• R11: Signal channels
Related to R10, this contains the number of channels that are logically present. Thus for example a
shift register that is physically present can perfectly well consist of several signal channels.
• R12: Minimum data length
The particular byte contains the minimum data length for a channel that is to be transferred. If the MSB
is set, the control and status byte is not necessarily required for the terminal function and is not
transferred to the control, if the Bus Coupler is configured accordingly.
• R13: Data type register
Data type register Meaning
0x00 Terminal with no valid data type
0x01 Byte array
0x02 Structure 1 byte n bytes
0x03 Word array
0x04 Structure 1 byte n words
0x05 Double word array
0x06 Structure 1 byte n double words
0x07 Structure 1 byte 1 double word
0x08 Structure 1 byte 1 double word
0x11 Byte array with variable logical channel length
0x12 Structure 1 byte n bytes with variable logical channel length (e.g. 60xx)
0x13 Word array with variable logical channel length
0x14 Structure 1 byte n words with variable logical channel length
0x15 Double word array with variable logical channel length
0x16 Structure 1 byte n double words with variable logical channel length
• R14: reserved
• R15: Alignment bits (RAM)
The alignment bits are used to place the analog terminal in the Bus Coupler on a byte boundary.
R16 to R30: Manufacturer parameter area (SEEROM)
The manufacturer parameters are specific for each type of terminal. They are programmed by the
manufacturer, but can also be modified by the controller. The manufacturer parameters are stored in a serial
EEPROM in the terminal, and are retained in the event of voltage drop-out.
These registers can only be altered after a code word has been set in R31 [ } 31] .
• R17 to R30: not used
R31 to R47: User parameter area (SEEROM)
The user parameters are specific for each type of terminal. They can be modified by the programmer. The
user parameters are stored in a serial EEPROM in the terminal, and are retained in the event of voltage
drop-out. The user area is write-protected by a code word.
• R31: Code word register in RAM
The code word 0x1235 must be entered here so that parameters in the user area can be modified.
If any other value is entered into this register, the write-protection is active. When write protection is
not active, the code word is returned when the register is read. If the write protection is active, the
register contains a zero value.
• R32: Feature register
This register specifies the operation modes of the terminal. Thus, for instance, a user-specific scaling
can be enabled for the analog I/Os.
This register describes the hardware settings for channels 1-4 [0x0062]
The default values are shown in square brackets.
