17: USER COMMUNICATION INSTRUCTIONS
« FC4A MICROSMART USER’S MANUAL » 17-23
Example 2: BCC is calculated for the first byte through the sixth byte using the ADD format, converted in binary to
ASCII, and compared with the BCC code appended to the seventh and eighth bytes of the incoming data.
Receive Completion Output
Designate an output, Q0 through Q107, or internal relay, M0 through M1277, as an operand for the receive completion
output.
When the start input for a RXD instruction is turned on, preparation for receiving data is initiated, followed by data con-
version and storage. When a sequence of all data receive operation is complete, the designated output or internal relay is
turned on.
Conditions for Completion of Receiving Data
After starting to receive data, the RXD instruction can be completed in three ways:
• When an end delimiter is received (except when a BCC exists immediately after the end delimiter).
• When receive timeout occurs.
• When a specified byte count of data has been received.
Data receiving is completed when one of the above three conditions is met. To abort a RXD instruction, use the user com-
munication receive instruction cancel flag M8022 or M8023. See page 17-24.
Receive Status
Designate a data register, D0 through D1298 or D2000 through D7998, as an operand to store the receive status informa-
tion including a receive status code and a user communication error code.
Receive Status Code
If the receive status code is other than shown above, an error of receive instruction is suspected. See User Communication
Error Code on page 17-27.

Status Code
Status Description
16 Preparing data receive
From turning on the start input for a RXD instruction to read the
receive format, until the RXD instruction is enabled by an END pro-
cessing
32 Receiving data
From enabling the RXD instruction by an END processing, until incom-
ing data is received
48 Data receive complete
From receiving incoming data, until the received data is converted and
stored in data registers according to the receive format
64 Receive instruction complete
All data receive operation is completed and the next data receive is
made possible

User communication receive
instruction cancel flag active
RXD instructions are cancelled by special internal relay M8022 or
M8023
Comparison result is false.
