    My Motion Simulator:
    3DOF
    I am trying to build up my own 3dof simulator by using PLC. However, there are 2 quesitons confuse me and ask your support:
    1. Normally, to communicate with PLC, it is naccessary to using Communication Protocol. e.g. modbus etc.
    So what Communication Protocol does Simtools V3 exactly used for communication?
    2. I read the broucher of Simtools V3 about interface output. If I just use the type<axis1a><axis2a><axis3a><axis4a>, does is means I will receive four numbers among 0-255. Or I will receive 4 char type string?

    Please help me if you know about above two questions.
