Checking Operations for CS-series, C200HX/C200HG/C200HE-(Z)E, and C200HS Master Units
Section 6-2
Status Flag Functions
The status flags have the following functions. These flags are automatically
cleared to 0 when the power is turned ON or the system is restarted.
Active Output Slave Flags
These flags indicate whether the corresponding Output Slaves are active
nodes in the CompoBus/S communications.
Active Input Slave Flags
These flags indicate whether the corresponding Input Slaves are active nodes
in the CompoBus/S communications.
Output Slave Communications Error Flags
These flags indicate whether a communications error has occurred with the
corresponding Output Slaves.
Input Slave Communications Error Flags
These flags indicate whether a communications error has occurred with the
corresponding Input Slaves.
Note
Input from Input Slaves and output to Output Slaves are enabled when the
CompoBus/S System is started up and the Active Node Flag corresponding to
the Slave turns ON. During actual operation, it is recommended to create lad-
der programming that processes Slave I/O after checking that Active Node
Flags are ON and Communications Error Flags are OFF.

Flag status
Meaning
0 (OFF)
The corresponding Slave is not participating in communications.
(OFF if the Slave didn’t participate even one time.)
1 (ON)
The corresponding Slave is participating in communications.
(Not changed even if the Slave is withdrawn from communications.)
Flag status
Meaning
0 (OFF)
The corresponding Slave is not participating in communications.
(OFF if the Slave didn’t participate even one time.)
1 (ON)
The corresponding Slave is participating in communications.
(Not changed even if the Slave is withdrawn from communications.)
Flag status
Meaning
0 (OFF)
Normal communications or the Slave is not participating in communi-
cations.
1 (ON)
Withdrawn from communications (communications error)
Flag status
Meaning
0 (OFF)
Normal communications or the Slave is not participating in communi-
cations.
1 (ON)
