14.6.4 Selecting the Number of Data Bits and Stop Bits, and the Parity
Applicable to Athena Plus Communications
Parameter Name
: Data Format (D7)
Name as Displayed:
dat.Fdat.F
Used By:
all
When Displayed:
if the card type is serial and the communication firmware
supports the Athena Plus protocol
Choices:
8.n.18.n.1 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
7.E.27.E.2 7 data bits, even parity, 2 stop bits
7.o.27.o.2 7 data bits, odd parity, 2 stop bits
7.n.27.n.2 7 data bits, no parity, 2 stop bits
7.E.17.E.1 7 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit
7.o.17.o.1 7 data bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit
8.n.28.n.2 8 data bits, no parity, 2 stop bits
8.E.18.E.1 8 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit
8.o.18.o.1 8 data bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit
(See Note 1 below.)
Default:
8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
Description:
Used to select the serial data format.
Note 1: Regardless of the selection made here, a Series C controller with communication
firmware that supports Athena Plus protocol always uses 1 start bit.
14.6.5 Transmission Delay When Athena Plus is Used
Parameter Name
: Transmission Delay (D8)
Name as Displayed:
tr.dLtr.dL
Used By:
all
When Displayed:
if the card type is serial and the communication firmware
supports the Athena Plus protocol
Range:
not used
Default:
n/a
Description:
not used
If you are configuring Athena Plus Protocol serial
communications, you have finished configuring the
communication parameters.
If you chose “serial with digital input” for the option card, go to
14.8.
If you are using PID control, go to Section 16 for tuning.
If you are using on/off control, go to Section 17 for restricting
access.
