Command Reference

The reference documentation covers all the commands and properties associated with the EtherCAT module in the softMC. Each description contains sufficient information required to use the command or property correctly. All commands and properties contain the following items:

  • Description
  • Input
  • Output
  • Return Value
  • Declaration
  • Syntax
  • Availability
  • Type
  • Range
  • Units
  • Default
  • Scope
  • Limitations
  • Example
  • See Also

The syntax and related properties and variables are shown for each command. Examples are also shown to illustrate the use of the functions and subroutines. In describing the syntax of an instruction, a field to be filled by user is marked with < >.
For example, ABS ( <expression> ) indicates that <expression> is the user’s data.

Various versions of the firmware adds many new features, and in many instances, significantly changes the syntax or behavior of functions (commands, properties). Therefore, the attribute Availability is included in the format to denote the applicability of each function (command, property) to the specified version of the firmware. When parameter values imply dimensional units of measurement, these units are specified in the description of the command or property.
