PMAC 2 Software Reference
PMAC On-Line Command Specification 167
<CONTROL-C>
Function
Report all coordinate system status words
Scope
Global
Syntax
ASCII Value 3D, $03
Remarks
This command causes PMAC to report the status words for all of the coordinate systems to
the host in hexadecimal ASCII form, 12 characters per coordinate system starting with
coordinate system 1, with the characters for each coordinate system separated by spaces. The
characters reported for each coordinate system are the same as if the ?? command had been
issued for that coordinate system.
The detailed meanings of the individual status bits are shown under the ?? command
description.
For multiple cards on a single serial daisy-chain, this command affects only the card
currently addressed in software (by the @n command).
Example
<CTRL-C>
A80020020000 A80020020000 A80020020000 A80020020000 A80020000000
A80020000000 A80020000000 A80020000000<CR>

On-line commands <CTRL-B>, <CTRL-G>, ??;
Memory-map registers Y:$0817, Y:$08D7, etc., X:$0818, X:$08D8, etc.;
Suggested M-variable definitions Mx80-Mx90.
<CONTROL-D>
Function
Disable all PLC programs.
Scope
Global
Syntax
ASCII Value 4D; $04
Remarks
This command causes all PLC programs to be disabled (i.e. stop executing). This is the
equivalent of DISABLE PLC 0..31 and DISABLE PLCC 0..31. It is especially
useful if a CMD or SEND statement in a PLC has run amok.
For multiple cards on a single serial daisy-chain, this command affects all cards on the chain,
regardless of the current software addressing.
Example
TRIGGER FOUND
TRIGTRIGER FOTRIGGER FOUND
TRTRIGTRIGGER FOUND (Out-of-control SEND message from PLC)
<CTRL-D> ........ (Command to disable the PLCs)
(No more messages; can now edit PLC)
