Macro Language In_Outputs

Valid for S300, S700

Digital Inputs and Outputs

If a digital input is used in a macro program it must not have a firmware function assigned:

INxMODE 0

If a digital output is used in a macro program it must have assigned the output function 23, "Slot-DPR":

OxMODE 23

The inputs and outputs will be addressed with INPUTx and OUTPUTx. Example:

IF INPUT3=1 THEN   // if digital input 3 is active
  OUTPUT1:=1; OUTPUT2:=0;  // switch output 1 on and output 2 off
END_IF;

Virtual Inputs

It is possible to assign standard I/O functions to the virtual inputs (input5...20 if no I/O option card is used) and change the inputs in a macro program. This way it is possible to use standard ready made functions with a macro program.

Inputs can be changed using th emacro SOFTIN. Bit 0 is for input 5, bit 6 for input 6 and so on.

In the following example virtual input 7 has been configured with function 16, "start motion task". With IN7TRIG = 0 the input 7 is used to start the reference move.

SOFTIN:=SOFTIN|0x04;    // set (virt.) Input7 to start reference move
SOFTIN:=SOFTIN&0xFFFFFFFB;    // set Input 7 back to 0 

Digital I/Os on the Expansion Card I/O -14/08

If an expansion card I/O14/08 is being used the additional I/Os can also be used in a macro program. To use them as general purpose I/Os set the according

INxMODE 0 and

OxMODE 23.

Macro names for the inputs and outputs can be seen in the following tables:

Input	X11A Pin	Makro
A0	1	INPUT11
A1	2	INPUT12
A2	3	INPUT13
A3	4	INPUT14
A4	5	INPUT15
A5	6	INPUT16
A6	7	INPUT17
A7	8	INPUT18
Reference	9	INPUT5
FError_clear	10	INPUT6
Start_MT Next	11	INPUT7
))Start_Jog(( v=x	12	INPUT8
MT_Restart	X11B Pin1	INPUT9
Start_MT No. x	Pin2	INPUT10

To read the inputs as byte use the byte macro variables SLOTX1 and SLOTX2.

Example:
TEMPVAR:=SLOTX2&0XFF;  //Read Inputs 11 to 18 into LONG variable TEMPVAR
TEMPVAR1:=SLOTX1&0X3F; //Read Inputs 5 to 10 into LONG variable TEMPVAR1 

 

Output (Default Function)	X11B Pin	Macro
InPos	3	OUTPUT3
Next-InPos	4	OUTPUT4
/SFAULT	5	OUTPUT5
Sw_limit 1	6	OUTPUT6
Sw_limit 2	7	OUTPUT7
PosReg3	8	OUTPUT8
PosReg4	9	OUTPUT9
PosReg5	10	OUTPUT10

Analog Inputs

Analog inputs are read using the macro variables ANIN1 and ANIN2.

Scaling: +/-10Volts = +/-8192 Increments

Example for conversion to millivolts:

LONG TEMPVAR1, MILLIVOLT;
LONG CONST10T:=10000;
LONG CONST13BIT:=8192;
TEMPVAR1:=ANIN1; // voltage in incr., conversion from word to double word
MULDIV(TEMPVAR1,CONST10T,CONST13BIT,MILLIVOLT); //MILLIVOLT=ANIN1*10000 / 8192
