SERIAL COMMANDS
10. SERIAL COMMANDS
10.1. SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
The display uses a simple text-based control protocol to take requests from control devices and to provide
responses to such devices. This section describes how to send control messages over a serial link between the
display and an automation/control system or a PC running a terminal emulation program such as Windows
HyperTerminal or Tera Term.
10.2. RS-232 CONNECTION AND PORT CONFIGURATION
Connect your control system or PC to the RS-232 input of the display.
Configure the RS-232 controller or PC serial port as follows: no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no flow control.
Set the baud rate to 115200, to match that of the display RS-232 port.
10.3. COMMAND AND RESPONSE FORMAT
Commands sent from an automation/control
system or PC to the display must have the following
format:
[STX] [IDT] [TYPE] [CMD] ([VALUE] or [REPLY]) [ETX]
[CR]
Where:
• [STX] indicates the start of the command data
(always 07).
• [IDT] is the display ID (always 01).
• [TYPE] is the command type:
• 00 = return to host (response from the
LCD panel)
• = read / action
• = write
