15 13 Remote Operation RS-232 Control The TPS150 RS-232 serial control port accepts serial commands from a control system, computer serial port, or any other device capable of sending out serial ASCII commands at compatible baud rates. A complete listing of RS-232 codes is included below. Communication Protocol: 8 data bits 1 stop bit No parity check 9600 baud (factory default setting) Protocol Structure All commands sent to the unit must contain a leading character, the actual command, and an ending character. The TPS150 can accept multiple commands, storing them in a buffer. It immediately executes each command in the order it was issued. The TPS150 recognizes [ and ] as leading and ending characters, also called Command Codes. The factory default for the Command Code is [ ]. Some sample command codes follow. For example: This part of the command string... Represents: [ The leading character ADDRxx The actual command. ] The ending character This command string... Means: [ADDRxx] Assign an address to the unit, 01 to 97, xx = INLINE, INC. TPS150 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.1 7/17/02

16 14 Serial Commands The TPT150 and TPR150 act as a unit and will not function unless they are connected via the CAT5 cable and both are powered up. The TPT150 will receive information from the host computer via the RS-232 serial port. This information will be routed to the TPS150 or can be passed-thru to the display device for direct serial control. The RS-232 Serial Port on the TPT150 requires a null modem cable. DB-9 Connector for RS-232 Pin # Signal 2 RX 3 TX 5 GND Addressing Commands Addresses are either used to route information to the TPS150 or passed through to the display device. By definition the display device equipment has an address number that is one address larger than the TPS150. The factory default for the TPS150 is 97. Address 00 is a broadcast address and all units connected will perform the action commanded however no responses will be issued. To open communications to an addressed device you must send a [CCxx] command prior to issuing the first command. All other devices connected will ignore the commands until they are addressed. COMMAND [ADDRxx] [ADDR@] [CCxx] DESCRIPTION Assigns an address to the unit, 01 to 97. Address 99 is reserved for future products. xx = Restores factory default address for the unit. The factory default address is 97. Connects controller/host computer to the addressed unit. 00 is a broadcast address thus all connected devices will perform commands but no responses will be sent. This command is to be used in conjunction with the [ADDRxx] command string. This command string is case sensitive. xx = TPS150 OPERATION MANUAL - v1.1 7/17/ INLINE, INC.
