Siemens Siwarex U - Table 9-1 Content of the Status Byte; Table 9-2 Byte for Task Controlling

8BCOMMUNICATION WITH OTHER SYSTEMS
Status is the same as bit 6 in Task Controlling (output byte 3 for channel 1 or
output byte 11 for channel 2), then SIWAREX U has synchronized the live bit.
In Task Controlling, the live bit must now be inverted. SIWAREX U will in turn set
the same status for the live bit in Status.
If this does not occur within a certain period, the component/communication has
failed. The period at the end of which a component is deemed to have failed can
be specified using the user program.
Bit_no. Name Range of values/Meaning
0 Operational fault 1 = an operational fault exists
1 Data, operator errors 1 = during the last action, a data or operator error occurred.
2 Limit value 1 active 1 = limit value 1 is activated
3 Limit value 2 active 1 = limit value 2 is activated
4 Adjusted 1 = scale is already adjusted
5 Measured value toggle bit Measured value toggle bit is inverted with each new measured value (every 20 ms).
6 Live bit The live bit is specified by the user in the output area and is synchronized in the
input area (I/O communication only).
7 Instruction
acknowledgement
The instruction bit is inverted after the execution of an instruction (I/O
communication only).
Table 9-1 Content of the status byte
Bit 7 in the status byte (input byte 1 for channel 1 and input byte 9 for channel 2) is
used to process the writing to SIWAREX U together with the instruction bit of the byte
for task controlling (output byte 3 for channel 1 and output byte 11 for channel 2).
Bit_no. Name Range of values/Meaning
0-5 Reserve
6 Live bit The live bit is specified by the user in the output area and is synchronized in
the input area (I/O communication only).
7 Instruction bit The user must check the instruction bit for consistency in the input area. A new
instruction is executed when this bit is changed and the bit "Instruction
acknowledgement" follows this change in the input area
(I/O communication only).
