7 Kramer Protocol
1
By default, the PL-8 is set to protocol 3000 (see section 7.1) but is also
compatible with Kramer’s Protocol 2000 (see section 7.2).
You can switch protocols by setting DIP-switch 8 OFF for protocol 3000 and
ON for protocol 2000.
7.1 PL-8 Commands in Protocol 2000
This RS-232/RS-485 communication protocol uses four bytes of information
as defined below. For RS-232, a null-modem connection between the
machine and controller is used. The default data rate is 9600 baud, with no
parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
