X2!

= Parameter (#L or #D) to set either the Length of

message to receive or the Delimiter value.

# = byte count (for L) or

# = a single ASCII character expressed in

decimal form (for D).

The parameter is case sensitive; you must use

capital “D” or capital “L.”

Byte count # can be from 0 to 32767,

default = 0.

The ASCII decimal # can be from 0 to 00255,

default = 00000L.

Examples:

A 3-byte length = 3L.

A delimiter of ASCII 0A = 10D.

The response from the unit includes leading zeros.

X2@

= Verbose/tagged response mode status:

NOTE: In verbose/response mode, the device

(the IPCP) responds with more information
than it usually would. For example, the IPL can
send out a notice of a change in some setting
without receiving a query via your PC. That
change could have been a result of an internal
process (a script execution), a selection made
using a touchpanel or keypad, a change
made using GV or a web page, or input from a
connected sensor or switch.
That is an example of a verbose (wordy)
relationship between the controller and a
connected device. Verbose mode creates
more network traffic than usual, which can
slow down network performance.

0 = clear, default for Telnet connections

1 = verbose mode is on (enabled)

2 = verbose mode is off, tagged responses are

sent for queries (tagged responses are enabled)

3 = verbose mode is on (enabled) and tagged

responses are enabled and sent for queries

Receive tagged

(Responses to SIS

commands are always

tagged.

Turning tagged

tags to the responses
to SIS read requests.)

on page 66 within the IP commands section
in the command/response table for a brief
explanation of what this communication mode is
and what it does.

NOTE: If tagged responses are enabled, all read

commands return the constant string and the
data or value, the same as in responses for
setting a value. For example, for

the response is Ipn

= Baud rate: 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 3600,

4800, 7200, 9600 (default), 14400, 19200,

28800, 38400, 57600, or 115200

O = odd

E = even

N = none (default)

M = mark

S = space

= Data bits: 7, 8 (default = 8)

X2*

= Serial port type:

0 = RS-232 (the only serial protocol supported

by COM1-COM6 ports, and the default for

COM7-COM8)

1 = RS-422

2 = RS-485

X3)

= Flow control (only the first letter is needed):

H = hardware

S = software

N = none

X3!

= Data pacing (time between bytes) in milliseconds

(0000 - 1000). 0000 (0 ms) is the default.

maximum length = 12 characters). Passwords

are case sensitive. No special characters

are allowed: use alphanumeric characters.

NOTE: A user password cannot be assigned if no

administrator password exists; the E14 error
code will be returned. If the administrator
password is cleared, then the user password is
also removed.

Verbose = hear other people’s/

devices’ changes.

(per Barry Ader)

Old wording:

NOTE: Verbose mode is a communication

mode in which the device responds with
more information than it usually would. For
example, the IPCP can send out unsolicited
information (such as notice of a change in
some setting). That is an example of a verbose
(wordy) relationship between the controller and
a connected device. Verbose mode creates
more network traffic than usual, which can
slow down network performance.
