Chapter 6 High-speed Link Service

(4) Operation mode (_HSxMODE[0..127] where x is High-speed link No.(1~12))
As individual information it shows the operation status of High-speed link parameters on the
register list up to 128 registered items’ operation mode information just like the max. register
number. If the station specified in the register item is in Run mode, the applicable bit will be
turned On, and if in Stop/Pause/Debug mode, it will be turned Off.
(5) Error (_HSxERR[0..127] where x is High-speed link No.(1~12))
As individual information it shows the operation status of High-speed link parameters on the
register list up to 128 registered items’ error information just like the max. register number. The
error displays the general status of the PLC which fails to execute the user program. If the
destination station PLC is normal, it will be turned Off, and if abnormal, it will be turned On.
(6) HS link status (_HSxSTATE[0..127] where x is High-speed link No.(1~12))
As individual information it shows the operation status of High-speed link parameters on the
register list up to 127 registered items’ High-speed link status just like the max. register number,
which synthesizes the information of the individual items to display the general information of the
registered items. In other words, if the applicable list’s Tx/Rx status is normal with the operation
mode of Run and with no error, it will be turned On, and if the conditions above are violated, it will
be turned Off.
6.5.2 Monitor of High-speed link information
High-speed link information can be checked through the variable monitor on the monitor menu when
XG5000 is online state, or through the XG5000 diagnosis service.
(1) Variable monitor
Variable monitor is a function to register the variables to be monitored and monitor the selected
variables. Select [View] - [Variable Monitor Window] to display the variable registration screen as
shown in [Fig. 6.5.1], and there select [Flag] directly to select and register High-speed link
information flag one by one on the screen of the variable flags list. At this time, since
_HSxSTATE[n], _HSxERR[n], _HSxMOD[n] and _HSxTRX[n] are the flags of array type, the
user needs directly to select the array numbers which stand for the register numbers inside the
parameters.
(2) High-speed link monitor from the XG5000 diagnosis services
A) It will be available through the menu [Connect] -> [Online] ->
[Communication module setting] -> [System Diagnosis] on XG5000.
