ZSSC3170
Automotive Sensor Signal Conditioner with LIN and PWM Interface
3.11. Send Command
This dialog is used for transferring commands
from the PC to the microcontroller on the SSC CB and
reading the result of the commands.
A full summary and detailed command description of
the applicable controller commands are given in the
ZSSC3170 Functional Description.
For more functionality, the ZMDI SSC Terminal software
can be used. This is the lowest level of communication for
transferring commands from the PC to the microcontroller
on the SSC CB. A full summary and detailed command
description of the applicable controller commands are
given in SSC Command Syntax.
Figure 3.17 “Send-Command” Dialog
SSC TermV202.exe can be installed from the SSC DVD, which will create a ZMDI SSC Terminal icon on the
PC desktop. Click on this icon to activate the terminal program. For the ZSSC3170 communication mode,
use the setting explained for I²C and LIN.
The “Send Command” dialog includes the following buttons:
Sends a command to the SSC CB. Alternatively, a *.370x_cmd command file can be loaded.
Reads the output data buffer of the ZSSC3170. A loop delay can also be added between the
readings.
Performs the same function as the “Send” command except that the command field and the
data field are separated. The ZSSC3170 software generates the actual instruction to be sent to
the SSC CB.
Writes text entered in adjacent field to the log file. The checkboxes can be used to write various
data into the log file, such as status, commands, messages, etc.
For the communication between the SSC CB and the ZSSC3170, the ZSSC3170’s slave address and the
communication frequency can be selected from the drop-down menus on the right.
