Flowstone with RS232

[RZK]

Hi everybody. I use flowstone to communicate with a marking machine. I use a port COM but it send all data in data connection even if I use a trigger switch with a button.

To stop the machine I maked a new port com to send the stop command(i don't find another solution). I communicate in hexadecimal language with the machine.

Other think, i can't receive information from the com port in RS232. How can I get that informations ?

If you need other information please do not hesitate to contact me.

help?

I wrote a Flowstone program to communicate with a cheap Koyo Click PLC using RS-232 MODBUS RTU and it works fine. Let me know if you still need some help.
