Limitations D and D+2 must be in the same data area.
Overview When
the execution condition is OFF
, HKY(––) is not executed. When the exe
-
cution condition is ON, HKY(––) inputs data from a hexadecimal keypad con-
nected to the input indicated by IW. The data is input in two ways:
1, 2, 3... 1. An
8-digit shift register is created in D and D+1. When a key is pressed on
the
hexadecimal keypad, the corresponding hexadecimal digit is shifted into
the
least significant digit of D. The other digits of D, D+1 are shifted left and
the most significant digit of D+1 is lost.
2. The
bits of
D+2 and bit 4 of OW indicate key input. When one of the keys on
the
keypad (0 to F) is being pressed, the corresponding bit in D+2 (00 to 15)
and bit 4 of OW are turned ON.
Note 1. When
one of the keypad keys is being pressed, input from the other keys is
disabled.
2. Input
and output bits not used here can be used as ordinary input and output
bits.
With
this instruction, one key input is read in 4
to 13 cycles. More than one cycle
is required because the ON keys can only be determined as the outputs are
turned ON to test them.
The hexadecimal key input device must be connectable in a 4 x 4 matrix.
Precautions I/O
refreshing must be performed for all I/O points used by HKY(––)
each time it
is executed to ensure effective operation. The I/O REFRESH instruction must
thus
be used with HKY(––) whenever HKY(––) is used in a subroutine to ensure
that
the I/O points are refreshed each execution. Refer to page
315 for an exam
-
ple of this type of programming.
HKY(––) will be executed from the first cycle whenever program execution is
started, including restarts made after power interruptions.
Do not use HKY(––) more than once in the program.
HKY(––) cannot be used for I/O Units mounted to Slave Racks.
