Type Number Addresses Comments
Flags (1 bit) 16,384 F 0… 16,383 Flags are not volatile as a
presetting but users can congure
a volatile region originating from
address 0
Register (32 bit) 16,384 R 0… 16,383 For integer and oating point
values
Text/data blocks 8191 X or
DB 0… 8190
For Text and DB
Timer/counter (31 bit) 1600
1)
T/C 0… 1599 The breakdown of timers and
counters can be congured.
Timers are counted down
periodically by the operating
system; the basic time unit can
be set between 10 ms and 10
seconds
Constants with media code K Any 0… 16,383 These values can be used in
instructions instead of registers
Constants without media code Any - 2,147,483,648 to
+ 2,147,483,647
Can only be loaded with a LD
command in a register and cannot
be used in instructions instead of
registers.
1)
The number of congured timers should not be greater than required to prevent unnecessary
CPU loads
