To communicate with D-Scripts/Global D-Scripts, set the following script settings. If script settings are not designated, they cannot execute.
Script Settings in D-Script/Global D-Script
In [System Settings], click [Script].
Set the [Type] to [D-Script/Global D-Script].
There are two tabs for the script settings. The above example uses [Script1].
Set the [Port] to COM1 or COM2, and set the [Communication Settings] to match the Extended SIO.
When creating a communication program with more advanced functionality than the SIO port operation, it is recommended to use an [Extended Script]. See the following for examples on how to use extended scripts, 22.5 Communicating with Unsupported Peripheral Devices.
