Description
The port MEWTOCOL−COM response time specified by No. 1 keyword is delayed based on the contents
specified by No. 2 keyword.
This instruction is used to delay the response time on the PLC side until the state is reached in which
commands can be sent by an external device and responses can be received from the PLC.
<Usage example>
When a commercial RS232C/RS485 converter is being used to carry out communication between a
personal computer and the FPΣ, this instruction is used to return the PLC response after switching of the
enable signal has been completed on the converter side.
