[Sending HEX numbers from JAZZ]

Hi,

There are 2 ways to send string as HEX. You can use either the control characters or using the variable stream.

When using the stream variable you will need to link a vector which holds the values required.

Attached is also example application for sending this string in both ways.

Thanks for example!

Here is the string as hex numbers:00:AA:01:00:60:0F:00:00:00:00:00:D1:55communication: 600 bps 8,n,1

No, sending NULL is not possible. This is the sign of end of string.

Ok, so I need to move Vision series and "send protocol" function block?

Hello

I havent been able to send NUL characters in the message 0x00. Is this even possible with Jazz?

[Sending HEX numbers from JAZZ]

For each "character" you can set any value in range of byte (0-255, 0x0 - 0xFF). Please note - if you want to send out values above 127, you need to set communication to 8 data bits 9not default for Jazz 7).

Ok. How about receiving a string of Hex characters? I understood that the SMS should have stantard format to receive it correctly by JAZZ. I didint found any examples of receiving string of multiple variables in it.

Yes, it's possible. You need ot define the string you want to send as a special variable and thhen to add this variable as SMS and send out.

In U90Ladder > Help menu > Sample ... > SMS there is a demo "SMS - print special characters". I hope this well explained example will be useful for you.

Thanks Emil!

Does it support extended ASCII characters as well ? For example if i want to send aa, does it work if i write 170 as a start up value ?

Do I need to put Linearization function on?

[Sending HEX numbers from JAZZ]

Is it possible to send plain HEX bytes via JAZZ. The SMS function supports only ASCII, but I would like to send plain String if HEX numbers.

For example I have a controller which accepts following dataframe:

0aa:01:00:3c:64:50:3c:0:0:0:1f:55 (Colon separates different commands)

Is this possible?
