CHAPTER 7 DATA COMMUNICATIONS USING DC
CODE TRANSMISSION CONTROL
The transmission control function controls (termination, restart) the transmission and reception of data between the Q
series C24 and external device by turning transmission control signals on and off, or by transmitting and receiving DC
codes (DC1, DC2, DC3, DC4), or informs the range of validity for the data to the external device.
The transmission control function can be set for each Q series C24 interface. The Q series C24 uses the transmission
control function set by the user to control data communications with external devices.
Set the transmission control function to match the specifications of the external device.
The table below lists the Q series C24 transmission control functions.
: Possible (transmission control used), : Invalid
*1 When using full-duplex communications with bidirectional protocol data communications, refer to the User's Manual
(Basic).
*2 Refer to the User's Manual (Basic) and check Q series C24 operation according to the RS (RTS) signal and CS (CTS)
signal control contents and CD terminal check designation.
When the Q series C24 is started, DTR/DSR signal control and RS/CS signal control are enabled.
