328 ASCII Instructions
Instruction Operation
This instruction executes on a true rung.
The following conditions cause the controller to set the ASCII String
Manipulation Error bit (S:5/15):
• Source string length is less than 1 or greater than 82
• Index value is less than 1 or greater than 82
• Number value is less than 1 or greater than 82
• Index value greater than the length of the Source string
The Destination string is not changed in any of the above error
conditions. When the ASCII String Manipulation Error bit (S:5/15) is set,
the Invalid String Length Error (1F39H) is written to the Major Error Fault
Code word (S:6).
AHL - ASCII Handshake
Lines
Instruction Type: output
The AHL instruction is used to set or reset the RS-232 Request to Send
(RTS) handshake control line for a modem. The controller uses the two
masks to determine whether to set or reset the RTS control line, or leave it
unchanged. The channel configuration must be set to ASCII.
Entering Parameters
Enter the following parameters when programming this instruction:
• Channel is the number of the RS-232 port, Channel 0.
• AND Mask is the mask used to reset the RTS control line. Bit 1
corresponds to the RTS control line. A value of “2” in the AND mask
resets the RTS control line; a value of “0” leaves the line unchanged.
