Serial data port configuration and use
These commands apply to any port that uses RS-232 communication: both 1-way (output) and 2-way (bidir
ectional) RS-232 communication.
Send data string

}
X@
X!
= specific port number
2 = Display RS
-232/IR port
3 = MLS port X@
= command data section (< 200 bytes).
X1&
= time in tens of ms for the MLC to wait
until r
eceipt of the first r
esponse character
befor
e terminating the curr
ent r
eceive
operation (default = 10 = 100 ms, max. = 32767).
The
response
includes
leading
zer
os.
X2)
= time in tens of milliseconds (ms) for
the MLC to wait between characters being received via a serial port befor
e terminating
the curr
ent r
eceive operation (default = 2 =
20
ms, max. = 32767). The r
esponse includes
leading zer
os.
X2!
= #L
or #D. The letter parameter is case
sensitive (r
equir
es a capital “D” or capital
“L”). The r
esponse includes leading zer
os.
L = length of the message to be r
eceived.
D = delimiter value. # = byte count (for L) or a single
ASCII
character expr
essed in decimal form (for D).
Byte count # can be fr
om 0 to 32767, default
= 0. The
ASCII decimal delimiter # value
can be fr
om 0 to 00255, default = the byte
count. Examples: A
3
‑byte length = 3L. A
delimiter of
ASCII 0A
= 10D.

default values ar

X1&

a) equal zer

For W
eb encoding
for
X@
, convert nonalphanumeric characters to hex numbers. A
space (hex = 20) is encoded as %20.
A
plus sign (hex
=
2B) is encoded as %2B.
