STP-iX455/iXL455 Series Instruction Manual
9-12
Operation
Transmission frame when data is transmitted at one block and returned at two blocks:
Designate a query command on the PC.
←Less than 256 chr.→
PC→SIM
Stx 0 0 1 ? CHR C
1
C
n
Etx LRC
SIM→PC
Ack or Nak
Always assign less than 254 characters (n< 254) to the parameter so that the message is
less than 256 characters.
Next, the preceding SIM->PC character is "Ack", the instructed query command is
executed and the SIM returns the following response (1st block).
PC→SIM
Ack or Nak
SIM→PC
Stx 0 0 1 Sp CHR C
1
C
253
Etb LRC
Then, "Ack" is sent by the SIM->PC character in reaction to the response (1st block)
from the SIM, the SIM returns the following response (2nd block).
PC→SIM
Ack or Nak
SIM→PC
Stx 0 0 2
C
254
C
n
Etx LRC
The PC transmits "Ack" or "Nak"; then transmits the next command if necessary.
9.3.5 Transmission Data Format
Data value is always 16 bits signed hexadecimal value coded ASCII text.
Example: 12090 on a decimal basis equals to 2F3A on a hexadecimal basis.
9.3.6 Frame Control (Checksum)
The transmission frame is controlled by the odd number parity check.
First initialize LRC as FF
hex
. Next calculate LRC by EXCLUSIVE-OR (XOR) of all the
frame bytes containing "Stx", "Etb", "Etx" and LRC, and transmit the result as LRC.
Examples: Character string for calculation before calculating LRC
ASCII Stx 0 0 1 # Etx LRC
HEX 02 30 30 31 23 03 FF

Character string for transmission after calculating LRC
ASCII Stx 0 0 1 # Etx LRC
HEX 02 30 30 31 23 03 EC
However, when the MSB (most significant bit) is always 0 when data length is 7 bits, LRC is
set to 6Chex.
