Chapter 1- Introduction
485SDD16 Features
The 485SDD16 is a general purpose control module that
operates through an RS-485 interface. The 485SDD16 offers 16
discrete digital I/O lines. With these features, the module can be
used to sense external ON/OFF conditions and to control a variety
of devices.
Each of the sixteen I/O lines can be defined as either an input or
an output. The digital outputs are CMOS compatible. The digital
inputs are CMOS/TTL compatible. The digital I/O lines are available
through a DB-25S (female) connector.
The 485SDD16 connects to the host computer’s RS-485 or RS-
422 serial port using terminal blocks. The address and turn-around
delay are software programmable to allow for use of multiple
devices or connection to existing multi-node systems. The unit
automatically detects baud rates from 1200 to 9600. A data format
of 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity is used.
Configuration parameters are stored in non-volatile memory.
These parameters consists of module address, communication turn-
around delay, I/O definitions, and output power-up states.
The unit is powered by connecting +12Vdc to terminal blocks or
to the DB-25S I/O connector.

Serial Port Connections
Chapter 2 - Connections
In order to communicate to the 485SDD16 module it must be
connected to an RS-422/RS-485 serial port. The 485SDD16 will
work on a 2-wire or 4-wire RS-485 multi-node network. Refer to
B&B Electronics’ free RS-422/485 Application Note for more
information. The unit automatically detects baud rates from 1200 to
9600. A data format of 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity is used.
Connections are made using terminal blocks. Table 2.2 shows the
terminal blocks and their functions.
This chapter will cover the connections required for the
485SDD16. There are three sets of connections: digital I/O, serial
port, and power supply. Do not make any connections to the
485SDD16 until you have read this chapter.
Digital I/O Connections
Connections to the I/O lines are made through the DB25S
(female) I/O port connector. Refer to Table 2.1. See Chapter 5 for
I/O interfacing examples.

A typical 2-wire RS-485 connection is shown in Figure 2.3 and a
typical RS-422 (or RS-485 4-wire) connection is shown in Figure
2.4. Note that the 485SDD16 data line labels use “A” and “B”
designators (per EIA RS-485 Specification). However, some RS-485
equipment uses “+” and “-“ as designators. In almost all cases, the
“A” line is the equivalent of the “-“ line and the “B” is the equivalent of
the “+” line. With an RS-485/422 system there are other factors that
require consideration, such as termination and turn-around delay.

Chapter 3 - Commands
There are only two commands required to control the 485SDD16:
set output lines, and read I/O lines. Five additional commands are
used for configuring the module: set module address, set turn-
around delay, define I/O lines, set power-up states, and read
configuration. Command strings are from four to six bytes in length:
the “!” character, an address byte, two command characters, and
one or two data bytes (if required). (See Table 3.1).

Syntax
Command strings consist of four to six bytes. The first byte is the
start of message byte. The start of message byte is always the
ASCII “!” character. The second byte is the address byte. This byte
allows each unit to have a unique address. The factory default
address is the ASCII "0" character. The next two bytes are the
command characters. These bytes are ASCII characters and used
to specify which command will be executed by the module. Some
commands require an argument field containing a fifth and
sometimes a sixth data byte. Commands that manipulate I/O lines
require two data bytes, a Most Significant and a Least Significant
data byte respectively.

5th Data Byte
Before going into the specifics of each command, it is important
to understand that a byte has a numeric value from 0 to 255. The
byte's value can be represented in decimal (0 - 255) format,
hexadecimal (00 - FF) format, binary (00000000 - 11111111) format,
or as an ASCII character. The fixed bytes of each command will be
represented as ASCII characters. For example the Read I/O
command contains the following ASCII characters: “!" and "RD”.
Refer to Table 3.1. However, it is important to remember that an
ASCII character has a numeric value. Example: the ASCII "0" (zero)
does not have a numeric value of zero but has a value of 48. The
decimal and hexadecimal equivalents of some ASCII characters are
shown in Table 3.2. Some commands require additional data bytes
to complete the command. These data bytes may be represented in
any of the formats list above. Refer to Appendix A for more ASCII
and decimal equivalents.

I/O Data Bytes
When constructing commands to manipulate output lines or
when reading the state of the I/O lines it is necessary to know how to
select and interpret the I/O data bytes. The sixteen I/O lines are
represented by two data bytes. The Most Significant data byte
represents I/O lines #15 through #8 and the Least Significant data
byte represents I/O lines #7 through #0. The Most Significant byte is
always sent and received first followed by the Least Significant byte.

Read I/O Lines Command
A byte represents an eight-bit binary number (11111111),
therefore each byte can represent eight I/O lines. Each bit is
assigned a bit position and a weight (value). Refer to Table 3.3.
The Read I/O Lines command returns two data bytes that reflect
the state of the I/O lines. The first data byte contains the most
significant I/O lines (15 - 8). The second data byte contains the least
significant I/O lines (7 - 0). If a bit is a "0" then the state of that I/O
line is LOW. If a bit is a "1" then the state of that I/O line is HIGH.

To set an output to a HIGH state the corresponding bit position
must be set to a "1". Conversely to set an output LOW the
corresponding bit position must be set to a "0". When reading I/O
lines, any bit set to a "0" indicates the corresponding I/O line is in
the LOW state and any bit set to a "1" indicates the corresponding
I/O line is in the HIGH state.
Set Output Lines Command
The Set Output Lines command is used to set the states of the
output lines. This command requires two data bytes. These data
bytes specify the output state of each output line. The first data byte
represents the most significant I/O lines (15 - 8). The second data
byte represents the least significant I/O lines (7 - 0). If a bit position
is set to a "0" then the state of that output line will be set LOW. If a
bit position is set to a "1" then the state of that output line will be set
HIGH.

Define I/O Lines Command
The Define I/O Lines command is used to define each of the 16
I/O lines as either an input or an output. This command requires two
data bytes. Each data byte defines eight I/O lines. The first data
byte defines the eight most significant I/O lines (15 - 8). The second
data byte defines the eight least significant digital I/O lines (7 - 0). If
a bit position is set to a "0" then the I/O line will defined as an input.
If a bit position set to a "1" then the I/O line will be defined as an
output.
Set Module Address Command
The Set Module Address command is used to change the
address of a 485SDD16. This commands requires one data byte.
This data byte is used to specify the module's new address.
Addresses can be assigned any decimal value from 0 to 255. The
address is stored in non-volatile memory and is effective
immediately. Each module must be assigned its own unique
address when connected to an RS-485 muti-node network.

Set Turn-around Delay Command
The Set Turn-around Delay command sets the amount of time
the 485SDD16 waits before transmitting its response. This ensures
that no two drivers are enabled at the same time on a two-wire RS-
485 network. The turn-around delay is stored in non-volatile
memory. This command requires a data byte that specifies the turn-
around delay. Where {turn-around delay} is a number from 0 to 255.
One unit of turn-around is equal to one character transmission time.
The turn-around delay can be computed as follows:
character time = (1 / baud rate) * 10
turn-around delay = character time * data byte

Set Power-up States Command
The Set Power-up States command is used to set the states of
output lines when the module's power is recycled. This command
requires two data bytes. These data bytes specify the output state
of each output line. The first data byte represents the eight most
significant I/O lines (15 - 8). The second data byte represents the
eight least significant I/O lines (7 - 0). If a bit position is set to a "0"
then the state of that output line will be set LOW. If a bit position is
set to a "1" then the state of that output line will be set HIGH.

the turn-around delay. Six data bytes are returned. The first two
data bytes contain the definition of the eight most significant I/O lines
(15 - 8) and the eight least significant I/O lines (7 - 0) respectively. If
a bit position is set to a "0" the I/O line is defined as an input, if set to
a "1" the I/O line is defined as an output. The second two data bytes
contain the power-up states of the most significant output lines (15 -
8) and the least significant output lines (7 - 0) respectively. If a bit
position is set to a "0" the power-up state of the output will be LOW,
if set to a "1" the output will be HIGH. The fifth data byte is the
module's address. The sixth data byte is the turn-around delay.
Command: !{addr}RC
Argument: none
Response: definition of the sixteen I/O lines in two 8 bit bytes, and
the power-up states in two 8 bit bytes. (shown in bold face)

Chapter 4 - I/O Interfacing
This chapter will explain "HIGH" and "LOW" states and show
some general examples of how to interface to the I/O lines. Caution
must be taken not to exceed 485SDD16 specifications listed in
Chapter 1 when interfacing to external devices. Failure to stay
within these specifications could result in damage to the unit and will
void warranty.
Digital Inputs
As stated earlier, digital input lines are CMOS/TTL compatible
and can only handle voltages from 0Vdc to +5Vdc.
Digital inputs are used to sense a HIGH or a LOW state. This
can be accomplished via switch closures, contact closures, or a
solid state digital signal. When an I/O line, defined as an input,
senses a voltage level above +2.0Vdc it will be considered "HIGH"
and it's input state will be read as a "1". Conversely, when an input
senses a voltage level below +1.0Vdc it will be considered "LOW"
and it's input state will be read as a "0".
Figure 4.2 - Solid State Input
Inputs can also be used to sense AC voltages by using
mechanical or solid state relays. Solid state relays are available
from many manufacturers.
Figures 4.1 - 4.4 show examples of some typical input interfaces.

Digital Outputs
Figure 4.6 - Isolated Solid State Output
Digital outputs are used to turn on or turn off external devices.
Digital outputs are CMOS compatible and operate between 0Vdc
and +5Vdc. Outputs can be used to control solid state output
modules, CMOS and TTL logic circuits. Caution must be taken not
to exceed the power capability of the outputs. Refer to the output
specifications in Chapter 1.
Setting an output line to a "1" forces the output HIGH, and setting
an output line to a "0" forces the output LOW.
Figures 4.5 - 4.6 show examples of some typical output
interfaces.

Example 5.1 - Determining the status of I/O lines #2 & #10 of
module #5.
Chapter 5 - Software
Maddr = 5
mask = &H4
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "RD"
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
MSIO$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
This chapter will be divided into two sections. The first section
covers programming techniques for constructing a command string,
receiving data and manipulating data in QuickBASIC. The second
section discusses how to install and run the demonstration program
on an IBM PC or compatible.
LSIO$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
MSIO = ASC(MSIO$)
LSIO = ASC(LSIO$)
Programming Techniques
MSstatus = MSIO AND mask
LSstatus = LSIO AND mask
If LSstatus equals zero then I/O line #2 is LOW. If LSstatus is not
equal to zero then I/O line #2 is HIGH. If MSstatus equals zero then
I/O line #10 is LOW. If MSstatus is not equal to zero then I/O line
#10 is HIGH.
This section shows steps and examples of programming the
485SDD16 in QuickBasic. If you are programming in another
language, this section can be helpful as a guideline for programming
the 485SDD16.
Read I/O Lines Command
The Read I/O Lines command returns two data bytes that
represents the states of the module's I/O lines. Refer to this
command in Chapter 3 for more information.
Step 1 - Constructing the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "RD"
Where Maddr is the address of the module that is to return its I/O
states.
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
Step 3 - Receiving the data:
MSIO$ = INPUT$(1,#1)

Step 4 - Manipulating the data:
MSIO = ASC(MSIO$)
LSIO = ASC(LSIO$)
Read Configuration Command
The Read Configuration command reads the module's I/O
definitions, Power-up states, Address, and Turn-around delay
respectively. Refer to this command in Chapter 3 for more
information.
Step 1 - Constructing the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "RC"
Where Maddr is the address of the module that is to return its
configuration.
Step 5 - Determining an I/O's status:
MSstatus = MSIO AND mask
LSstatus = LSIO AND mask
By "ANDing" the value of MSIO or LSIO with the appropriate
mask of an I/O line, the status of the I/O line can be determined.
If the status is equal to zero the I/O line is LOW. If the status is not
equal to zero the I/O line is HIGH. Table 5.1 shows the mask
values for each I/O line.
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
Step 6 - Repeat Step 5 until the status of each I/O line has been
determined.

Maddr = 5
Step 3 - Receiving the data:
mask = &H4
MSdefs$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "RC"
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
LSdefs$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
MSpups$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
MSdefs$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
LSdefs$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
MSpups$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
LSpups$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Maddr$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Mtdly$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
MSdefs = ASC(MSdefs$)
LSdefs = ASC(LSdefs$)
MSpups = ASC(MSpups$)
LSpups = ASC(LSpups$)
Maddr = ASC(Maddr$)
Mtdly = ASC(Mtdly$)
LSpups$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Maddr$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Mtdly$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Step 4 - Manipulating the data:
MSdefs = ASC(MSdefs$)
LSdefs = ASC(LSdefs$)
MSpups = ASC(MSpups$)
LSpups = ASC(LSpups$)
Maddr = ASC(Maddr$)
Mtdly = ASC(Mtdly$)
Step 5 - Determining the I/O line definitions:
MSdefs = MSdefs AND mask
LSdefs = LSdefs AND mask
MSdefs = MSdefs AND mask
LSdefs = LSdefs AND mask
MSpups = MSpups AND mask
LSpups = LSpups AND mask
By "ANDing" the value of MSdefs or LSdefs with the appropriate
mask of an I/O line, the I/O line definition can be determined. If
the status is equal to zero the I/O line is an INPUT. If the status is
not equal to zero the I/O line is an OUTPUT. Table 5.1 shows the
mask values for each I/O line.
Step 6 - Repeat Step 5 until the status of each I/O line has been
determined.
Step 7 - Determining an OUTPUT's Power-up state:
MSpups = MSpups AND mask
If LSdefs equals zero then I/O line #2 is an INPUT and if not equal
to zero then I/O line #2 is an OUTPUT. If MSdefs equals zero then
I/O line #10 is an INPUT and if not equal to zero then I/O line #10 is
an OUTPUT. If LSpups equals zero then Output line #2's power-up
state is LOW and if not equal to zero then Output line #2's power-up
state is HIGH. If MSpups equals zero then Output line #10's power-
up state is LOW and if not equal to zero then Output line #10's
power-up state is HIGH. Maddr is the decimal address of the
module. Mtdly is the decimal number of character times that make
up the turn-around delay.
LSpups = LSpups AND mask
By "ANDing" the value of MSpups or LSpups with the appropriate
mask of an Output line, the Output line definition can be
determined. If the status is equal to zero the Output power-up
state will be LOW. If the status is not equal to zero the Output
power-up state will be HIGH. Table 5.1 shows the mask values
for each I/O line.
Set Output States Command
The Set Output States command is used to set the states of any
I/O line that is defined as an output. This command requires two
data bytes. Refer to this command in Chapter 3 for more
information.
Step 1a - Construct the command string:
Set appropriate outputs HIGH
Step 8 - Repeat Step 7 until the power-up state of each Output line
has been determined.
Example 5.2 - Determining the definition and power-up state of I/O
lines #2 & #10 of module #5.
MSstates = MSstates OR mask
LSstates = LSstates OR mask
By "ORing" the current states with the appropriate mask of a
digital output line, the output's bit will be set to a "1" (HIGH).

Step 1b - Define an I/O line as an Input
MSdefs = MSdefs AND (NOT(mask))
Step 1b - Set appropriate outputs LOW
MSstates = MSstates AND (NOT(mask))
LSstates = LSstates AND (NOT(mask))
By "ANDing" the current states with the complement of the
appropriate mask of a digital output line, the output's bit will be set
to a "0" (LOW).
Step 1c - Completing the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SO" + CHR$(MSstates) +
CHR$(LSstates)
LSdefs = LSdefs AND (NOT(mask))
By "ANDing" the current definitions with the complement of the
appropriate I/O line mask the I/O line's data bit will be set to a "0"
(LOW) and the I/O line will be defined as an Input.
Step 1c - Completing the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SD" + CHR$(MSdefs) +
CHR$(LSdefs)
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
Print #1, Cmnd$;
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
Print #1, Cmnd$;
Example 5.4 - Define I/O line #7 as an Output (HIGH) and I/O line #8
as an input (LOW) on module #4.
'Set module's address to 4.
Maddr = 4
'Set bit 7 of LSdefs to make I/O line #7 an Output (HIGH).
LSdefs = LSdefs OR &H80
'Clear bit 0 of MSdefs to make I/O line #8 an Input (LOW).
MSdefs = MSdefs AND (NOT(&H1))
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SD" + CHR$(MSdefs) +
CHR$(LSdefs)
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
MSIO$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Example 5.3 - Set Output #0 HIGH and Output #14 LOW of module
#5.
'Set module address.
Maddr = 5
'Set bit 0 of LSstates to make Output #0 HIGH.
LSstates = LSstates OR &H1
'Clear bit 4 of MSstates to make Output #14 LOW.
MSstates = MSstates AND (NOT(&H40))
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SO" + CHR$(MSstates) +
CHR$(LSstates)
I/O #7 will be defined as an Output (HIGH) and I/O line #8 will be
defined as an Input (LOW) of module #4. All other I/O definitions will
not be changed.
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
Output #0 will be set HIGH and output #14 will be set LOW of
module #5. All other output settings of module #5 will not be
changed.
Set Power-up States Command
The Set Power-up States command is used to set the states of
the digital outputs at power-up. This command requires two data
bytes. Refer to this command in Chapter 3 for more information.
Step 1a - Construct the command string:
Set appropriate outputs power-up states HIGH
MSpups = MSpups OR mask
Define I/O Lines Command
The Define I/O Lines command is used to define each of the
module's I/O lines as either an input or an output. This command
requires two data bytes. Refer to this command in Chapter 3 for
more information.
LSpups = LSpups OR mask
Step 1a - Construct the command string:
Define an I/O line as Output
MSdefs = MSdefs OR mask
By "ORing" the current power-up states with the appropriate mask
of a digital output line, the power-up state's data bit will be set to a
"1" (HIGH).
LSdefs = LSdefs OR mask
By "ORing" the current definitions with the appropriate I/O line
mask, the I/O line's data bit will be set to a "1" (HIGH) and the I/O
line will be defined as an Output.

Example 5.6 - Change the address of module with a current address
of 4 decimal to the new address of 5 decimal.
Step 1b - Set appropriate outputs power-up states LOW
MSpups = MSpups AND (NOT(mask))
LSpups = LSpups AND (NOT(mask))
Maddr = 4
Naddr = 5
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SA" + CHR$(Naddr)
Print #1, Cmnd$;
By "ANDing" the current power-up states with the complement of
the appropriate mask of a digital output line, the power-up state's
data bit will be set to a "0" (LOW).
Step 1c - Completing the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SS" + CHR$(MSpups) +
CHR$(LSpups)
Set Turn-around Delay Command
The Set Turn-around Delay command is used to set the amount
of time the module will wait after receiving a command before it
sends the response message. This ensures that no two
communication drivers will be enabled at the same time, and is
necessary when multiple modules share the same communica-
tion lines. The command requires one data byte to specify the turn-
around delay. Refer to this command in Chapter 3 for more
information.
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
Print #1, Cmnd$;
Example 5.5 - Set Output #5's power-up state HIGH and Output
#13's power-up state LOW on module #4.
'Set module address to 4.
Step 1 - Construct the command string:
Maddr = 4
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SC" + CHR$(Ntdly)
Where Maddr if the module's address and Ntdly is the module's
new turn-around delay.
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
Print #1, Cmnd$;
'Set bit 0 of LSpups to make Output #5's power-up state HIGH.
LSpups = LSpups OR &H20
'Clear bit 4 of MSpups to make Output #13's power-up state LOW.
MSpups = MSpups AND (NOT(&H20))
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SS" + CHR$(MSpups) +
CHR$(LSpups)
PRINT #1, Cmnd$;
MSIO$ = INPUT$(1,#1)
Module's #4 output line #5's power-up state will be set HIGH and
output line #13's power-up state will be set LOW. All other output
power-up states will not be changed.
Example 5.7 - Set the turn-around delay of module #5 to 10
character times.
Maddr = 5
Ntdly = 10
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SC" + CHR$(Naddr)
Print #1, Cmnd$;
Set Module Address Command
The Set Module Address command is used to change the
address of the 485SDD16. This command requires a data byte.
The data byte is used to specify the new address of the module.
Step 1 - Construct the command string:
Cmnd$ = "!" + CHR$(Maddr) + "SA" + CHR$(Naddr)
Where Maddr if the module's current address and Naddr is the
module's new address.
Step 2 - Transmitting the command string:
Print #1, Cmnd$;

The decimal (base 10) numbering system represents each
position in successive powers of 10, with each decimal symbol
having a value from 0 to 9. The hexadecimal (base 16) numbering
system represents each position in successive powers of 16 with
each hex symbol having a value of 0 to 15. Since each hex position
must have a single symbol, the symbols "A" through "F" are
assigned to values 10 through 15 respectively. Refer to Table 1.
The information and examples to follow will explain how to convert
from a decimal number to a hexadecimal number and vice versa.

Before connecting any external devices to the DTB25 make sure
the SDD16 module has been properly configured (I/O lines defined,
power-up states set). This will avoid possible damage to the module
and to the external devices. Make sure not to exceed the voltage
and current limits of the SDD16 module, failure to do so could result
in damage to the module and will void the warranty. Refer to the
Specification Section of this Manual.

DBM16
Suppression
The DBM16 module provides buffering and increased power
handling for all the sixteen I/O lines of the SDD16 models. Each of
the I/O lines can be programmed as an input or as an output by
setting a jumper on the board. The DBM16 plugs directly into the
SDD16's DB25S I/O Port connector. Terminal blocks are provided
for all I/O line, power, and ground connections. Refer to Table C.2.
An enclosure for the DBM16 is available.
DBM16 Interfacing
This section will show some general examples of how to
interface the DBM16 I/O lines to external devices. Caution must be
taken not to exceed the DBM16 specifications, failure to do so could
result in damage to the DBM16 and will void the warranty.
Before connecting the DBM16 to the SDD16 module and
connecting any external device to the DBM16 determine which I/O
lines on the SDD16 module are inputs and which are outputs. Once
the inputs and outputs are known, set the jumpers on the DBM16
accordingly. Refer to Figure C.2.

Inputs
Digital inputs are used to sense "HIGH" and "LOW" states based
on voltage levels. This is accomplished via switch closures, contact
closures or a solid state digital signals. Each DBM16 input is pulled
up through a resistor and will be read as a logic "1" (HIGH) by the
SDD16 module. When an input on the DBM16 is grounded (below
+1.5Vdc), a logic "0" (LOW) will be read by the SDD16 module.
Figures C.3 - C.6 show examples of some typical input interfaces.

Outputs
Digital outputs are used to turn "ON" or turn "OFF" external
devices. Outputs can be used to control solid state output modules,
logic circuits, and relays. Caution must be taken not to exceed the
power capability of the outputs. Refer to the DBM16 output
specifications.
Setting the SDD16 module's output line to a "1" turns "ON" the
DBM16's output line. Setting the SDD16 module's output line to a
"0" turns "OFF" the DBM16's output driver. The DBM16 outputs are
open collector current sinking drivers. Figures C.7 - C.9 show
examples of some typical output interfaces.

With serial communications in a laboratory environment, the
possibility of a communication error occurring is minimal. However,
in a harsh or an industrial environment the possibility increases. A
communication error occurs when a bit transmitted as a “1” is
received as a “0” or vice versa. If the 485SDD16 receives a error in
one or more of the first four command characters (“!0xx”), the unit
will not execute the command. However, if the 485SDD16 receives
an communication error on a data byte (I/O byte for Read Digital
command or state byte for Set Output State command), the
command will be executed since the unit has no way of knowing that
there was an error.
To provide the 485SDD16 with a way of detecting errors in the
data fields, an additional set of commands can be used. This set of
commands begins with the “#” (23h) character, instead of the “!”
(21h) character. Refer to Table D-1. With these commands every
data byte that is transmitted or received is followed by its
complement. For example: To read I/O lines:
Command syntax:
#{addr}RD
Response syntax:
{I/O msb}{~ I/O msb}{I/O lsb} {~ I/O lsb}
Where “~” is used to indicate the “complement of.” If I/O has a
reading of 1, the following would be received:
APPENDIX D
Adding Data Field Comfirmation
{00}{FF}{01}{FE}
Where FFh is the complement of 0 and FEh is the complement of
1. The complement of number “x” can be calculated in QuickBasic
as follows:
comp = (NOT x) AND &HFF
