Parameters of Commands and Responses
66 Expansion line error
The communication could not be 
established due to a problem with an 
expansion line.
Check if the separate display unit is 
connected. Correctly connect it by 
referring to "Connecting the Unit to 
Sensor Amplifiers" (page 3). Check that 
the connected sensor amplifier is 
compatible with the DL-RS1A (refer to 
page 4).
67 Write control error DL-RS1A is not in a writable state.
Change the read/write setting switch to 
the R/W position to enable writing to DL-
RS1A. For information on the read/write 
setting switch, refer to 
"Part Names and 
Functions" (page 2).
Error No.

Communication Response Time
This section describes the communication response time for each communication command and 
various time frames.
Communication Response Time and Time Chart
This section describes the concept of communication response time and the time chart for the 
communication commands.
When sending communication commands consecutively from the external device, wait to send 
the next command after reception of the response for the previous command from DL-RS1A 
completes.
■ SR command
The SR command directly reads data from a sensor amplifier during T4 (DL-RS1A command 
processing time).
Time chart
■ M0 command and MS command
The M0 and MS commands read the buffered data that DL-RS1A periodically retrieves from the 
sensor amplifiers.
Therefore, the latest data detected by the sensors can only be read after T2 (DL-RS1A data 
processing time) where DL-RS1A retrieves data from the sensor amplifiers.
