DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
The ECHO1 command causes the SmartMotor™ to retransmit (or echo out) all serial bytes on
the transmit line that were received on the receive line of COM port 1. This retransmission
occurs when the SmartMotor reads these bytes from the buffer, regardless of whether these
bytes are command or individual data bytes. ECHO_OFF1 terminates the echo capability.
NOTE: It is not recommended to use ECHO when the communications channel is an
RS-485 port such as an M-style motor or a D-style motor with the RS485-ISO
adapter. This mode of communication is half-duplex and is not compatible with the
ECHO command.
EXAMPLE:
EIGN(W,0) 'Make all onboard I/O inputs
ZS 'Clear errors
OCHN(RS4,1,N,9600,1,8,D) 'Open auxiliary com port
ECHO1 'enable echo on aux com port
