Configuring OEM texts
Machine manufacturers can display their own texts in the program directory and program name
lines. These texts cannot include % parameters as is possible in user texts. The lines are
divided into <OEM_NUMBER_TEXTFIELD> areas according to the entry in HEADER.INI.
The data is provided in a user data block. The number of the data block and the exact offset
are declared in the HEADER.INI file. The following entries are available in the [OEMTextInfo]
section for this purpose:
[OEMTextInfo]
OEM_NUMBER_TEXTFIELD = 1 ; maximum of 3 text fields per line
OEM_TEXT_BASE = DBx.DBBy
The interface in the user DB has the following format:
Start-DBB byte
or
Start-DBB +18 byte
Bit0=1: there is something to do
All bits=1: job is acknowledged by HMI
All bits=0: PLC can write to interface again.
Start-DBB +1 word
or
Start-DBB +19 word
Offset for text from alpu_xx.com to be displayed;
700 000 is the base address and is always summed internally.
All bits=0: Delete line
Start-DBB + 3 string
or
Start DBB+20 double Word
String containing a maximum of 12 characters
The first parameter contains an offset for a text number with a base of 700,000 (user PLC
texts). If this parameter = 0, the corresponding line is deleted. The second parameter contains
a maximum 12-character string. Unless empty, this text is output instead of the user PLC text.
The parameters must be written from "back to front" in the PLC, i.e. all parameters must be
initialized before the first byte is set. The data for the next line is located exactly 18 bytes after
the start byte. The lines are output from left to right; a maximum of three output fields per line
are provided (i.e. a total of six fields are possible).
A hotlink to the first byte for each line is set up in the operating software. If a change occurs
in that byte, the operating software responds. If the operating software displayed the data, it
writes a -1 to the first variable. The operating software is informed about this change by means
of the hotlink, whereupon it writes a 0 to this variable.
The HMI itself does not have to react to this change. The PLC can only write data to the
interface again if the variable is set to 0. This mechanism ensures that the operating software
knows about all parameter changes.
