3.6 PG 740 Connections (Point-To-Point Connections)
Point-to-Point In this section, you will learn how to connect your PG 740 to a programming
Connection device or programmable controller over a point-to-point connection.
You establish a point-to-point connection by connecting the PG 740 to
another programming device or a programmable controller via
3 S a V.24 connection
S a TTY connection
Suggestions for Reliable data transfer depends on several factors. The data transfer rate you
Configuring TTY can achieve depends on the distance, the type of cable, the type of interface
(20 mA) Interfaces and any interference present.
Rules You can reduce interference by choosing the right transmission cable and
connecting it properly, and observing the following guidelines.
S Use a shielded cable with a low line resistance (< 130 W / km) and low
capacitance (< 90 pF/m). Twisted-pair cables enhance immunity to noise
due to inductance. A low surge impedance results in reduced voltage
excursions and shorter charge reversal times. The surge impedance
decreases with increasing conductor cross-section for the same length of
cable.
S The shorter the transmission link, the higher the maximum possible data
transfer rate.
S If there is an active sender and an active receiver at the same end of the
transmission link, the sequence of access priority to the transmission
circuit must be taken into account in order to achieve the longest possible
transmission link.
S Signal lines and power lines must not be run together. Signal lines must
be installed as far away as possible from strong interference sources
(400 V three-phase power cables, for example).
S The active TTY interface with 12 V no-load voltage has been tested on a
1000 m (3300 ft.) long cable at a transmission rate of 9600 bps in a
normal noisy environment. If a shielded LiYCY 5x1x0.14 is used, reliable
transmission is possible over a distance of up to 1000 m (3300 ft.). The
AS511 protocol (only one transmitter at a time) was used for testing.
Note
The contaminating field of the interference source decreases exponentially
with the distance.

to carry out an autodetect for hard disks present in the system.
In the standard configuration of your PG, only one hard disk is entered as the
master at IDE adapter 0. [none] is entered as the type for the other drives.
Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to deviate from the
proposed hard disk parameters. In this case, select the corresponding menu
option and then the desired value using the [+] and [–] keys. Enter “none” in
the option “Type” if an IDE hard disk or an IDE CD-ROM is not connected,
or a number from 1 to 39 if a predefined type of hard disk is to be used.
Select “User” if you wish to define your own type of hard disk; you must

A cache is a fast intermediate memory located between the CPU and the
main memory (DRAM). Repeated memory access operations are executed in
the fast cache, and not in the main memory, provided the feature is enabled.
It may be necessary to disable the cache with certain hardware and software
because intentional program runtimes or delay times are prevented by the fast
cache.

7-2 C79000-G7076-C742-01
Memory decoding The Pentium CPU has a memory address area of 4 Gbytes. The CPU has a
function 64-bit wide data bus, 29 address lines (A3...A31) and 8 bus enable lines
(BD0...BE7) which code the non-existent byte address lines A0, A1 and A2.
The CPU address bus is mapped on the PCI address bus via the TSC (system
controller). Excluded from this are the memory addresses from 0000 0000h
to 0009 FFFFh (640 Kbytes) and from 0010 0000h to 07FF FFFFh (127
Mbytes).
The ISA bridge via the PIIX chip (PCI ISA IDE accelerator) maps the ISA
address bus exactly once on the PCI address bus. The ISA address bus for
8-bit modules covers the address area from A0 to A19, corresponding to the
CPU addresses 0000 0000h to 000F FFFFh (1 Mbytes). For 16-bit ISA
modules, the address bus is extended by the address lines A20...A23 and
therefore addresses from 0000 0000h to 00FF FFFFh (16 Mbytes). The
differentiation between the 1 Mbyte and 16 Mbyte ISA address areas is
achieved using special memory read/write signals which are only activated if
the address lines A20, A21, A22 and A23 have a level of logical “0”. If the
CPU addresses areas which are occupied by the main memory, no ISA bus
control signals are generated. This means that an ISA bus module is not
addressed in these memory areas. On the contrary, an ISA bus master cannot
reach addresses above 16 Mbytes. In order to achieve a larger address area
for dual-port RAM extensions than the memory address area between 7
640 Kbytes and 1 Mbyte, special decoder hardware is provided on the
Pentium programming device basic module:
S The CPU address area from FFF8 0000h to FFFD FFFFh (512k - 128k
BOIS = 384 Kbytes) is mapped into the ISA address area 00F8 0000h to
00FD FFFFh and is always addressed in the CPU address area. Decoding
of the address lines A24 to A31 missing on the ISA bus is achieved using
special hardware on the basic module.

*) Default; you can select IRQ 10, 11, 12 or 15, depending on the module.
Caution
! Malfunction!
You must not select IRQ 12 for the PG 740 since this interrupt is already
assigned to the trackball and/or PS/2 mouse.

7-6 C79000-G7076-C742-01
7.2 Interrupt Assignments
Interrupt The PG 740 uses two integral interrupt controllers of type 82C59 to handle
Assignment the 16 hardware interrupts (IRQ 0 to IRQ 15).
The INT output of the slave controller is connected to the IRQ 2 input of the
master controller. Interrupt 9 (IRQ 9) can be used on the bus for the assigned
interrupt 2 (IRQ 2). In the initialization phase, IRQ is programmed for the
software interrupt vector 0A H (IRQ 2) by the ROM-BIOS.
Priority The interrupts are priority-scheduled in the reverse order of their numbering.
Interrupt IRQ 0 has the highest priority and interrupt IRQ 7 the lowest. For
triggering IRQ 2, interrupt IRQ 8 has the highest priority and interrupt IRQ15
the lowest. Interrupts IRQ 8 to IRQ 15 therefore have priority over interrupts
IRQ 3 to IRQ 7. The interrupt vectors are initialized and masked when the
PG 740 is powered up.

operating system. Applications on your programming device are
MS-DOS/Windows, the STEP 5 Basic package, GRAPH 5 etc.
ASCII Editor With an ASCII editor you can process (that is, edit) text files which are
stored in ASCII code (American Standard Code of Information Interchange).
Base Memory The base memory is a part of the main memory. It is 640 KB for all
programming devices. The size is entered in the SETUP menu under the
entry “Base Memory” and is not changed even if the memory is extended.
Bps The speed (in bits per second) with which information is transmitted over a
data link.
BIOS BASIC Input Output System
Boot Diskette A diskette which includes a boot sector, enabling it to load the operating
system.
Booting A loading operation which transfers the operating system to the main
memory.
Cache Fast intermediate memory.
Click Pressing and immediately releasing the left mouse button; this selects objects
or trigger commands.
COM1 Port The COM1 port is a serial V.24/modem interface. This interface is suitable
for asynchronous data transmission. It can also be used to connect printers
with a serial interface.

Glossary-2 C79000-G7076-C742-01
Glossary
COM2 Port The COM2 port is a serial V.24 interface which can be used to connect a
mouse or a printer.
Configuration These are files which define the configuration after booting. Examples of
Files such files are CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Configuration The configuration software brings the device configuration up to date when
Software modules are installed. This is done either by copying the configuration files
supplied with the module or by manual configuration using the configuration
utility.
Cursor Collective term for mouse pointer and text cursor.
Cursor Control Keypad on the keyboard for controlling the cursor.
Device The configuration of a programming device contains information on the

Configuration hardware and options of the device, such as memory configuration, drive
types, monitor, network address etc. The data are stored in a configuration
file and enable the operating system to load the correct device drivers and
assign the correct device parameters.
If changes are made to the hardware configuration, the user can change
entries in the configuration file using the SETUP program.
Diskette The diskette (floppy disk) is an external direct access memory on which all
types of files and programs can be stored. The storage medium is a round
magnetic disk in a plastic cover to protect it from getting scratched.
Diskette Drive The diskette drive (floppy disk drive) is used to store programs and data on
diskette (write access) or to load from diskette to the computer (read access).
Display The monitor of the PG 740.
Double-Click Pressing and releasing the left mouse button very quickly twice in succession
without moving the mouse. This action is normally to open an object or
program.
Drives The PG 740 programming devices are usually equipped with one hard disk
drive and one diskette drive.

C79000-G7076-C742-01 Glossary-3
Glossary
Drivers These are programs which are part of the operating system. They adapt the
data from user programs to the specific formats required by the I/O devices
such as hard disk, printers and monitors.
Drop-Down Menu In graphics-supported programs, a menu line is positioned on the top edge of
the screen. The menu titles contained in this line can be set either as
drop-down or pull-down menus. Drop-down menus “roll” down as soon as
the mouse pointer passes over a menu title. Pull-down menus only “roll”
down when the menu title is clicked on. Different functions can then be
called from these menus by moving the mouse and clicking on an item in a
menu.
EPROM/ These are plug-in submodules with EPROM/EEPROM chips. S5 user

EEPROM programs can be stored on them. These programmed submodules are then
Submodules plugged in specially designed receptacles in the programmable controller.
Extended Memory A memory extension can be installed in a programming device to increase

the size of the memory.
File A file is the collection of data under one name.
Formatting Formatting divides the memory area on a magnetic data medium into tracks
and sectors. Formatting deletes all the data on a data medium. Every data
medium must be formatted before it is used for the first time.
Function Keys Function keys can be divided into two different types; the normal function
keys which are assigned a particular function of the computer (for example,
delete key), and programmable function keys (softkeys).
Hard Copy The output of the complete contents of the screen on a printer is called a hard
copy.
Hard Disk Drive Hard disk drives (Winchester drives) are a form of magnetic disk memory
where the magnetic disks are permanently built into the drive.
