Communications

This chapter covers:

communication port parameters
inputting part programs from a tape reader
outputting part programs to a tape punch
verifying saved materials
error conditions for inputting and outputting part programs

This section covers the communication port parameters that are available
with the control. You use communication parameters to let the control
communicate with peripheral devices.

The control has default parameters permanently stored in memory for a
number of peripheral devices. These devices are listed in Table 9.A and
are selected by the DEVICE parameter. You can also modify the default
parameter separately for each device.

This section explains how to change communication parameter values. A
description of each of the parameters is presented in section 9.1.2.
