OPERATION 7
7.1RS-232 CONTROL
The PE1005 has many advanced remote control
capabilities, which are accessible through standard
RS-232 communication. Actual controlling may be
achieved using a computer control system or other
device capable of sending RS-232 commands.
7.1.1 RS-232 INTERFACE
The RS-232 commands, for the PE1005, are in
a simple ASCII character format.
1. Square brackets “[ ]” are part of the
command.
2. Use uppercase letters for all commands.
After processing a command, an “OK”will be
returned as feedback if the command is good.
“OK” will not be returned if the command
generates other feedback like the [RDRL]
command.
7.2DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS
The default unit ID is zero, but may be set to a
value from 1to 99. In single unit operation,
commands may be sent without the unit
identifier. Unit ID 0 should be used for single
unit operation.
If multiple PE1005’s are connected to the same
communication port, the units may be controlled
two ways. In order to control all the units the
same, commands may be sent without the unit
identifier. Commands sent without the unit
identifier will be executed by all PE1005’s.
Example:
[VER]: Executed by all units.
[VERC1]: For Unit ID 1 Only
[VERC2]: For Unit ID 2 Only
etc…
Individual control is accomplished by first
assigning each unit a unique ID number. Then
each unit may be controlled individually by
including the unit identifier at the end of each
command string.
