complete list of control characters.
In Protocols 6 and 7, the concentrator's address and protocol commands can
be defined or changed by concatenating them in twenty data fields separated
by commas. The order is:
Example 1:
To define a User Defined protocol with ACK-NAK protocol,
enter:
<Kf0>51<Kf6,,,,,,^F,^U,,,,,,,,^F,^U>CR
.
Kf0
puts the concentrator in Point-to-Point mode.
Kf6
puts the concentrator
in User Defined. The five commas keep the current values for Address and
From Host protocol commands (RES, REQ, STX, and ETX).
^F
and
^U
as-
sign an ACK and a NAK respectively to the From Host ACK and NAK com-
mands. The seven commas keep the current values for EOR, XON, XOFF,
RES, REQ, STX, and ETX.
^F
and
^U
assign an ACK and a NAK respec-
tively to the To Host ACK and NAK commands. The remaining four To Host
protocol commands, EOR, EOF, XON, and XOFF are omitted since they re-
main unchanged
and
are last in the command string.
Note
:
A comma is necessary after each field except the last. Therefore, when
inserting commas in place of unchanged protocol commands (or fields), remem-
ber to insert one comma for each field designated for that command string.
Example 2:
To define a User Defined Multidrop protocol with an address of
^Y with standard Multidrop commands, enter:
or:
51<Kf5,01><KF7,^Y>CR
.
The command <Kf5,01> changes the protocol to Multidrop with an address
of 01. This preloads all the Multidrop protocol commands so that only the
Note
:
EOF appears
only in the To Host
commands.
51<Kf7,^Y,^D,^E,^B,^C,^F,^U,,^Q,^S,^D,^E,^B,^C,^F,^U,,^A,^Q,^S>CR
