When the data area read command “%01#RDD00000 00001** C
R
” is sent from the FP2
side, the values of the data register of the PLC connected to the system are sent as a
response. For example, if the value K100 is stored in DT0 and the value K200 is stored
in DT1 of the PLC, “%01$RD6400C800F1C
R
” is sent as a response to the command.
If there is an error, “%01! OO ** C
R
” is returned (OO is the error code).
In addition to data area read and write commands, the MEWTOCOL−COM is also
provided with contact area reading and writing, and many other commands.
