MC-Basic:axis.RTCB1 MODE

In SERCOS, a realtime control bit is set to activate a function by writing the IDN of that function to IDN 301. This property encapsulates that operation by enabling you to specify (<value>) of the IDN number of the function to be activated. This is useful for CAPTURE, for example, where IDN 405 is used to arm the capture. Refer to the example below.

Syntax

<axis>.RTCB1_Mode = <value>

Availability

Type

Range

Any IDN that can be activated using this mechanism.

Scope

Configuration, Task or Terminal

Limitations

Can only be set during SERCOS communications phase 4.

Examples
