CALL PLCWRITE Statement
Purpose:
This command is used to write value(s) to a PLC’s register(s), memory
location(s), or to force one or more output bits in a PLC. Refer to the -PL5
and -SL5 for information on how to use this command with the
Allen-Bradley PLC-5 and SLC-500 processors.
Syntax:
CALL PLCWRITE(id,cmd,start address,# of
registers/bits,expression/variable/array )
Comments:
id
specifies the address of the PLC to which you wish to write. This number
is usually 1 when interfacing to one PLC.
cmd specifies the write operation you wish to perform. See the table below
for the write operation possibilities:
start address is the starting address of the bit(s) or register(s) you are
interested in writing. In the case of the Modbus, this does not include a data
type specifier (%, $, !, etc.)
