Window Protocol

Description
Communication Format
•
8 data bit
•
no parity
•
1 stop bit
• baud rate: 600/1200/2400/4800/9600 programmable
Communication Protocol
The communication protocol is a MASTER/SLAVE type
where:
•
Host = MASTER
•
Controller = SLAVE
The communication is performed in the following way:
1. the host (MASTER) send a MESSAGE + CRC to the
controller (SLAVE);
2. the controller answer with an ANSWER + CRC to the
host.
The MESSAGE is a string with the following format:
<STX>+<ADDR>+<WIN>+<COM>+<DATA>+<ETX>+<CRC>
where:
When a data is indicated between two quotes ('...') it
means that the indicated data is the corresponding
ASCII character.
− <STX> (Start of transmission) = 0x02
− <ADDR> (Unit address) = 0x80 (for RS 232)
<ADDR> (Unit address) = 0x80 + device number (0
to 31) (for RS 485)
− <WIN> (Window) = a string of 3 numeric character
indicating the window number (from '000' to '999');
for the meaning of each window see the relevant
paragraph.
− <COM> (Command) = 0x30 to read the window,
0x31 to write into the window
−
<DATA> = an alphanumeric ASCII string with the
data to be written into the window. In case of a
reading command this field is not present. The field
length is variable according to the data type as per
the following table:
DATA TYPE
Logic (L)
Numeric (N)
Alphanumeric
(A)
− <ETX> (End of transmission) = 0x03
− <CRC> = XOR of all characters subsequent to
<STX> and including the <ETX> terminator. The
value is hexadecimal coded and indicated by two
ASCII character.
