Half−duplex transmission should be used for general−use serial communication.
Reception is disabled when the reception completed flag (R9038) is on.
Be aware that the reception completed flag (R9038) changes even while a scan is in
progress. (Example: If the reception completed flag is used multiple times as an input
condition, there is a possibility of different statuses existing within the same scan.)
When the F144 (TRNS) instruction is executed, the error flag (R9037), reception
completed flag (R9038) and transmission completed flag (R9039) go off.
Duplex transmission is disabled while the F144 (TRNS) instruction is being executed.
Check the transmission completed flag (R9039) to determine whether duplex
transmission is possible.
