9.11 Data Transfer by PLC
9.11.1 PLC modules
With the following PLC modules you can control the data interfaces from the
PLC:
 Modules 9100 and 9101: Assign/release the data interfaces
 Module 9102: Interrogate the status of the interface
 Modules 9103 and 9104: Transmit and receive a string from the string
memory. The transmit and receive buffers for the PLC are 128 characters
long. Since every STRING ends with an END character, a STRING can only
be up to 127 characters long.
 Modules 9105 and 9106: Transfer a block of binary values (bytes) from the
word memory
 Module 9107: Read bytes from the receiving buffer without erasing the
buffer
 Modules 9112 and 9113: Send or receive ASCII characters via the data
interface
Strings and binary data are transmitted using ASCII characters. Example:
Transfer of a block of binary data
When transferring binary data starting from the address B126, the ASCII
characters <F> <A> <8> <1> etc. are transmitted in sequence from the word
memory through the interface. Each byte contains two ASCII characters. The
transmitting and receiving buffers each hold 63 bytes.
