of 1 is assumed.
d
is the data that is to be echoed. The command is valid at
any time.
For example:
>E2,HELLO [CR]
This example will cause the CVIM module to return the string:
[CR] [LF]
HELLO [CR] [LF]
HELLO [CR] [LF]
If you do not have the proper command structure the CVIM module will
return:
?[CR] [LF]
Use this command to enable or disable outputs on the Local I/O Board
(Catalog No. 1771–JMB). Use the following commands:
> EO [CR]
This command enables the outputs.
> DO [CR]
This command disables the outputs.
After executing the command, the CVIM module will return: [CR] [LF]. No
data is returned. If you do not have the proper command structure, the CVIM
module will return: ?[CR][LF].
Use the force command to turn the local I/O outputs either on or off. This
function can only be executed once per command. Use one of the following
commands:
> F,On,1 [CR]
Forces output(s) on.
> F,On,0 [CR]
Forces output(s) off.
Where n is the output being forced on or off, outputs 1 through 14.
n = 1 to 14
(individual outputs, can be non-consecutive)
X – Y
(range of outputs X through Y)
*
(all of the outputs)
For example:
> F,O*,1 [CR]
This example will force all outputs on.
