10.2.2 Communication Format <BFM#0>
The communication format is determined on the rising edge of the send/receive enable
command (BFM #1 b0).
Accordingly, the communication format setting should be preliminary transferred using the TO
instruction before BFM #1 b0 is turned ON. Also, the send header and terminator are determined
by the rising edge of the send command (BFM #1 b1). The receive header and the receive
terminator are determined on the rising edge of BFM #1 b0 or on the rising edge of the receive
completion reset command (BFM #1 b2). Accordingly, when only the header and the terminator
are exclusively changed it is not necessary to turn BFM #1 b0 OFF. The change becomes valid
form the next send/receive operation.
