Instructions
The following functions can be used with CS/CJ-series CPU Units with unit
version 4.0 or later, or CJ2-series CPU Units.
TXD_SCU(<Send_string>,
<SCU_unit_number>,
<Serial_port>,<Internal_
logic_port>)
Send_string STRING --- Sends a text string to a
serial port on a Serial
Communications Unit.
TXD_SCU(a,b,c,d)
(*text string a is sent from
the serial port specified by
variable c on the Serial
Communications Unit speci-
fied by variable b using the
internal logic port specified
by variable d*. The variable
d indicates the internal logic
port number.)
