Initial Settings for No-protocol Communications
To perform no-protocol communications with RS-232C, you must set the communications baud rate, data
length, and other RS-232C communications parameters.
[Sensor settings] − [Data output] − [No-protocol data]
1 Press [Communication type] − [No protocol (RS-232C)].
2 Set the RS-232C communications parameters.
Item Description Parameter
Baud rate [bps] Set the baud rate to use for RS-232C communications.
Set the same baud rate as the external device that you will communi-
cate with.
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200,
38400, 57600, or 115200
(default: 38400)
Data length [bits] Set the same data length as the external device that you will communi-
cate with.
7 bits or 8 bits
(default: 8 bits)
Parity Sets the parity. Set the same setting as the one in the PLC communica-
tions specifications.
None, Odd, or Even (default:
none)
Stop bit Set the number of stop bits. Set the same value as the one in the PLC
communications specifications.
1 bit or 2 bits (default: 1 bit)
Flow control Controls the flow of communications with the software. None or Xon/Xoff (default:
none)
Delimiter Set the delimiter to add to the end of commands and responses.
Set the same delimiter as the external device that you will communicate
with.
CR, LF, or CR+LF (default:
CR)
Interval timeout Set the time in seconds to generate a timeout error. 1 to 120 s, 0: Not monitored.
(default: 0 s)
Total timeout Set the time in seconds to generate a timeout error. 1 to 120 s, 0: Not monitored.
(default: 0 s)
