Toolbus Revisited

[PLCnuts 0]

Hi: Does anybody try "AB001480000300000000000001010182000100000301CB" with Hyperterminal? There is no response from PLC. This command was copy from Multiway, It should work with Hyperterminal?

This will not work from Hyperterminal. Toolbus is a binary protocol, and Hyperterminal is an ASCII terminal. The string you copied starts AB0014... That is not an ASCII "AB", it is character 0xAB, or CHR(171). You need a package such as Multiway that can send Binary data.
