polling supervisory sequence of the 9311 has the following format: <Address>po<ENQ>...

Meaning of parameter Pn Parameter Meaning Value Number of value pairs for reference curve 16 bit integer value (unsigned short) <= 160 If 2 parameters, this is the number of value pairs for the reference curve Y1 corresponding to the transferred measurement program number.

Meaning of parameter Pn Parameter Meaning Value Block number A value between 1 and 4; the max 160 coordinates are transferred in blocks of 40 values. Ethernet can transfer up to 280 values at any one time X coordinates of the reference See description below curve The max 40 coordinates (or max 280 for Ethernet) are transferred as binary code.

Meaning of parameter Pn Parameter Meaning Value Number of the measurement program A value between 0 and 15 K1...K50 X coordinates of the reference curve See description below If no parameters: Queried are the X coordinates of the reference curve corresponding to the selected measurement program.
After polling, no more than 50 coordinates (K1 to K50) are transferred. <STX>K1K2..K50<LF><ETX> Ethernet transfers 290 coordinates (K1 to K290) <STX>K1K2..K290<LF><ETX> After <ACK>, the next set of coordinates (max 50/290) are transferred. This continues until all coordinates have been transferred. In this case, the device responds after <ACK> with <EOT>, signifying the end of coordinate transfer.

<K1Byte1><K1Byte2><K1Byte3><K1Byte4><K1StatusByte><K2Byte1><K2Byte2><K2Byte3><K2Byte4><K 2StatusByte>... etc. The 32 bit floating point for each coordinate is transferred byte by byte (4 bytes). To prevent these 4 bytes from being interpreted as control codes, the highest significant bit is set (if not already set). The status byte indicates whether the highest significant bit has been set in one of these 4 bytes.
