Receiving serial data with a CJ1M question

[Huxley 0]

I'd like to use a CJ1M controller to receive data via the 9 pin serial port on the unit. I'd like to capture the live data and port it to a DM file. I have an idea that Host link is involved but, but I'm hoping that someone can point me to some past examples, or give me some advice. Baud Rate: 115 200 Thank you!

Take a look at the RXD(235) instruction. It will receive up to 256 bytes of data at a time and store it directly into D registers. The TXD(236) instruction is the corresponding transmit instruction.

Using RXD and TXD, requires that the port be set up for a MODE of RS232C in the settings window for the Host Link port. This means that it is using a "no protocol" mode with the RXD / TXD instructions.

Welcome to the forum. What device will be sending the data? The "Host Link" port can be configured in different ways depending on the connected device.
