2.4 Handshake Format Selection In order to ensure proper data transfers between the recorder and the host computer via the RS-232C interface, a mutual procedure is required for processing the electrical signals. Such a procedure is referred to as a ‘handshake’. Several handshake formats are available, with selection depending on the host computer being used. The same handshake format must be designated for both the recorder and the host computer.
2.4 Handshake Format Selection XON-DTR • Transmission data control • Reception data control • Reception data control CTS-DTR • Transmission data control • Reception data control IM DR231-11E : A hardware handshake status is established between the recorder and the host computer. The recorder will stop a data transmission if a ‘CTS=False’ status is established, and will resume the transmission when a ‘CTS=True’ status is established.
2.5 Communication Data Format The RS-232-C interface uses a START-STOP communication format. With this format, a START bit is placed at the beginning of each character transmitted, followed by the data bits, parity bit, and stop bit, in that order. (See the figure below.) ‘Line idle’ condition Return to ‘line idle’ condition (dotted line), or proceed to next data START bit.

3.3 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Connection The following explains how the RS-422-A/RS-485 module is connected to the computer.
3.3 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Connection Connecting to the Host Computer Can be connected to a host computer with RS-232-C, RS-422-A, RS-485 ports. • In the case of RS-232-C, a converter is used as shown in the diagram below. • For information on recommended converters, refer to “Converters” in the latter. • Dip switch needs to be changed depending on whether it is a two-wire system or four-wire system. Refer to “3.5 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Parameter Setting Procedure.
3.3 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Connection In the case of two-wire system Connect send and receive terminals with the same signal polarity on the terminal arrangement of the RS-422-A/RS-485 module. Only two wires are used in connecting to other units.
3.3 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Connection Converter Recommended converter : Sharp Z-101HE Caution Some converters other than the recommended, do not have the FG and SG terminals insulated. In such cases, do not connect as in the diagram on the previous page (do not connect anything to the FG and SG terminals of the converter). Especially when it is long distance, the potential difference may damage the devices or the communication may become unreliable.
3.3 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Connection Minimum Response Time Because send and receive are done on the same line in the two-wire system, minimum response time needs to be set. The minimum response time is the amount of time the RS-422-A/RS-485 module waits in order for the host computer to be able to receive the data after it sends data. The time can be set in the range from 0 to 100 ms.
3.4 Communication Data Format Same as the RS-232-C interface. For a description, refer to “2.5 Communication Data Format.
3.5 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Parameter Setting Procedure Setting of the RS-422-A/RS-485 parameters must be carried out using the 4 dip switches located next to the module connector.
