5.7.2 OUTPUT TYPE
1. RS-232
OUTPUT
The RS-232 output option provides a means for communication of measured values to remote system. At present,
this communication is in one direction only [from VFM 5090(I) to remote system]. Measured values as well as
Error Messages which appear on the instrument display in the normal measurement mode are output on RS-232
line. When the RS-232 output option is present, the usual frequency output function cannot be used.
1.1 RS-232
OUTPUT
The RS-232 output is galvanically isolated
from all inputs and output circuits but
not
from current output.
Therefore, only one grounded receiver may be connected to either RS-232 output or current output. Note that
connecting RS-232 to IBM PC/compatibles will ground the RS-232 output.

·
Operating data for RS-232 output
is not programmable as in case of current or frequency output. VFM
5090(I) always uses the following operating data : 1 Start bit, 8 Data bits, No Parity, 1 Stop bit at a baud rate of
1200 bits/sec.
Connection diagram
for RS-232 output is given below. Please note that the RS-232 output uses the same
terminals as used by the Frequency output. Consequently, when the RS-232 option is present, frequency output
function can not be used.

1.2 CHARACTER
FORMAT
Measured values or Error messages which appear on instrument display in normal measuring mode are coded as
series of 8-bit characters or “bytes”. These are transmitted serially, using a conventional UART (Universal
Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) function to serialize each byte. As in RS-232 or other asynchronous
communication, a start bit and stop bit are added to each byte. This allow the receiving UART to identify the start
of each character.
A single 8-bit byte is sent as the following sequence of 1’s and 0’s.
0 DO D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 1
Start bit <---------------------8 Data Bits -----------------------> Stop bit
Baud Rate is 1200 bits/sec. All characters are encoded in ASCII character format.
