c) IRC status check operation
Either a PC as master or ECR as master, perform SP-8800 IRC STATUS CHECK on ECR as follows:
< SP >--(8800)--[X/ENTER]--[ /ENTER] or select IRC PROGRAM and 8800 IRC STATUS CHECK from the list
During SP-8800 IRC STATUS CHECK, the following message is displayed:
Master Slave
BUSY --- IRC COMM ---
ACCEPT-[ENT / .]
CANCEL - [ CL]
P ECR#-01 P
The master ECR will check ECR sequential number up to 8, even when there are fewer ECRs than 8
ECRs on the IRC line.
After IRC status check is completed, all ECR's connected can communicate via IRC line, and the IRC
system configuration table is printed as follows:
S-8800
01
#101
OK
02
#102
OK
03
#103
OK
#101-000006
19:07P
ECR sequential #, machine #, IRC status
If there is a communication error, 'NG' will be printed instead of 'OK'. Retry SP-8800 operation.
