FH/FZ5 Processing Item Function Reference Manual
Character Output
Characters are output in the ASCll format as follows:
• When read successfully
Header + character count + code quality + reading characters + FCS + footer + delimiters
• When not read successfully
Header + error code + error characters + FCS + footer + delimiters
Item Description
Header
What is specified for the Header is output. (No
ne may be specified.)
None is output for PLC link.
Character count
This is output only when "Character coun
t output" is specified.
Only the reading characters are counted as part of the character cou
nt, and if "Output range specify" is
specified, the character count of only that range is output.
For example, if no character is prese
n
t in the output range, such as when the read character count is 1
and the output range is 2 to 3, 0 will be output.
If "Reading character output" is not sp
ecified,
0 will be output.
If kanji characters are included in the reading characters, one
kanji character is counted as 1. (This is
different from byte count.)
The output can be switched between 2 bytes and 4 bytes. 0 is
a
dded to the left digit if the character
count is less than the byte count (Example: 0010 for 10). "--" is output if the character count in 2-byte
output reaches 100 or more.
Code quality
This is output only when the "Code qu
ality output" is specified.
The output format is "CxxxFxxxExxx". C represents the contrast, while F and E repr
esent the focus
and the cell recognition rate, respectively. xxx represents each value (0 to 100), and 0 is added to the
left digit if the value is less than 3 digits (Example: 005 for 5).
Reading character
This is output only if "Reading chara
cter output" is specified.
If "Output range specify" is specified, only the
characters of that range are output.
For example, if no character is presen
t in the output range, such as when the read character count is 1
and the output range is 2 to 3, no character will be output.
Error code This is output only when "Error code output" is specified.
Error character This is output only when "Error character output" is specified.
FCS
This is output only when "FCS" is set to "Available".
The value obtained through an XOR in unit of bytes is output.
The applicable range includes the character count, code quality, reading characters, error codes and
error characters.
0
will be output if nothing that can be output is present in the applicable range.
None is output for PLC link.
Footer
What is specified for the F
ooter is
output.
None is output for PLC link.
Delimiter
The delimiters specified in the system data are added
only for serial c
ommunication non-procedure
output.
