(a) Macro variable input
· When the data input/output function based on the I/O Link
is used
With Power Mate DI signals EDG00 to EDG15, specify a
start number for the macro variables to be read. With
EDN00 to EDN15, specify the number of macro variables
to be read.
In step 4) of program input (described in (1).(a)), specify a
program number for the Power Mate macro variables. The
other steps are the same as those for program input.
· When data input/output function B based on the I/O Link is
used
With Power Mate DI signals EDG00 to EDG15, specify a
start number for the macro variables to be read. With
EDN00 to EDN15, specify the number of macro variables
to be read.
In step 1) of program input (described in (1).(a)), specify a
program number for Power Mate macro variables. The
remaining steps are the same as those for program input.
(b) Macro variable output
· When the data input/output function based on the I/O Link
is used
In step 5) of program output (described in (1).(b)), specify
a program number for a Power Mate macro variable. The
other steps are the same as those for program output.
· When data input/output function B based on the I/O Link is
used
In step 1) of program output (described in (1).(b)), specify
a program number for a Power Mate macro variable. The
remaining steps are the same as those for program output.
NOTE
The setting parameter or bit 1 (ISO) of parameter No. 0000
must be set to 1 to enable the use of the ISO code for macro
variable output. When a macro variable is output in EIA
code, the Power Mate issues alarm 001, while the Series
16i/18i/21i issues alarm 86.
(4) Diagnostic (PMC) data input/output
In the same way as the parameters and macro variables, a Power Mate
diagnostic data item in tape format is stored as a master–side NC
program in a program memory area. The following program number
is assigned to a Power Mate diagnostic data item of group n: (Value
set in parameter No. 8760) + n 10 + 2
