Technical support / Host link command structure
« on: May 21, 2006, 08:31:52 AM »
Hello, I have been using Triangle Research products for some time.
On my next project I will be using a T100MD2424 to communicate with a remote E10NPN over a RS485 network. I have been trying to figure out how the host link commands work. I have loaded a blank program into the E10, and have been trying to send commands from my laptop using the serial port setup utility. In an effort to understand how the command responce works before I put it into the actual T100MD2424 program.
I have been trying to read and write the outputs and inputs but have not figured out how the responce corresponds to the actual input. When I send the command WO00* . I do not understand the responce that I get. The output sometimes turns on, but sometimes it does not. How does it correspond to the actual output.
Since I only need to use one output from the remote E10 is there an easy command set to use to reliably control this output?
