RS-232
This method allows bidirectional data transfer via a three-conductor cable consisting of signal ground, receive input
and transmit output. It is recommended for communication distances less than 50 feet between the computer termi-
nal and the instrument. Note: Multiple instruments cannot be connected to the same port.
The RS232 port is optically isolated to eliminate ground loop problems. Typically, “Data Out” of the computer/
terminal connects to the “RCV” terminal. “Data In” connects to the “XMT” terminal. If shielded cable is used, it
should be connected to the frame ground at one end only. Signal ground is to be connected at appropriate ground
terminals (refer to wiring diagram on bottom of this page).
RS-485
The RS485 multipoint capability allows up to 32 controllers to be connected together in a half-duplex network or up
to 100 controllers with an appropriate communications repeater.
This method allows bidirectional data transfer over a twisted pair cable. The twisted pair cable is a transmission line;
therefore, terminating resistors are required at the most distant ends of the line to minimize reflections (typically 120
ohms at each end). The RS485 circuit is fully optically isolated, eliminating ground loop problems. Parallel drops
from the transmission lines should be kept as short as possible; however, the line may be daisy-chained at each
controller. The polarity of the line is important and each device will specify an “A” (+) and “B” (-) connection.

Digital
Communications Option
Omega+ Protocol
The Omega+ Protocol provides an easy way to query and modify controller parameters using a personal computer
and the optional digital communications option of the 18C/25C.
In this manual, the word “host” refers to the personal computer that’s communicating with the controllers in the
serial link, and the word “slave” refers to the controllers themselves.
All transactions between the host and the slaves are done with messages consisting of only printable ASCII charac-
ters. There are only two primary types of messages: Requests and Responses. Messages coming from the host are
called requests and messages coming from the slaves are called responses.
With the exception of a broadcast request, for every request sent from the host, the slave will send back a response.
If a slave does not respond within 100 milliseconds, then the request can be considered lost.
A broadcast request is a request having an ID of ‘00’ (see Message Formats below). It is used to address all slaves
on the network. All slaves on the network will perform the actions requested in a broadcast message. However, a
response message will not be returned. Therefore, the host can only broadcast Write or Auxiliary Command
Requests. All slaves will ignore all Read Broadcast Requests.
Message Formats
All Omega+ messages adhere to the general format of:
[START CHAR][ID][ZONE][TYPE][PARAM][ERROR][DATA][CHKSUM][END CHAR]
START CHAR
This is a single character which designates the start of the message. For a Request message, this character is the
ASCII ‘$’ and for a Response message, this character is the ASCII ‘%’.
ID
This is a two-character ID identifying the receiving controller. Controller IDs go from 1-255 inclusively and all slaves
in the network must have unique IDs. The ID number of ‘00’, when used in a request, designates a broadcast mes-
sage that is used to address all controllers in the network. See the section Request Message for an explanation of the
broadcast message.
In order to represent 255 with just two ASCII characters, a number system known as the Message Code Numbering
System is used. In this system, the most significant digit is represented with the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-Z
and the least significant digit is represented with the numbers 0-9.
The numbers 0-9 have the same values as their decimal counterparts and the letters A-Z have the values of 100 - 50
inclusively in increments of 10.
Example:
Message Code Value
=
Decimal Value
00
99

A2

0 + 0 = 00
90 + 9 = 99
100 + 0 = 100
100 + 2 = 102
110 + 8 = 118
250 + 5 = 255
Zone
This is a two character ID identifying the Zone number in multi-zone capable controllers. For the 18C/25C, this num-
ber must be 01.

CHKSUM
This is a two character Message Code Numbering System, representing the sum of all the ASCII values of all the
characters (excluding the START, CHAR, the END CHAR, and the CHKSM themselves) in the message. The sum
is computed using the following formula:
CHKSM = SUM(All Message Characters)%256
% represents the modulus operator.
END CHAR
This is a single character designating the end of the message. For all messages, the character used is <CR>, the
carriage return.

Request Messages are sent from the host to the slaves. Each request will have an ID identifying the intended
recipient of the request. If the ID is ‘00’ (zero), then the request is a broadcast message.
All slaves will perform the action requested in the broadcast request. However, a response message will not be
returned. Therefore, it only makes sense to send Write or Auxiliary Command Requests as broadcast requests.
There are three types of Request Messages: Read, Write, and Auxiliary Commands.
*Examples of the responses to these requests are given in later sections on Response Messages.

Response Messages:
Response Messages are replies to the requests sent from the host. For each
request received, the slave will reply back with a response.
For all requests, the Omega+ Protocol specifies a maximum response time
of 100 milliseconds. If the controller does not start responding within 100
milliseconds after the last request character is received, that request can be
considered lost. See Figure 2 below.
There are three types of Response Messages:
Read, Write, and Auxiliary Commands.
