WX2 and WY4 Relationships
The following illustrates the relationship between the first four bits in WX2 and WY4. This
relationship applies to the other three sets of bits.
Word Bit 1 Bit 2 Bit 3 Bit 4
WX2 CMD Err PLC Err CMD Busy Abort Busy
WY4 ERR Ack CMD Mode CMD Trigger Abort Trigger
Error Processing Bits
The module will set CMD E
RR
any time an error occurs in processing a command. The module will
also set PLC E
RR
if a valid Command Block cannot be read from V memory. After setting the error
bits, the module will halt processing on this command. The PLC acknowledges the error by setting
ERR
A
CK
. When the module sees E
RR
A
CK
go high, it aborts the command, clears the error bits, and
is ready to accept another command trigger for this slot.
Command Processing Bits
The PLC sets the CMD M
ODE
bit to select whether Coupled Mode or Uncoupled Mode is used. The
PLC sets the CMD T
RIGGER
to initiate the command. When the module begins command processing,
it sets the CMD B
USY
bit. The CMD B
USY
bit will remain on until the module has competed
processing the command.
Abort Processing Bits
The PLC can set the ABORT T
RIGGER
to request the module to abort a command that is in process.
When the module starts the process of aborting a command, it raises the A
BORT
B
USY
bit. When the
process is complete, it lowers A
BORT
B
USY
(and also CMD B
USY
).
The timing diagrams in this appendix describe the interaction of the various Command Control and
Command Status bits.
