I'm trying to figure out how to set up my program for ascii from port 2. Will only be sending and not receiving. It will be connected to a EZMarque using RS232. I want to send out some data from V memory that only needs to update every 15 minutes or so. There are not too many examples I could find for this and I've tryed all the Print commands with no luck. Thanks
 
See this App note for testing the ASCII output, page 5 has some info on the setup and commands for the DL-06.

See Chapter 5 in Volume 1 beginning at 5-209. See also page 5-225 for example output to port 2.

Link to manual, see chapter 4.

I have never attempted to do this before. After reading most of the manuals in my above post, I decided to try. I don't have any hardware to test this with so use at your own risk. It probably won't work. Just import the text file attached into DirectSoft to test. Energize the X0 input to send the message to the EZMarquee.
