7 Check Sum
The Check Sum is data to which 2-Byte ASCII code is added to a data group that is returned by a GET command.

when these values are added the result is 1F5 (hex)
as the data format, OB is converted to ASCII code and sent
The following data is output from the plasma display side.
xx, where xx is 0B (hex), is added to 1F5 so the last two digits are 00 (in this case 200)

The data group is put into binary code
one character at a time then displayed.
Only the last two digits are displayed.
7 Examples of check sum applications
Example 1) When the data is missing 1 Byte
47 41 31 30 30 32 38
check sum [OB (hex)] and the calculated [3C (hex)] do not match
Data
100 (missing data) 28
Check sum
0B
ETX
03 (hex)
STX
02 (hex)
GET command
GAA
data group is calculated according to rules set by a PC application
when these values are added, the result is 1C4 (hex)
≠
≠
≠
value xx, where xx is 3C (hex), is added to 1C4 such that the last
two digits are 00 (in this case 200)
Since they do not match, the PC application repeats the GET command
and retrieves the data again.
Example 2) When 1 Byte of data in the data is unreadable
47 41 31 30 33 30 32 38
check sum [OB (hex)] and the calculated [09 (hex)] do not match.

≠
value xx, where xx is 09 (hex), is added to 1F7 such that the last
two digits are 00 (in this case 200)
Since they do not match, the PC application repeats the GET command
and retrieves the data again.
*The returned data group is in capital English letters. Please keep this in mind when introducing it into
the binary code. .
