Installation and Maintenance Manual
Example: To enter die number 1 and shut height of 10.000: STXZmmF1ED1E0000EEOT. To access data through the serial
port, the ENQ ($05) character must proceed entries.
Example: STXZmmENQF1ED1EEOT would cause the Ram-Set to return STXZbbACKF001D001 : 10000EOT.
If commands are strung together in the same transmission, ENQ must precede each function that data is being requested
from:

Requested data is unavailable
After the Ram-Set has successfully received a message, it will transmit the following:
A. If no data was requested and no data errors occurred, it will transmit
STXZmmACKEOT where mm is the last address.
B. If data was requested, it will transmit STXZmm ACK (requested data) EOT.
C. If an error occurred, it will transmit STXZmmNAK00xEOT.
The “x” in the above transmission represents an error code. The codes are detailed below:
Error Codes
1: Transmission error, over-run, framing or parity error
2: Receiver buffer overfl owed (256 characters max.)
3: Data format error (check control characters)
4: Data error (check data limits)
5: Signal error (function 8 offset can’t be entered)
