Undefined. If you execute an undefined call, you receive the error
message, “

ERROR–UNSUPPORTED CALL.

Use CALL 108 to enable DF1 driver communications via port PRT2.
You can only enable this device if the operating mode jumper JW4
(page 1 -6) is in the correct position.

See CALL 113 (page13 -47 ) to disable the DF1 driver.

Input and Output Arguments

This routine has six input arguments and no output arguments.

Argument

Description

Page

input 1

specifies the operational code selection that indicates
the mode of operation for the DF1 driver

13 -38

input 2

specifies the Poll Time-out period when in half-duplex
mode or the ACKnowledge Time-out period when in
full-duplex mode

13 -42

input 3

number of message retries when in half-duplex mode
or the number of ENQuiry Retries to perform when in
full-duplex mode

13 -43

input 4

RTS On Delay time period when in half-duplex mode or
the number of NAK Received Retries to perform when
in full-duplex mode

13 -43

input 5

RTS Off Delay time period

13 -43

input 6

BASIC module address that the DF1 driver responds to
when receiving enquires from a remote DF1 device

13 -43

Input Argument One
The first input argument specifies the operational code selection that
indicates the mode of operation for the DF1 driver.

The operational code specifies the following DF1 parameters:

full-duplex or half-duplex slave operation

duplicate packet detection (DPD) selection

BCC or CRC error checking selection

enable embedded responses (ER) or auto-detect embedded responses

(ADER) (Ex. perform embedded responses only if embedded responses
received form other station. Only applies to full-duplex operation).

modem handshaking selection
