RS-232/422/485 Send_Commands
RS-232/422/485 Send_Commands
B9MOFF
Sets the port's communica-
tion parameters for stop and
data bits according to the
software settings on the RS-
232 port (default).
This command works in conjunction with the B9MON command.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'B9MOFF'
Example:
SEND_COMMAND RS232_1,'B9MOFF'
Sets the RS-232 port settings to match the port's configuration settings.
B9MON
Overrides and sets the com-
munication settings on the
RS-232 port to nine data bits
and one stop bit.
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.
