Table 13- 38 Data types for the parameters
REQ IN Bool Activate the configuration change on the rising edge of this input.
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 sym-
bolic name is assigned in the "System constants" tab of the PLC tag
table. (Default value: 0)
Indicates that new data is ready.
ERROR OUT Bool TRUE for one scan, after the last request was completed with an
Execution condition code (Default value: 0)
MODBUS CRC generation and checking
Diagnostic alarm generation
Diagnostics for missing supply voltage L+ is available
*Get_Features returns TRUE (1) if the feature is available, FALSE (0) if the feature is not available

Set_Features enables the ad-
vanced features that a module
supports.

STEP 7 automatically creates the DB when you insert the instruction.
Use the Set_Features instruction to read the advanced feature capabilites of a module.
