1.2 S2T CPU Module

Free ASCII mode

The free ASCII mode is used to connect between the S2T and various serial ASCII
devices, such as a micro computer, bar code reader, printer, display, etc.

By using this mode, the S2T can work as a communication master. Therefore, the
S2T can communicate with other PLCs using the computer link protocol, and can

control variable speed drives (such as Toshiba’s VF-S7) using its communication

protocol

S2T

Max. 32 devices

In this mode, user defined ASCII messages can be transmitted and/or received

through the link port of the S2T.

The ASCII message (one set of transmission characters) means a string of ASCII
characters which is ended by specified trailing code. The default setting of the trailing
code is CR (carriage return code = HOD)

Applicable message format (default trailing code):

1

2

3

4

N-1

N

CR

N: message length = 512 bytes max.

In other words, the S2T cannot be used for the data communication in which the

transmission message is ended by two or more types of trailing code.
