Turbo PMAC/PMAC2 Software Reference

Turbo PMAC On-line Command Specification 363

See Also:

On-line commands MACROAUXREAD, MACROAUXWRITE

PLC Program commands MACROAUXREAD, MACROAUXWRITE

MACROAUXREAD

Function: Read (copy) variable value from Turbo PMAC MACRO slave

Scope: Global

Syntax: MACROAUXREAD{node #},M{slave var},{variable}

MXR{node #},M{slave var},{variable}

where:

 {node #} is a constant in the range 0 to 63 representing the number of the node on the Turbo

PMAC matching the slave node to be accessed, where the node number specification is:

o {node #} = 0 – 15 specifies MACRO IC 0 nodes 0 – 15, which correspond to slave

nodes 0 – 15 of the same master number as MACRO IC 0;

o {node #} = 16 – 31 specifies MACRO IC 1 nodes 0 – 15, which correspond to slave

nodes 0 – 15 of the same master number as MACRO IC 1;

o {node #} = 32 – 47 specifies MACRO IC 2 nodes 0 – 15, which correspond to slave

nodes 0 – 15 of the same master number as MACRO IC 2;

o {node #} = 48 – 63 specifies MACRO IC 3 nodes 0 – 15, which correspond to slave

nodes 0 – 15 of the same master number as MACRO IC 3;

 {slave var} is the name of the variable of the Turbo PMAC acting as a MACRO slave to this

Turbo PMAC. It can be an I, P, Q, or M-variable with a number from 0 to 8191.

 {variable} is the name of the variable on this Turbo PMAC. It can be an I, P, Q, or M-

variable with a number from 0 to 4095.

This command causes Turbo PMAC to copy the value of the specified variable of the Turbo PMAC

acting as a MACRO slave station matching the specified node number on the Turbo PMAC to the

specified variable on this Turbo PMAC.

If the slave node returns an error message or the slave node does not respond within the number of servo

cycles set by I78, Turbo PMAC will report ERR008. Bit 5 of global status register X:$000006 is set to

report such a MACRO auxiliary communications error. Register X:$00320E holds the error value. It is set

to $010000 for a timeout error, or $xxxxFE if the slave node reports an error, where xxxx is the 16-bit

error code reported by the slave node.

If this command is issued to a Turbo PMAC when a program buffer is open, it will be entered as a

program line into that buffer.

Examples:

MXR0,MP8191,P10 ; Copy slave P8191 into P10 here

MXR1,MM162,P4095 ; Copy slave MM162 into P4095

MACROAUXWRITE

Function: Write (copy) variable value to Turbo PMAC MACRO slave

Scope: Global

Syntax: MACROAUXWRITE{node #},M{slave var},{variable}

MXW{node #},M{slave var},{variable}
