“SysComReadControl” function
With the onboard RS232 interface of the CPU101 the control
cables/lines are not available. Therefore, the “SysComReadCon-
trol” module is not to be used for this interface.
The XIOC-SER hardware interface module avails of control/inter-
face lines. This allows the “SysComReadControl” module read
access to the control/interface lines of the COM2 and COM3 inter-
face.
