COMMUNICATION OUTPUT
4.5.1
SERIAL
The serial communication output defines the format of the message that is
transmitted upon identification.
This serial output message format is used on the USB and RS485 interface. See for
interface connection details chapter 3.2.
Message format:
<prefix><id-source><id-type><id-number><suffix><cr><lf>
If the message format has been changed, the MaceConfigTool may fail to recognize
the message and the identification may not be shown in the ID-list anymore. In this
case check the Console to check the communication output.
