ONIOFF Timing of the CD and RS Signals of the AlSJ71C24
When doing half-duplex communications, the data transmission timing is
shown by using the CD and US signals of the AlSJ71C24.
In half-duplex communications, an external device controls the CD signal of
the A1 SJ71 C24.
The AlSJ71C24 system controls the US signal of the AlSJ71C24.
The table below shows the half-duplex communications connections dis-
cussed in this section.
