SERIAL CONNECTIONS TO A HOST TERMINAL
Six controllers are used to monitor and control parts packaging machines
in a plant. The controllers are located at each machine in the production area
of the building. A communication line is run to an industrial computer located
in the production office.
Each controller is programmed for a different address and all are
programmed for the same baud rate and parity as the computer (ex. 9600
baud, parity even). An application program is written by the user to send and
receive data from the units using the proper commands.
