3. Instruction Set
3-271
6. When RS instruction is applied for communication between a PLC and peripheral devices,
usually the STX (Start of the text) and the ETX (End of the text) have to be defined. User can
use D1124~D1126 to set the STX and the ETX by means of COM2, or use the STX and the
ETX defined by the PLC. If the users use M1126, M1130, D1124~D1126 to set the STX and the
ETX, b8~b10 in D1120 using the RS-485 communication protocol need to be set to 1. Please
refer to the table below.

D1125: H 000D (CR)
D1126: H 000A (LF)
7. Example of setting communication format in D1120:
Communication format:
Baud rate: 9600, 7, N, 2
STX : “: “
ETX1 : “CR”
ETX2 : “LF”
Check to the table in point 4 and the set value H788 can be referenced corresponding to the
baud rate. Set the value into D1120.

When STX, ETX1 and ETX2 are applied, care should be taken on setting the ON/OFF status of
M1126 and M1130.
