1 INSTALLING THE RS-422-A INTERFACE 1.1 Interface Specifications Chapter 1 INSTALLING THE RS-422-A INTERFACE The option /C3 provides the VR200 view recorder with the EIA (Electronic Industries Association) RS-422-A communication interface to allow a host computer to do the following: • read measured values, • read parameters, and • set parameters. However, this interface does not allow the host computer to operate the power switch of the VR100VR200 nor control the parameters which can only be s

1 INSTALLING THE RS-422-A INTERFACE 1.3 Communication Wiring 1.3 Communication Wiring If the host PC is equipped with an RS-422-A interface, the VR200 can be connected directly. If the host PC is equipped with only an RS-232-C interface, the VR200 can be connected using a converter (SHARP model Z-101HE or equivalent). Shown below are two wiring examples, which are the same except for the case shielding. If there will be a connection between different panels, wiring method b should be used. P

If A < B, then signal = 1 If A > B, then signal = 0 1.4.1 Start-stop (Asynchronous) Communication The built-in RS-422-A interface communicates based on the start-stop (asynchronous) system. The start-stop system first adds the start bit to the head and then in turn adds the data bits (7 or 8 bits), parity bit, and stop bit(s) to every transmission of each character (see Figure 1.4). Define the address of the RS-422-A interface built in the VR200 recorder, baud rate, data length, parity bit, a

As shown in the example in Figure 1.6, when a CR and LF are used as the terminator, the CR is ignored. Take care when communicating with a PC, since some PCs may not send the LF character depending on the mode when the PRINT command, etc. is invoked. 1.4.3 Input Buffer The
