11.2 Technical Description
With the aid of the KS-functions, all PLC data can be accessed in read and write-
mode as well as in bit, byte, word and double word-mode. The size of the address
area depends on the respective PLC and its configuration.
11.3 Protocol Parameters AEG-KS
The operating terminal adapts to the default parameters of the interface. It is there-
fore
not necessary to modify the interface parameters in the PLC.
To ensure proper communication, the parameters must
not be altered.
Baud rate: 9600 Baud
Parity: even
Data bits: 8
Stopbits: 1
Handshake: no handshake
11.4 Data Type Structure
a) Alphanumerical Texts
Are stored in the memory byte for byte in ascending address order.
b) Counter
The count value is interpreted in the binary format. The maximum value is one
word.
c) Timer
The time value is interpreted in the binary format. The maximum value is one word.
d) Binary Variables with a Length of 1, 2 or 4 Bytes
Data with a length of 2 bytes are interpreted in the PLC-conformal byte order for
words.
Data with a length of 4 bytes are interpreted in the PLC-conformal byte order for
double words.
e) Floating Point Numbers
Floating point numbers are interpreted in the IEEE floating point format.
