Installation 1 Installation Make the settings specified in the relevant User Manual Technical Specifications and Connections to ensure correct installation of the RM85x family of hand-held terminals. 2 Serial communication The minimum size for a transmitted data packet size is 10 bits. These comprise 1 start bit 8 data bits 1 stop bit Start Data Stop 0 lsb Msb 1 Packet format is as follows: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit 2.1 VT100 protocol RM85x hand-held terminals support a sub-set of commands from the standard VT100 protocol as well as customised commands for I/O control. VT100 protocol includes the necessary XON/XOFF communication control. The terminal has a FIFO buffer in reception and transmission comprising 64 characters. If the content of the reception buffer reaches more than 48 characters, the terminal sends an XOFF character (0x13) to the master to request it to stop transmitting as quickly as possible. Once an XOFF character has been sent and the reception buffer has dropped below 16 characters again, the terminal sends an XON character (0x11) to tell the master that it can start transmitting again. In the same way the master can also send the terminal an XOFF character when so required by its own control logic. In this case, the terminal stops transmitting as quickly as possible and waits to receive an XON character before restarting. For further details on VT100 protocol, visit the following site: http://vt100.net 2.2 CNI proprietary protocol 2.2.1 Control characters RM85x hand-held terminals send the remote controller commands and data requests in packets containing a number of characters. Each packet starts with the STX control character and ends with the ETX control character. Packets do not normally contain other STX or ETX characters. If STX, ETX, ESC, XON or XOFF characters have to be transmitted, these must first be split into two characters according to the following table. 05-10-2007 CNI Engineering S.r.l. 1

RM85x Hand-held Terminals User Manual Character to transmit Characters transmitted STX (0x02) ESC (0x1B) 0xFF XOR STX (0xFD) ETX (0x03) ESC (0x1B) 0xFF XOR ETX (0xFC) ESC (0x1B) ESC (0x1B) 0xFF XOR ESC (0xE4) XON (0x11) ESC (0x1B) 0xFF XOR XON (0xEE) XOFF (0x13) ESC (0x1B) 0xFF XOR XOFF (0xEC) 2.2.2 Packet checksum (8 bit CRC) Each packet also contains a checksum character (CRC), calculated as follows. STX Datum1 DatumN CRC ETX CRC = 0xFF XOR Datum1 XOR XOR DatumN N.B.: CRC is calculated on the basis of the bytes in the packet before control characters are added. This is because control characters must also mask the CRC. 2.2.3 Packet length The maximum number of data characters that can be transmitted is 68. This number does not include the control characters in the packet. 2.2.4 Node address The second byte of each command identifies the target terminal s node address, as configured on the terminal s DIP-switch. If RM85x hand-held terminals communicate over an RS232 connection, this address must be set to0x00 to ensure correct functioning. All the switches on the configuration DIP must be OFF for this setting. 3 VT100 protocol commands 6 groups of VT100 protocol commands are available: Cursor control commands Editor commands Character delete commands Information request commands Terminal status commands I/O commands 3.1 Cursor control commands This group of command lets you control the position and the characteristics of the cursor. Whenever the terminal is switched on or reset, the cursor is set off and is positioned at the first column of the first row of the display. 2 CNI Engineering S.r.l. 05-10-2007

RM85x Hand-held Terminals User Manual B Error messages Error messages can be captured using the Read message (CmdGetAlarm) command (see section 4.1.6). The following table describes the meanings of the various error messages. Code Name Meaning Action required 0x0000 NOALARM The terminal is functioning correctly. No error messages are present. None 0x0008 0x000A 0x000B 0x000C 0x000D ALCOMERROR ALNOPARAMINFL ALNOPRGINFLASH ALERASINGFL ALPRGMINGFL Error in communication between the terminal and the master (1). The parameters saved in flash memory are incorrect. The application saved in flash memory is incorrect. A flash memory delete error occurred while the application was being downloaded. A flash memory write error occurred while the application was being downloaded. Check the cabling. If the TIMEOUTFB parameter (0x010D) is set to a value other than 0, increase this value. Make sure that the master was not switched off while the terminal was on. Re-send the parameters to the terminal. If you wish, save them in flash memory (to avoid the same message appearing the next time you switch the terminal on). Download the application. Download the application again. Download the application again. 0x0021 ALWRONGIRQ Terminal software error. Contact the supplier. 0x4001 ALPARNONCORR A non-existent parameter was sent or read. 0x4003 0x4007 ALWRONGCMD ALFLNOTERASED A non-existent command or one with an incorrect length was sent. A request was made to write to an area of flash memory that has not been deleted. Check the software in the master. Check the software in the master. Contact the supplier. (1) Serial communications error with CNI proprietary protocol. May be caused by: Timeout: the master has not sent any more data A packet of characters received was too long (or the ETX character was missing) Two STX characters were received without an intervening ETX character CRC error An ESC character was received followed by the wrong character (ETX, STX or ESC). 42 CNI Engineering S.r.l. 05-10-2007
