USS_RPM (Readout parameters from the drive) instruction
Table 13- 124 USS_RPM instruction
DRIVE:=_usint_in_,
PARAM:=_uint_in_,
INDEX:=_uint_in_,
DONE=>_bool_out_,
ERROR=>_bool_out_,
STATUS=>_word_out_,
VALUE=>_variant_out_,
The USS_RPM instruction reads a parameter from
a drive. All USS functions associated with one USS
network and PtP communication port must use the
same data block. USS_RPM must be called from a
main program cycle OB.
Table 13- 125 Data types for the parameters
REQ IN Bool Send request: When true, REQ indicates that a new read request is de-
sired. This is ignored if the request for this parameter is already pending.
DRIVE IN USInt Drive address: DRIVE is the address of the USS drive. The valid range is
PARAM IN UInt Parameter number: PARAM designates which drive parameter is written.
The range of this parameter is 0 to 2047. On some drives, the most signif-
icant byte can access PARAM values greater than 2047. See your drive
manual for details on how to access an extended range.
INDEX IN UInt
Parameter index: INDEX designates which Drive Parameter index is to be
written. A 16-bit value where the Least Significant Byte is the actual index
value with a range of (0 to 255). The Most Significant Byte may also be
used by the drive and is drive-specific. See your drive manual for details.
USS_DB INOUT USS_BASE The name of the instance DB that is created and initialized when a
USS_DRV instruction is placed in your program.
VALUE IN Word, Int, UInt,
DWord, DInt,
This is the value of the parameter that was read and is valid only when
the DONE bit is true.
DONE
1
OUT Bool When true, indicates that the VALUE output holds the previously request-
ed read parameter value. This bit is set when USS_DRV sees the read
response data from the drive. This bit is reset when either: you request
the response data via another USS_RPM poll, or on the second of the
next two calls to USS_DRV
