Refer to the instruction manual of the host for the transmission/reception method of command.
Following shows the communication example of the driver to RSW (ID).
Command from the host will be transmitted to the desired driver based on RS485 transmission protocol.
For details of communication, refer to P.278, "Communication".

Data of *1 and *2 are determined by the 
setup of RSW (ID) of the front panel.
Check sum becomes OK'ed when the 
lower 8-bit of the sum of the received 
absolute data (15 characters) is 0.

Allow 500ms or longer interval for axis switching when you want to capture multiple
axes data.
It is recommended for you to repeat the above communication more than 2 times to
confirm the absolute data coincide, in order to avoid mis-operation due to unexpected
noise.
