When a communication error is detected, all external commands are ignored by echoing
an & for each byte received from the host. This command is used to re-establish
communication, and to identify the cause of the communication error.
In a daisy-chained environment, units located downstream from the unit detecting a
communication error, will also disable external command processing. Units upstream in a
daisy chain, are not affected.
(Note: Error detection will only occur if SSE1 is enabled. Detection of a communication
error has no effect on internal command processing, or sequence execution. A
communication error will not stop motion.)
Possible responses are:
Character

*
No errors
*0
Unit upstream (daisy chained)
*1
Overrun, data received to fast
*2
Framing error

%
*2 (Either host or controller has lost synchronization.)
(Note: For daisy chained environments, the response values are in reverse order)
%
*0*0*0*1***** (First 5 Units report no error, 6th unit detected an overrun
error, and the last 3 units turned communication off because of unit 6)
