Message Recognizer
DIFFERENCE:
This feature is available in
UMX-TPS-TX140-Plus, UMX-TPS-TX140K and
WP-UMX-TPS-TX130-US models.
The device can analyze and store the received serial data.
For more information see the
Check the
Enable message recognizer on this port
option to
switch the recognizer on.
Delimiter sequence
text box is for setting the delimiter
string in hex format. When this string is detected in
the incoming serial data, the device saves the RS-232
message data from the first bit till the delimiter (or the
data between the two delimiters).
INFO:
0D0A is the factory default value, this is the
hexadecimal code of Carriage Return and Line Feed.
LW3 protocol commands end with this formula, so
the default value support the recognition of the LW3
commands and the stored changes automatically.
If the
Timeout
is enabled and set, the received data is
saved when the timeout is elapsed after the last received
message.
In
Received messages
box shows the last received
and stored message in Text (RECOGNIZER.Rx), Hex
(RECOGNIZER.RxHex), and Hash (RECOGNIZER.Hash)
format. The Hex and Hash contains the delimiter.
Press the
Clear
button to erase this storage.
Clicking on
Reload
restores the
of the recognizer.
ATTENTION!
The Message recognizer settings are mirrored on the Local and TPS out serial port.
INFO:
Message recognizer operates independently of the RS-232 mode.
