Communications by RS-232C

Control of the NT600S by a Host is executed by two kinds of commands supported
by the RS-232C interface which is built into the NT600S.

Operation commands

Operation commands are used to control the display and status of the running
NT600S as well as to notify information.

Screen display, data writing, data inquiries, etc.

Notification of the NT600S operation contents to the Host.

Terminal commands

Terminal commands are used to use the NT600S as a display terminal of the Host.

When the NT600S is used as a display terminal, it can display characters and fig-
ures in accordance with instructions given by the Host, independently of the
screens registered to the NT600S.

These commands are also used if unexpected problems occur.
