Appendix A: System Data Types
The Vision OPLC operating system – user program interface includes System Bits (SB),
System Integers (SI), System Long Integers (SL), and System Double Words (SDW) listed in
the tables below. Specific data types are linked to fixed parameters and are read-only by the
user program, such as SB 2 Power-up bit.
You may write into certain data types. These are marked with an asterisk (*), such as
SI 8 Unit ID. All SBs, SIs, SLs, and SDWs not listed are reserved for use by the system.
To obtain a complete, updated list of system operands, refer to the VisiLogic software.
