Fault String
Short_String 1-16 byte string transmitted when gateway’s Polled I/O
connection times out. Short_String length = 0 for no Fault String.

Receive Data –
Data from the last valid message packet.
Receive Data
includes the
Status
and
Receive
Sequence Number
bytes if enabled, and the
RX Message
bytes. The
RX Message
format
is either Short_String or Byte Array, defined by
Data Format
attribute. If no message data is
available, the
RX Message
will be a null packet or Short_String with length = 0.
Receive Data
is
returned in the DeviceNet Poll Response Message.
Transmit Data
– Data to transmit out the serial channel by the gateway.
Transmit Data
includes
the
Status Clear
and
Transmit
Sequence Number
bytes if enabled, and the
TX Message
bytes.
Format is either Short_String or Byte Array, defined by
Data Format
attribute.
Transmit Data
is
typically received in the DeviceNet Poll Command Message. Reading
Transmit Data
returns the
last byte in the Transmit Buffer.
Status
– Contains bit-mapped serial channel status and error bits for transmit and receive
operations. Clearing the bits indicated will clear the error condition.
Baud Rate
–
Sets the serial channel’s data or baud rate. Enter number from 1-6 to select
corresponding baud rate value. For DN120, the RS232 Baud Rate switch must be set to PRG
before this attribute can be used to set the baud rate.
