3. If an out-of-range value is set, the following communications conditions will
result. In that case, reset the value so that it is within the permissible range.
Communications mode:
Host Link
Communications format:
Standard settings
(1 start bit, 7-bit data; 2 stop bits, even parity,
9,600 bps)
Transmission delay:
No
Node number:
00
Example Program
This example shows a BASIC program that reads the status of the CPM1’s in-
puts in IR 000. For more details, refer to

Host Link Commands.
An FCS (frame check sequence) check isn’t performed on the received re-
sponse data in this program. Be sure that the host computer’s RS-232C port is
configured correctly before executing the program.
