Slave Transmit Message
This command should be issued to iPort/AFM in response to a Slave Transmit
Request (/STR). This command causes iPort/AFM to write the specified data bytes
to the requesting I
2
C Master Receiver device.
Enter Message Bytes (1 or more Printable ASCII or Hex-equivalent ~00..~FF), then
Press Enter, or ESCape to Cancel.
Note 1
: Upon receiving a Slave Transmit request from a Master Receiver device on
the I
2
C Bus, iPort/AFM outputs a Slave Transmit Request to its Host device, and
initiates an I
2
C Clock Stretch (SCL Low) until a Slave Transmit Text command is
received from the Host computer. While clock stretching, no other messages can be
transmitted on the I
2
C Bus.
Note 2
: The tilde (~) character and the Carriage Return (CR) character are used as
special marker characters within all iPort/AFM transmit text messages. These
characters may not be used within the text of a message, but must be replaced by the
following "Hex equivalent" characters:
Tilde replaced by "~7E"
Carriage Return replaced by "~0D"
iPort/AFM automatically translates "Hex equivalent" characters to their single-byte
value for transmission across the I
2
C Bus.
All entered data bytes are transmitted to the requesting Master Receiver device.
Slave Transmit stops upon receiving the first negative acknowledgment (Nack) from
the Master Receiver.
