Serial Interface and PortSettings
The port settings for this serial interface are:
•
Asynchronous data transfer;
•
1 start bit (logic "0");
•
7 data bits (LSB first on line);
•
Even parity;
•
1 stop bit (logic "1");
•
4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 or 115200 baud.
To set the serial baud rate choose:
•
AZ110 >> Unit >> Setup >> Serial port settings.
There is no flow control on the serial interface. Apart from correctly formatted
messages, the only significant character here is the SYNC-character (value 16
hex). The device sends this character to indicate that it is busy executing the
command and preparing the response. This prevents other devices from taking
control of the bus if the response cannot be given immediately.
The Remote Monitoring and Control Protocol is used over the
serial interface.
