FX Series Programmable Controllers Points Of Technique 10

10.14 Communication Format
10.14.1 Specification of the communication parameters:
Items such as baud rates, stop bits and parities must be identically set between the two
communicating devices. The communication parameters are selected by a bit pattern which is
stored in data register D8120.
General note regarding the use of Data register D8120:
This data register is a general set-up register for all ADP type communications. Bits 13 to 15 in
the 232ADP units should not be used. When using the FX-485 network with 485ADP units bits
13 to 15 should be used instead of bits 8 to 12.
