RS-232/422/485 Send_Commands (Cont.)
B9MON
Overrides and sets the
communication settings on
the RS-232 port to nine data
bits and one stop bit.
CHARD
Sets the delay time between
transmitted characters in 100
microsecond increments.
CHARDM
Sets the delay time between
transmitted characters in 1
millisecond increments.
CTSPSH
Enables Pushes, Releases,
and status information to be
reported via channel 255.
CTSPSH OFF
Disables Pushes, Releases,
and status information to be
reported via channel 255.
GET BAUD
Gets the RS-232/422/485
port's current communication
parameters.
HSOFF
Disables hardware
handshaking (default).

This command works in conjunction with the B9MOFF command.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'B9MON'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'B9MON'
Resets the RS-232 port's communication parameters to nine data bits, one
stop bit, and locks-in the baud rate.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'CHARD<Time>'
Variable:
Time: 0-255 in 100 microsecond increments
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'CHARD10'
Sets a 1mS delay between all transmitted characters.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'CHARDM<Time>'
Variable:
Time: 0-255 in 1 millisecond increments
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'CHARDM10'
Sets a 10 mS delay between all transmitted characters.
If Clear To Send (CTS) is high, the channel is on.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'CTSPSH'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'CTSPSH'
Sets the RS232_1 port to detect changes on the CTS input.
Turns CTSPSH off.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'CTSPSH OFF'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'CTSPSH OFF'
Turns off CTSPSH on the specified device.
The port sends the data through the Master's Program port.
Syntax:
'GET BAUD'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'GET BAUD'
System response example:
Device 1, 38400,N,8,1 485 DISABLED
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'HSOFF'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'HSOFF'
Disables hardware handshaking on the RS232_1 device.
