COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL VER 1.0

DELTA ELECTRONICS, INC.

Communication Interface: RS-232C Communication Protocol ASCII mode, 9600Baud rate,7(Data length), EVENParity,1Stop bit 1. Communication Data Frame STX ADR 1 ADR 0 CMD 1 CMD 0 DATA0 DATA1 . DATAn-1 LRC CHK 1 LRC CHK 0 END 1 END 0 Start character :3AH Communication address: 8-bit address consists of 2 ASCII codes Command code: 8-bit command consists of 2 ASCII codes Contents of data: n 8-bit data consist of 2n ASCII codes. n 37, maximum of 74 ASCII codes LRC check sum: 8-bit check sum consists of 2 ASCII codes End character: END 1 = CR0DHEND 0 = LF0AH

ADRCommunication Address Valid communication addresses are in the range of 031. Communication address equals to 0 means broadcast to all PLC, the PLC will reply normal message to the master device. For example, communication to PLC with address 16 decimal: (ADR 1, ADR 0)=1,01=31H, 0 = 30H CMD (Command code) and DATA (data characters)

The format of data characters depends on the command code. For example, reading continuous 8 words form starting device address 0614H of PLC with address 01H. Field Name Heading Slave Address Command code Starting Address Hi Starting Address Lo Number of Points Hi Number of Points Lo Error Check ( LRC ) Number of Points(max) = 18for 16 bit register = 9for 32 bit register Example (Hex) 3A 01 03 06 14 00 08 DA

LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check) is calculated by summing up, module 256, the values of the bytes from ADR1 to last data character then calculating the hexadecimal representation of the 2s-complement negation of the sum.

For example, reading 1 word form address 0401H of the PLC with address 01H

01H+03H+04H+01H+00+01H = 0AH the 2s-complement negation of 0AH is F6H Exception response: The PLC is been expected to return a normal response after receiving command messages from the master device. The following depicts the conditions that no normal response is replied to the master device. The PLC does not receive the messages due to a communication error; thus the PLC has no response. The master device will eventually process a timeout condition. The PLC receives the messages without a communication error, but cannot handle it, an exception response will return to the master device. In the exception response, the most significant bit of the original command code is set to 1, and an exception code explains the condition that caused the exception is returned.

An example of exception response of command code 01H and exception 02H: Command message: Field Name Heading Slave Address Function Starting Address Hi Starting Address Lo Number of Points Hi Number of Points Lo Error Check ( LRC ) Response message: Field Name Heading Slave Address Function Exception Code Error Check ( LRC ) Example (Hex) 3A 01 81 02 7C Example (Hex) 3A 01 01 04 00 00 10 EA

Exception code: 01

Meaning: Illegal command code: The command code received in the command message is not available for the PLC. Illegal device address: The device address received in the command message is not available for the PLC. Illegal device value: The device value received in the command message is not available for the PLC. Check Sum Error Check if the check Sum is correct Illegal command messages The command message is too short. Command message length is out of range.
