This example demonstrates the basic I/O capabilities of the

1746-BAS BASIC module when used in conjunction with the
SLC-500 processor M files.
Notes:
A 1747-CP3 cable is connected between PRT1 and PRT2 of the
BASIC module to provide instantaneous feedback into ST12:0 when
data is entered into ST11:0.
BASIC Module PRT1 = Input port
BASIC Module PRT2 = Output port

Note that the BASIC module is located in slot 2 of a 4-slot rack, as

shown in the I/O Configuration below.

The data test is entered into ST11:0 as shown below.

CALL 23 Operation:

ASCII data "test" is copied from ST11:0 into the M0 file. Once the
data is copied to the M0 file, the handshake bit O:2.0/7 it set. This
informs the BASIC module that new data is available for PRT2. The
data is then sent out PRT2 via CALL 23 in the BASIC module. No
new data will be sent until the previous data has been acknowledged
by the BASIC module.

CALL 22 Operation:
ASCII data coming into PRT1 of the BASIC module is transferred into
the SLC's M1 file via CALL 22 in the BASIC Module. When data is
available in the M1 file, the BASIC module sets handshake bit I:2.0/8.
The data is then copied from the M1 file to the ST12:0 string file.
Once the data has been copied, the SLC sets handshake bit O:2.0/8,
which tells the BASIC module to turn off bit I:2.0/8.

The data copied into ST12:0 shows exactly what was entered into
ST11:0 which proves that the CALL 22 and CALL 23 operations
executed properly.

The following code was used in the BASIC module:

10 MODE (PRT1,19200,N,8,1,N,R)
20 MODE (PRT2,19200,N,8,1,N,R)
30 PUSH 3 : REM SELECTS BASIC MODULE'S I/O BUFFERS TO
BE CLEARED
40 CALL 120 : REM CLEARS M0 AND M1 I/O BUFFERS
50 PUSH 4 : REM PRT2 IS SELECTED AS THE OUTPUT PORT

70 PUSH 0 : REM WORD OFFSET WITHIN THE M0 FILE
80 PUSH 0 : REM IGNORE INTERNAL STRING
90 PUSH 1 : REM ENABLE BYTE SWAPPING

DELIMITER(13=0D)
160 PUSH 1 : REM SELECTS M1 FILE AS DESTINATION FOR
THE DATA
170 PUSH 0 : REM SETS THE OFFSET INTO THE M1 FILE
180 PUSH 0 : REM IGNORE INTERNAL STRING

200 CALL 22 : REM TRANSFERS DATA FROM PRT1 TO THE M1
FILE
210 POP S : REM RETURNS STATUS OF CALL22,
0=SUCCESSFUL
220 IF (S<>0) THEN PRINT "CALL 22 WAS UNSUCCESSFUL"
