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.
CHARD
Sets the delay time between
transmitted characters in 100
microsecond increments.
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.
CHARDM
Sets the delay time between
transmitted characters in 1
millisecond increments.
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.
CTSPSH
Enables Pushes, Releases,
and status information to be
reported via channel 255.
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.
CTSPSH OFF
Disables Pushes, Releases,
and status information to be
reported via channel 255.
Turns CTSPSH off.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'CTSPSH OFF'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'CTSPSH OFF'
Turns off CTSPSH on the specified device.
GET BAUD
Gets the RS-232/422/485
port’s current communication
parameters.
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
HSOFF
Disables hardware
handshaking (default).
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'HSOFF'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'HSOFF'
Disables hardware handshaking on the RS232_1 device.
