RS-232-C interface

RS-232-C interface

Application Notes

If STABILOCK is fitted with the D-AMPS module, the "RS-232/Centronics Inter-
face" hardware option cannot be installed in slot 6 (as noted on the according
rear panel), but slot 8 also can be used if still free. To allow data communication
with other units or printout on conventional printers, the D-AMPS module also has
a fully functional RS-232-C interface (socket Bu 105).

Requirements for operation

The RS-232-C interface of the D-AMPS module will only work if your Communi-
cation Test Set satisfies the following requirements:
STABILOCK 4031
STABILOCK 4032
STABILOCK 4032 MS
RS-232-C driver software
If the STATUS mask (called up with
status, a software update will be necessary.
"
Do not start the TETRA MS Test system program: the RS-232-C interface of the
D-AMPS module will not work properly if the TETRA MS Test system program is
called up at the same time.

Control commands and transmission protocol

The RS-232-C interface of the D-AMPS module offers exactly the same functions
as the RS-232-C interface of the hardware option "RS-232/Centronics Interface".
All control commands for the interface are explained in Chapter 8 under the IEEE
section "Special commands". Setting the transmission protocol (baud rate, num-
ber of data bits, parity, handshake, etc.) is explained in Chapter 4, section
"General Parameters".

Special operating parameters for the RS-232-C interface
are normally assigned with the commands WRITE[3000...]
or SLAVE3000... (see Chapter 8). Replace control se-
quence 3000 by control sequence 2010 if you want to
assign the RS-232-C interface of the D-AMPS module
special operating parameters.
Example: not WRITE[300012...] but WRITE[201012...].
