Greetings All,
Does anyone have written a program for G3's or can share some wisdom on how to talk Serially and get data from an ASCII device in to a G3? I would like to use the G3 to accomplish this. The manual is pretty vague. For starters, I would like to poll the external devce once a second. I only need to send a "SINGLE" ASCII character out as a command, and the device responds back with 5 different fields with ecah field representing 5 bytes of data that I need to split and distribute to 5 different tags.
How do you detect com errors? Can this be done via programming within the G3.
Just looking to find a simple example or guidance on how to go about this.
Thanks.
