and it is important to have new feedback values every servo cycle. Therefore an ACC-36
with Option 1 is ordered, so there are 2 ADCs per register, and I61 is set to 3 to convert
the first 4 registers in a cyclic fashion. ADCs 1 to 4 are copied into Y:$0708 to Y:$070B,
respectively; ADCs 9 to 12 are copied into X:$0708 to X:$070B, respectively.

I62 Internal Message Carriage Return Control
Range
0 .. 1
Units
none
Default
0
Remarks
I62 permits the user to control whether internally generated messages sent from PMAC to
the host computer are terminated with the carriage return (<CR>) character or not. It
affects only those messages generated by a CMD, SEND, SENDP, or SENDS statement in a
PMAC motion or PLC program. The ability to suppress the <CR> provides more
flexibility in controlling the format display of a terminal window or printer.
If I62 is set to the default value of 0, these messages are terminated with a <CR>. If I62 is
set to 1, the <CR> is suppressed. With I62 set to 1, if it desired for a PMAC program to
cause a <CR> to be sent, the SEND^M command must be used (the carriage return
character is <CTRL-M>).
Note:
Do not set I62 to1 if using dual-ported RAM ASCII
communications (I58=1).
Example
With program code:
I62=1.............. ; Suppress <CR> on SEND
SEND “THE VALUE OF P1 IS “ ; String sent with no <CR>
CMD “P1” ...... ; Response string follows on same line, no <CR>
SEND^M ........... ; Send a <CR>
PMAC responds with:
THE VALUE OF P1 IS 42

I63 Control-X Echo Enable
Range
0 .. 1
Units
None
Default
0
Remarks
I63 permits the PMAC to echo the <CONTROL-X> character back to the host computer
when it is received. If I63 is set to 1, PMAC will send a <CONTROL-X> character (ASCII
value 24 decimal) back to the host computer when it receives a <CONTROL-X> character.
If I63 is set to 0, PMAC will send nothing back to the host computer when it receives a
<CONTROL-X> character. This is equivalent to the action of older versions of PMAC
firmware without an I63 variable.
