Description
REQ IN Bool Activate the configuration change on the rising edge of this input.
(Default value: False)
PORT IN PORT After you install and configure a CM or CB communication device,
the port identifier appears in the parameter helper drop-list available
at the PORT box connection. The assigned CM or CB port value is
the device configuration property "hardware identifier". The port
symbolic name is assigned in the "System constants" tab of the PLC
tag table. (Default value: 0)
CONDITIONS IN CONDITIONS The Conditions data structure specifies the starting and ending
message conditions as described below.
DONE OUT Bool TRUE for one scan, after the last request was completed with no
error
ERROR OUT Bool TRUE for one scan, after the last request was completed with an
error
STATUS

Execution condition code (Default value: 0)
Start conditions for the RCV_PTP instruction
The RCV_PTP instruction uses the configuration specified by the RCV_CFG instruction to
determine the beginning and ending of point-to-point communication messages. The start of
a message is determined by the start conditions. The start of a message can be determined
by one or a combination of start conditions. If more than one start condition is specified, all
the conditions must be satisfied before the message is started.
See the topic "Configuring receive parameters (Page 676)" for a description of the message
start conditions.
