Module Programming Interface
Your module can be programmed using an ASCII terminal with ASCII
terminal emulation software. You can also use a personal computer
with the BASIC development software (catalog number 1747-PBASE).
Use an ASCII terminal to enter a BASIC program one line at a time to
the module. Use a personal computer with the BASIC development
software to create a BASIC program that is then downloaded to your
module. Typical programming interface configurations include:
• ASCII terminal interface - Figure 1.4.
• BASIC development software interface (RS-232) - Figure 1.5.
• BASIC development software interface (DH485) - Figure 1.6.
