Edition 12.2003
3.18.4.4 Configuring the function blocks
For the "automatic mode, memory card" mode, only the TAB and/or
TAB_D function blocks must be configured, depending as to whether
table values, REAL data type and/or DINT data type have to be
managed. Each table may only contain values of one data type. If several
tables are to manage various data types, then a TAB or TAB_D should
be configured for each table.
The TAB and TAB_D function blocks should be configured in a sampling
time greater than or equal to 32ms. The following connection settings are
required:
CTS= 0
US = Not assigned
NAM =
Name of the table file (with file name extension which was defined
when "saving", e.g. MS Excel)
AUT = 1 (automatic mode activated)
The configuring is shown in the following diagram:
Fig. 3-96 Configuring the TAB function block
The table function blocks for 2 tables are shown in the following diagram.
The table values, which are now managed by the function blocks, can
now also be used by additional function blocks, e.g. FB TABCAM.
