GENERAL INFORMATION 
 
The 6155AS is a six digit remote display module. It accepts serial ASCII 
coded data into a differential or single ended line receiver, at common Baud 
rates. 
 
Numeric data and a selection of other characters can be displayed. The 
character set includes decimal point and negative sign. Simple messages 
e.g. 
Hi ALL 
o
C 
o
F
 
can be formed with characters presentable on 
seven segment displays. 
 
Multiple serial data may be transferred by sending code 03 followed by 02, an 
address from 0 to 15 ( ASCII 30 to 3F) and the data. The address 0 (ASCII 
30) is common to all remote displays for simultaneous display of the same 
message. 
 
The 6155AS may be set-up to operate in a 'strobed' mode whereby the data 
string is transferred to the display on reception of a carriage return. 
Alternatively a 'shift' mode can be used in which the characters are displayed 
according to their current position in the input shift register. Two further modes 
enable connection to the Newport 269 and P6000 panel meters for 'remote 
display purposes.
