Functions by
BASIC programs
Sub-CPU
Function
Complex numerical and functional calculations which would
lengthen the programmable controller CPU's scan time can be
done by a BASIC program.
• Collection, analysis and correction of measurement data
• Function calculations such as Sin, Log and square roots, etc.
The BASIC program of the
AD51-S3 is incompatible with
that of the QD51/QD51-R24.
Analyze the existing program
to create a program with
AD51H-BASIC.
Monitor Display
Function
This displays the operating status (production conditions, running
status, breakdown, etc.) on a console or terminal connected to the
module.
Key Input
Function
This allows input of production schedules, production quantity,
operations, setting data, etc. from the keyboard of a console or
terminal connected to the module.
Printer Function
This prints out production plans, results, daily reports, breakdown,
planning data, inspection results, test results charts, etc. with a
printer connected to the module.
Data Input
Function
This enables input of data from a bar code reader, a magnetic card
reader, etc. that is connected to the module. (Since transmission is
available in a free format through a BASIC program, it will suit any
protocol of the opposite device.)
• Input of production lot No., product name, quantity, etc.
• Collection of measured values, test data
External Device
Connection
Function
This allows connection to a computer to the RS-232C or RS-422/
485 interface and sends and receives data through a BASIC
program.
Clock Function
This writes and reads clock data (year, month, day, hour, minute,
second, day of week)of a programmable controller CPU with the
clock function.
Online Programming Function
This creates, executes and corrects BASIC programs through
system commands by connecting a console to the module.
It also writes and reads execution programs to a Flash ROM by
system commands.
Multitask Debugging Function -
This multitask function allows
debugging while running BASIC
programs by connecting a
console and a debugger to the
module.
