Prototype void RS485Slave_Receive(char *data);
Description Receives message addressed to it. Messages are multi-byte, so this function must be
called for each byte received (see the example at the end of the chapter). Upon receiving
a message, buffer is filled with the following values:
data[0..2]
is the message,
data[3]
is number of message bytes received, 1–3,
data[4]
is set to 255 when message is received,
data[5]
is set to 255 if error has occurred,
data[6]
is the address of the Slave which sent the message.
Function automatically adjusts
data[4]
and
data[5]
upon every received message.
These flags need to be cleared from the program.
Requires MCU must be initialized as Slave in RS-485 communication in order to be assigned an
address. See
RS485Slave_Init
.
Example
unsigned short msg[8];
...
RS485Slave_Read(msg);
RS485Slave_Receive
Prototype void RS485Slave_Send(char *data, char datalen);
Description Sends
data
from buffer to Master via RS-485;
datalen
is a number of bytes in mes-
sage (1 <= datalen <= 3).
Requires MCU must be initialized as Slave in RS-485 communication in order to be assigned an
address. See
RS485Slave_Init
.
It is programmer’s responsibility to ensure (by protocol) that only one device sends data
via 485 bus at a time.
Example unsigned short msg[8];
...
RS485Slave_Send(msg, 2);
