Module Functions
(Original Document)
At a Glance
The TSX CSY 84/164 modules have 5 types of application specific functions:
NOTE: Control Expert accepts the MOD_PARAM function when used with the TSX CSY 84 but it is not operational. Hence, the MOD_PARAM function is not available for the TSX CSY 84 module but only for the TSX CSY 164 module.
Command Exchange
For each of the application-specific functions (SERCOS® ring, individual axis, co-ordinated group, slave group and Cam profile), exchanges are made at the rate of 1 command per channel for every 2 scans of the MAST PLC task.
The following 32 command bits enable commands to be authorized and confirmed:
Optimization of Performance
The implicit exchanges (%I, %Q) are installed for all channels, on each cycle of the MAST task. In order to optimize performance, it is recommended when possible to privilege the implicit exchanges (%Q), in relation to the explicit exchanges (WRITE _CMD).
Important
The TSX CSY 84 module must be configured in MAST task.
Graphical Representation of Exchanges
Exchanges of a WRITE_CMD command are made according to the following principle:
(1) 32 registers (1 per channel)
(2) 16 registers of 32 commands (8 real, 4 imaginary, 4 co-ordinated axis groups)
