1.2 Software
_1 1.2.1 Program Editor
The section describes the program editor ISPSoft.
 There are four types of programming languages: structure text (ST), ladder diagram (LD), sequential function chart
(SFC), and continuous function chart (CFC).
NOTE: CFC programming is only available in ISPSoft version 3.01 or higher.
1-10
 User-defined variables allow you to define a variable to replace a PLC device name. This enhances the readability of
1_
the program, and saves time when addressing the device.
 The Program Organization Unit (POU) framework divides the main program into several program units, and also
replaces the traditional subroutines with functions and function blocks. The makes the framework of the program
modular and easier to manage.
 Tasks manage the execution order of the programs. Tasks help you manage large-scale program development.

1.2.2 Program Organization Units and Tasks

_1 The Program Organization Units (POUs) are the basic elements that constitute the PLC program. Unlike the traditional
PLC program, the program framework introduced by IEC 61131-3 allows you to divide a large program into several small
units. These small units are called POUs. The POUs can be classified into three types.
1. Program (PROG): The program POU is the main program in the PLC. You can define the execution of this POU t
to be cyclic scan or interrupt driven, and arrange the scan order in the task list for program POUs.
2. Function block (FB): The function block (FB) POU is similar to a subroutine. The instructions in the function block
are executed after a program POU calls the function block with the related parameters.
3. Function (FC): The function (FC) POU in similar to a macro instruction. That is, you can write many operation
instructions or functions into a function-type POU, and then use then in a program POU or a function block POU.
Tasks are functions that control the order of program execution or according to certain interrupt conditions. The task
provides each program POU with a specific execution task, and specifies the execution order for the program POUs or
the way to enable them.
Normally, only some of the program POUs in a project take part in the actual execution. The task controls whether to
execute the program POU or not, and how to execute it. If the POU of the program type is not assigned in the task, the
program POU is saved as ordinary source code with the project instead of being compiled into the execution code for the
PLC. In addition, only the program POU needs to be assigned to the task. Function block POUs or function POUs are
automatically called by the program POU. There are three types of tasks.
1. Cyclic task: The program POUs assigned to cyclic tasks are scanned cyclically, and executed in order.
2. Timed interrupt task: If the interrupt time is reached, all program POUs assigned to the timed interrupt task are
executed in order.
3. Conditional interrupt task: Conditional Interrupts can be divided into several types, such as external interrupts, and
I/O interrupts. You must make sure that the PLC supports the interrupts before you use conditional interrupts in a
project. If you assign a program POU to a conditional interrupt task, the program POU is similar to an interrupt
subroutine. When the interrupt condition is satisfied (for example, the contact of the external interrupt is triggered)
then all program POUs assigned to the conditional interrupt task are executed in order.

2.1 Introduction to Devices

This section describes the values and strings processed by the PLC. It also describes the functions of devices, including
input, output and auxiliary relays, as well as timers, counters, and data registers. The PLC simulates external devices in
the PLC’s internal memory, so the word “device” is a generic name that refers to all the internal memory locations in the
PLC. A device can be a bit device or a word device. Bit devices simulate coils, contacts and flags, while word devices
simulate registers.

The PLC uses four types of values to execute the operation according to different control purposes.
1. Binary number (BIN)
The PLC uses the binary system to operate on the values.
2. Decimal number (DEC)
The PLC uses decimal numbers for:

_2
 The setting value of a timer (T) or the setting value of a counter (C/HC); for example, TMR C0 50 (constant
K).
 The device number; for example, M10 and T30 (device number)
 The number before or after the decimal point; for example, X0.0, Y0.11, and D10.0 (device number).
 The constant K, used as the operand in an applied instruction. For example, MOV 123 D0 (constant K).
3. Binary-coded decimal (BCD)
A decimal value that is represented by a nibble or four bits so that sixteen consecutive bits represent a four-digit
decimal value.
4. Hexadecimal number (HEX)
The PLC uses hexadecimal numbers for:
 The constant 16#, used as the operand in an applied instruction; for example, MOV 16#1A2B D0
(hexadecimal constant).
The following table shows the corresponding values.

2.2.2 Floating-point Numbers

Floating-point numbers are represented by decimal points in ISPSoft. For example, the floating-point number 500 is
represented as 500.0.
2.2.2.1 Single-precision Floating-point Numbers

Floating-point numbers are represented by a 32-bit register. The representation adopts the IEEE754 standard, and the 2_
format shown in the following picture.
8 -b it 2 3- bi t
S E xpo ne nt Ma nti ssa
b 31 b0
S ig n b it
0 : Po siti ve
1 : Neg ati ve
Equation:
(− 1)S × 2 E − B × 1.M ; B = 127
The single-precision floating-point numbers range between ±2-126 to ±2+128, and correspond to the range between
±1.1755×10-38 to ±3.4028×10+38.
The AS Series PLC uses two consecutive registers for a 32-bit floating-point number. Take (D1, D0) for example.
D1 (b 15 ~b 0) D0 (b 15 ~b 0)
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

W hen b 0~ b3 1 a re z eros , t he c on te nt is z ero .
Example 1:
23 is represented by a single-precision floating-point number.

Step 1: Convert 23 into the binary number, 23.0=10111.
Step 2: Normalize the binary number, 10111=1.0111 ×24 (0111 is the mantissa, and 4 is the exponent.).
Step 3: Get the value of the exponent.
∵ E-B=4→E-127=4 ∴ E=131=100000112
Step 4: Combine the sign bit, the exponent, and the mantissa to form the floating-point number.
0 10000011 011100000000000000000002=41B8000016
2-7
Example 2:
-23 is represented by a single-precision floating-point number.
Converting -23.0 into the floating-point number uses the same steps as converting 23.0 into the floating-point number,
except that the sign bit is 1.
1 10000011 011100000000000000000002=C1B8000016
_2 2.2.2.2 Decimal Floating-point Numbers
 Single-precision floating-point numbers and double-precision floating-point numbers can be converted into decimal
floating-point numbers so people can read them. However, internally the PLC uses single-precision floating-point
numbers and double-precision floating-point numbers.
 A 32-bit decimal floating-point number is represented by two consecutive registers. The constant is stored in the
first register whose number is smaller while the exponent is stored in the register whose number is bigger. Take
(D1, D0) for example.
[Ex ponent D1]
D eci mal f lo ati ng -po in t nu mb er=[C on sta nt D 0 ]* 1 0
Base number D0=±1,000 to ±9,999
Exponent D1=-41 to +35
The base number 100 does not exist in D0 because 100 is represented by 1,000×10-1. 32-bit decimal floating-point
numbers range between ±1175×10-41 to ±402×10+35.
2.2.3 Strings
The PLC can process strings composed of ASCII codes (*1). A complete string begins with a start character, and ends with
an ending character (NULL code). Strings can have maximum length of 31 characters, and ISPSoft automatically adds the
ending character (16#00).
1. No string (NULL code) is moved.
D0=0 (NULL)
2. The string has an even number of characters.
D0 16#62 (b) 16#61 (a)
D1 16#64 (d) 16#63 (b)
D2 0 (NULL)
2-8
3. The string has an odd number of characters.
D0 16#62 (b) 16#61 (a) 2_

Note:  represents an invisible character. Do not use it in strings.
2.2.4 Input Relays (X)

 Input function
The input is connected to the input device (external devices such as button switches, rotary switches, and number
switches), and the PLC reads the input signal. You can use input contact A or contact B several times in the
program, and the ON/OFF state of the input varies with the ON/OFF state of the input device.
 Input number (the decimal number)
For the PLC, the input numbers start from X0.0. The number of inputs varies with the number of inputs on the digital
input/output modules. The inputs are numbered according to the order in which the digital input/output modules are
connected to the CPU module. The maximum number of inputs for the PLC is 8192, and the input number range is
between X0.0 to X511.15.
2-9
 Input type
Inputs are classified into two types.
1. Regenerated inputs: The PLC reads the state of a regenerated input before the program is executed; for
example, LD X0.0.
2. Direct input: The state of a direct input is read by the PLC during the execution of the instructions; for example,
_2 LD DX0.0.
2.2.5 Output Relays (Y)

 Output function
The output sends the ON/OFF signal to drive the load connected to the output, such as an external signal lamp, a
digital display, or an electromagnetic valve. There are four types of outputs. They are relays, transistors (NPN and
PNP), and TRIACs (thyristors). You can use the output contact A or contact B several times in the program. Use output
Y only once in the program; otherwise, according the PLC’s program-scanning function, the state of the output depends
on the circuit connected to the last output Y in the program.
 Output number (the decimal number)

For the PLC, the output numbers start from Y0.0. The number of outputs varies with the number of outputs on the
digital input/output modules. The outputs are numbered according to the order in which the digital input/output modules
are connected to the PLC. The maximum number of outputs on the PLC is 1024, and the range is between Y0.0 and
Y63.15.
An output that is not used as an output device can be used as a general device.
 Output types
Outputs are classified into two types.
1. Regenerated output: The state of a regenerated output is not written until the program executes the END instruction,
according to the states of the outputs; for example, OUT Y0.0.
2. Direct output: The state of a direct output is written by the PLC during the execution of the instructions, according
to the states of the outputs; for example, OUT DY0.0.
2.2.6 Auxiliary Relays (M)

The auxiliary relay has contact A and contact B. It can be used several times in the program. You can combine the
control loops by using the auxiliary relay, but you cannot drive the external load using the auxiliary relay. You can use the
auxiliary relays in either of the following two ways.
1. For general use: In general use, if an electric power failure occurs when the PLC is running, the
auxiliary relay resets to the OFF state. When the power is restored, the auxiliary
relay remains in the OFF state.
2. For latched use: In latched use, ff an electric power failure occurs when the PLC is running, the state
of the auxiliary relay is retained. When the power is restored, the relay state
remains the same as before the power failure.
2-10
2.2.7 Special Auxiliary Relays (SM)

Every special auxiliary relay has its specific function. Do not use the special auxiliary relays which are not defined.
The special auxiliary relays and their functions are listed as follows. As to the SM numbers marked “*”, users can refer to
the additional remarks on special auxiliary relays/special data registers. “R” in the attribute column indicates that the
special auxiliary relay can read the data, whereas “R/W” in the attribute column indicates that it can read and write the
data. In addition, the mark “–” indicates that the status of the special auxiliary relay does not make any change. The mark
“#” indicates that the system will be set according to the status of the PLC, and users can read the setting value and refer 2_
to the related manual for more information.

2.2.9 Stepping Relays (S)

You can easily use the stepping relay in industrial automation to set a procedure. It is the most basic device in sequential
function chart (SFC) programming. Refer to the ISPSoft User Manual for more information on sequential function chart
programming.
There are 2048 stepping relays, (S0–S2047). Every stepping relay is like an output relay in that it has an output coil,
contact A, and contact B. You can use a stepping relay several times in a program, but the relay cannot directly drive the
external load. In addition, you can use the stepping relay as a general auxiliary relay when it is not used in a sequential
function chart.

2.2.10 Timers (T)

This topic describes the timers available in ISPSoft. Refer to the ISPSoft User Manual for more information on timers.
 100 millisecond timer: The timer specified by the TMR instruction takes 100 milliseconds as the timing unit.
 1 millisecond timer: The timer specified by the TMRH instruction takes 1 millisecond as the timing unit.
 The accumulative timers are ST0–ST511. If you want to use the device-monitoring function, these timers can
_2 monitor T0–T511.
 If you use the same timer repeatedly in a program, including in different TMR and TMRH instructions, the timer
setting value is the one that the timer matches first.
 If you use the same timer repeatedly in a program, the timer is OFF when one of the conditional contacts is OFF.
 If you use the same timer in a program as the timer for a subroutine’s exclusive use and an accumulative timer in the
program, it is OFF when one of the conditional contacts is OFF.
 When the timer switches from ON to OFF and the conditional contact is ON, the timer is reset and counts again.
 When the TMR instruction is executed, the specified timer coil is ON and the timer begins to count. When the value
of the timer matches the timer setting value (value of the timer ≧ setting value), the state of the contact is ON.
A. General-purpose timers
When the TMR instruction is executed, the general-purpose timer begins to count. When the value of the timer
matches the timer setting value, the output coil is ON.
• When X0.0=ON and the timer takes 100 ms as the timing unit, the output coil T0 is ON when the value of the
timer = timer setting value100.
• When X0.0=OFF or the power is off, the value of the timer is 0 and the output coil T0 is OFF.

2-74
B. Accumulative timers
When the TMR instruction is executed, the accumulative timer begins to count. When the value of the timer matches
the timer setting value, the output coil is ON. As long as you add the letter S in front of the letter T, the timer
becomes an accumulative timer. When the conditional contact is OFF, the value of the accumulative timer is not
reset. When the conditional contact is ON, the accumulative timer counts from the current value.
• When X0.0=ON and the timer T250 takes 100 ms as the timing unit, the output coil T250 is ON when the
value of the timer = timer setting value 100.
2_
• When X0.0=OFF or the power is off, the accumulative timer ST250 stops counting, and the value of the timer
stays the same. When X0.0=ON, the value of the timer is the accumulating value. When the accumulated
value = timer setting value 100, the output coil T250 is ON.

C. Timers used in function blocks
T412–T511 are the timers that you can use in the function block or in interrupts.
When the TMR or END instruction is executed, the timer in the functional block begins to count. When the value of
the timer matches the timer setting value, the output coil is ON.
If you use a general-purpose timer in a function block or an interrupt, and the function or interrupt is not executed, the
timer cannot count correctly.

zero, and the contact is reset of OFF.
Action of the contact After the scan is complete, the contact acts.
 Function of the counter
Each time the input switches from OFF to ON, the value of the counter is the same as the output coil. You can use
either the decimal constant or the value in the data register as the counter setting value.
16-bit counter:
1. Setting range: 0–32,767. The setting values 0 and 1 mean the same thing in that the output contact is ON when the
counter counts for the first time.
2. For the general-purpose counter, the current value of the counter is cleared when power is lost. If the counter is
latching, the current value of the counter and the state of the contact before power was lost power are retained. The
latched counter counts from the current value when the power supply is restored.
3. If you use the MOV instruction or ISPSoft to transmit a value larger than the counter setting value to the current
value register C0, the contact of the counter C0 is ON and the current value becomes the same as the counter
setting value the next time X0.1 switches from OFF to ON.
4. You can use either the constant or the value in the data register as the counter setting value.
5. The counter setting value can be positive or negative. If the counter counts up from 32,767, the next value is 0.
6. Use the counters here with CNT instruction. The example used here is a common one. Refer to API 1003 CNT
instruction for more advanced applicaiotns.
2-76

1. When X0.0=ON, the RST instruction is executed, the current value of C0 is reset to zero, and the output contact of
the counter C0 is FF.
2. When X0.1 changes from OFF to ON, the value of the counter increments by one.
3. When the value of the counter C0 reaches the counter setting value of 5, the contact of the counter C0 is ON (the
current value of C0 = the counter setting value = 5). After that the trigger from X0.1 is not accepted by C0 and the
current value of C0 stays at the value 5.

2.2.12 32-bit Counters (HC)

 Characteristics of the 32-bit counter
Item 32-bit counter

Type Up/down counter Up counter High-speed counter
Number HC0–HC63 HC64–HC199 HC200–HC255
_2 Direction Counts up/down Counts up Counts up/down

Setting value -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647
Specification of the The counter setting value can be either the constant or the value occupying two
counter setting value data registers (32-bit).
Change of the current The counter keeps counting even after the value of the counter matches the counter
value setting value.
The contact is ON when the value of the addition counter matches the counter
setting value.
Output contact
The contact is reset to OFF when the value of the subtraction counter matches the
counter setting value.
When the RST instruction is executed, the current value is cleared to zero, and the
Reset
contact is reset to OFF.
Action of the contact After the DCNT instruction scan is complete, the contact acts.
 32-bit general-purpose addition/subtraction counter
1. The difference between the 32-bit general-purpose addition counters and the 32-bit general-purpose subtraction
counters depends on the states of the special auxiliary relays SM621–SM684. For example, the counter HC0 is
an addition counter when SM621 is OFF, whereas HC0 is a subtraction counter when SM621 is ON.
2. You can use either the constant or the value in the data registers as the counter setting value, and this setting
value can be positive or negative. If you use the value in the data registers as the counter setting value, this
setting value occupies two consecutive registers.
3. For the general-purpose counter, the current value of the counter is cleared when power is lost. If the counter is
latching, the current value of the counter and the state of the contact before loss of power is retained. The
latched counter counts from the current value when power is restored.
4. If the counter counts up from 2,147,483,647, the next incremental value is -2,147,483,648. If the counter counts
down from -2,147,483,648, the next incremental value is 2,147,483,647.
5. Use the high-speed counters here with DCNT instruction. The example used here is a common one. Refer to
API 1004 DCNT instruction for more advanced applicaiotns.
2-78
 32-bit high speed addition/subtraction counter
Refer to the instruction description of API1004 DCNT in AS Series Programming Manual for more details.
Example:
2_
1. X10.0 drives SM621 to determine the counting direction (up/down) for HC0.
2. When X11.0 changes from OFF to ON, the RST instruction is executed and the PV in HC0 is cleared to 0 and its
contact is OFF.
3. When X12.0 changes from OFF to ON, PV for HC0 will count up (plus 1) or count down (minus 1).
4. When PV in HC0 changes from -6 to -5, the contact HC0 changes from OFF to ON. When PV in HC0 changes from
-5 to -6, the contact HC0 changes from ON to OFF.

2.2.13 Data Registers (D)

The data register stores 16-bit data. The highest bit represents either a positive sign or a negative sign, and the values
that the data registers can store range between -32,768 to +32,767.
Two 16-bit registers can be combined into a 32-bit register; for example, (D+1, D) in which the lower number register
represents the low 16 bits. The highest bit represents either a positive sign or a negative sign, and the values that the
_2
data registers can store range between -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647.
 Four 16-bit registers can be combined into a 64-bit register; for example, (D+3, D+2, D+1, D) in which the lower
number register represents the lower 16 bits. The highest bit represents either a positive sign or a negative sign,
and the values that the data registers can store range between -9,223,372,036,854,776 to
+9,223,372,036,854,775,807.
 You can also use the data registers to refresh the values in the control registers in the modules other than digital
I/O modules. Refer to the ISPSoft User Manual for more information on refreshing the values in the control
registers.
There are three types of registers.
 General-purpose registers: When the PLC changes to RUN, or is disconnected, the value in the register is cleared
to zero. If you want to retain the data when the PLC changes to RUN, Refer to the ISPSoft User Manual for more
information. Note that the value is still cleared to zero when the PLC is disconnected.
 Latched register: If the PLC is disconnected, the data in the latched register is not cleared. In other words, the
value before the disconnection is retained. If you want to clear the data in the latched area, you can use the RST or
ZRST instructions.
 Frequently mapped registers: If the PLC program contains a module, after each scan cycle, the PLC performs data
mapping with the module. And the mapped data is stored between D26000~D29999. Refer to Chapter 8 of AS
Operation Manual for more details on the automatically assigned addresses of the devices. You can also check the
assigned addresses of the device while configuring in HWCONFIG of ISPSoft.

2.2.14 Special Data Registers (SR)

Every special data register has its own definition and specific function. System status and the error messages are stored
in the special data registers. You can also use special data registers to monitor the system statuses. The special data
registers and their functions are listed in the table below.
• For SR numbers marked “*”, Refer to the additional remarks in Section 2.2.1.6 on special auxiliary
relays/special data registers.
2_
• The “R” in the attribute column indicates that the special data register can read the data; “R/W” in the attribute
column indicates that it can read and write the data.
• The “–” indicates that the status of the special data register does not make any change.
• The “#” indicates that the system is set according to the status of the PLC, and you can read the setting. Refer
to the related manual for more information.
• The “Y” in the column latched means it is latched, the “N” means it is non-latched; and “H” means it follows the
settings in HWCONFIG.
During execution, you can edit programs in the PLC, but the settings in the HWCONFIG do not change.

_2  SR36 only stores 2 logs：
A. The number 1234 means the PLC stores the error log (SR40–SR161) in the memory card.
B. The number 3456 means the PLC stores the error log (SR40–SR161) and the PLC state changing log
(SR309–SR390) in the memory card.
13. The high-speed output instruction is being executed. The output immediately stops when the instruction is
disabled or stops.
 SM587: while using the position planning table to control the output, the axis should refer to the following flags
for the action to stop. This function is available for firmware V.1.06.00 or later.
 SM476, SM477, SM496, SM497, SM516, SM517, SM536, SM537, SM556, SM557, SM576, SM577:
OFF (default): deceleration stop
ON: immediate stop
 SM463, SM474, SM483, SM494, SM503, SM514, SM523, SM534, SM543, SM554, SM563, SM574：use these
flags to pause output.
When the flag changes from OFF to ON, it means stop the output. This works with these flags; refer to the
section above for more actions on stop.
When the flag changes from ON to OFF, it means execute the rest of the outputs.
 The flag for position output axis 1-6 (even number high speed pulse output points) in ramp up / ramp down area
is available for firmware V1.06.00 or later.
 SM586
OFF (default): use high-intensity 250 steps to switch to different speeds in the ramp up/ramp down area and the
error rate of switching time is about 10%.
ON：use high-intensity 25 steps to switch to different speeds in the ramp up/ramp down area and the error rate of
switching time is about 1%.
14. Position control output limit in ISPSoft
 SR580-SR603
Positive output limit: set the limit in ISPSoft. When the output position is greater than the positive limit, the output
stops immediately.
Negative output limit: set the limit in ISPSoft. When the output position is smaller than the negative limit, the output
stops immediately.
When the positive and negative output limits are both 0, the function is disabled. This function works with the
output instructions. The system only checks the limit set in ISPSoft when the instruction is executed. Thus the
system does not come to an immediate stop even when it is beyond the output limit. If an immediate stop is
needed, using the external input as the way to check the limit is recommended.

15. Backlash compensation function
 SR478, SR479, SR498, SR499, SR518, SR519, SR538, SR539, SR558, SR559, SR578, SR579
For AS series, up to 12 high-speed outputs (Y0.0-Y0.11) can be set. Each output works with a corresponding SR
for users to set the output number for backlash compensations. The setting range is 0-32767. If the setting value is
<= 0, this function is disabled.
 This function is available for firmware version 1.02.30 and later. The output instrucitons that support odd number 2_
axis outputs and are directional output by default are JOG, DZRN, DPLSV, DDRVI, DDRVA, DPPMR, DPPMA,
DCICR, DCICA, DCICCR, DCICCA, DCCMR, DCCMA, DPPGB and TPO. For even number axis outputs, you
can use the following instructions JOG, DPLSV, DDRVI and DDRVA. For firmware version 1.10 or later, CSFO
instruction is also supported.
 If the above-mentioned supported instructions are used and the instruction is stopped right after the output
directon is changed, if the backlash compensation function is enabled under this condition, PLC needs to run
the compensated ones before a real stop. So that there will be no uncompensated backlashes left when the
next output is enabled.
16. Flags to show the output number of the current positioning output in the ramp up / ramp down area.
(available for firmware V1.06.00 or later)
 SR652-653 (32-bit value)
The output number in the ramp up area: the accumulated output number counted from the acceleration starting
point to the target speed point (not included).
 SR654-655 (32-bit value)
The output number in the ramp down area: the accumulated output number counted from the target speed point
(not included) to the output stopping point.
17. Flags to show the CAN communication quality (available for firmware V1.06.00 or later)
 SR823
Hardware receiving error counter for CAN communication: when the error number exceeds 127, it indicates the
hardware error occurance is too frequent, you need to check the communication cables or adjust the
transmission speed or modify the sample points manually.
 SR824
Hardware sending error counter for CAN communication: when the error number exceeds 127, it indicates the
hardware error occurance is too frequent, you need to check the communication cables or adjust the
transmission speed or modify the sample points manually.
18. Ethernet IP related flags

Example:
1. Determine the Ethernet communication quality
Step 1: Check if the value in SR1019 is 0.
SR1019 = 0 Good communication quality
SR1019 > 0 Error occurred during communication, go to step 2
Step 2: Check the current values in SR1017 and SR1018 2_

Communication quality is good; set the value in SR1019 to 0. If the error occurs from time
SR1017 < SR1018 to time, ask your network administer to check if there is any device that can cause
communication error in the network.
If the value in SR1019 is NOT 0, it indicates the communication is not normal. You need to
The values in lower the workload of data exchange or refresh the network capacity.
SR1017 and SR1018
are close
2. Refresh the network capacity

◆ When you raise the value in SR1017, the value in SR1019 should also be raised. But if the value in
SR1019 stays the same and the values in SR1018 and SR1017 are quite close, that indicates the
communication workload is almost full. It is suggested to raise a value that is at least 5 times bigger
compared to the SR1018 value in SR1017. You need to clear the value in SR1019 to see if it works
whenever you change the value in SR1017.
◆ When the network traffic is heavy, if you raise the value in SR1017, evey 10 more increased value, adds
around 2.2 ms more on the scan time. (the test environment: no extension module, no RTU or data
exchange table.) Therefore, after the value in SR1017 is raised, you need to pay attention on the scan
time. If the network traffic is not too heavy, the value in SR1017 will not affect the scan time too much.
However, if the network is abnormal, CPU uses more resources on the packet handling and that will
increase the scan time. You need to consider the network workload and the scan time, when you set the
value in SR1017.
◆ If the packets cannot be handled in the allowable scan time, you can consider the followings to lower the
network workload.
 Decrease the network connections with the CPU, for example, decrease the data exchange numbers
via Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP.
 Lower the refreshing rate in data exchange, for example lessen the refreshing cycle for data exchange
via Modbus TCP, or increase the value in RPI for data exchange via EtherNet/IP.

21. Flags SM230-SM261 is to activate modules when selecting “Manual + Flags” in “I/O allocation setting when Power
On”.
When selecting “Manual + Flags (only I/O module of CPU module)” in “I/O allocation setting when Power On”, use
flags SM230-SM261 to activate the 1st – 32nd module on the right-side of the CPU module. (available for FW
V1.06.00 or later).
When selecting “Manual + Flags (I/O module of CPU & Remote module)”, use flags SM230-SM261 to activate the
1st – 32nd module on the right-side of the CPU module remotely (available for FW V1.08.50 or later and ISPSoft
V3.12 or later supports this function.)
For less module applications, you can use the same PLC program and download the I/O allocation table once for
various I/O applications. Two things to be noted when applying this mode:
A. You need to use a bigger I/O allocation planning beforehand and store this planning in AS series PLC.
B. You can simply use special flags to mark which I/O module will NOT be used to meet the actual I/O module
placement. But you cannot rearrange the original order of the module placement.
Add a new selection “Manual + Flags” for the setting option “I/O module allocation setting when Power ON”. Select
this option, you need to use it with flags SM230-SM261. For less module applications, you can simply use special
flags to mark which I/O module will NOT be used to meet the actual I/O module placement. In this mode, you can
use the same PLC program and download the I/O allocation table once for various I/O applications.

Example:
Step 1: Select “Manual + Flags (I/O module of CPU & Remote module)” for the setting option “I/O module allocation
setting when Power ON” in HWCONFIG.
2_
Step 2: Create an entire module allocation and download the I/O allocation table to HWCONFIG.
Step 3: When 16AP, 04DA, 08AM (right-side module) and 16AP as well as 06X6 (remote module) are not needed in the
application, you can set the flags SM231 (indicating 16AP), SM233 (indicating 04DA), SM235 (including 08AM), SM237
(indicating remote 16AP) and SM239 (indicating remote 06X6) to OFF to meet the actual I/O module placement. You do
not need to change their order number in the PLC program. After turn the power off and then power-on again, the actual
placement is as below. The IO number in the PLC program does NOT need to be changed.

23. Auto-reset flags for pulse output
 While executing the pulse output instructions, to avoid the control over the same pulse output device is taken
repeatedly by different type or diffent triggered output instrucitons. PLC auto-reset the right to control the
pulse instruction to the first executed instruction till the assigned instruction is completely stopped. Because
of the unique characteristic, PLC scan cannot detect if the pulse instruction is stopped when you use the
pulse output instruction in the ST language, interrupt subroutine or one-time function block. Therefore, the
right to control the pulse instruction is kept and any ongoing instructions can neither be executed nor
outputted normally.
 To free the right to execute other pulse output instructions, you can use the auto-reset flags for the PLC to
check if the output is complete.
Note: you can set the auto-reset flags to ON and once the output is complete, the flag resets to OFF
automatically.

Explanation
i. When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 1000 pulses at 1kHz, and set SM470 on Y0.0.
ii. When Y0.0 output is complete, PLC frees the right for the Y0.0 to be ready again.
iii. When M0 is from OFF to ON again, Y0.0 output can start again.

Explanation
i. When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 1000 pulses at 1kHz, and set M1 to ON to record Y0.0 is taken.
ii. When M0 is OFF, once Y0.0 output is complete, SM461 is ON. IF M1 is ON, it triggers the auto-reset flag of Y0.0
(SM470=ON) and PLC frees the right for the Y0.0 to be ready again.
iii. When M0 is from OFF to ON again, Y0.0 output can start again.
24. Auto-rest flags for Delta CAN communicaiton
 While executing the CAN instructions, to avoid the control over the same ID of Servo/Inverter is taken
repeatedly by different type or diffent triggered CAN instrucitons. PLC assigns the right to control the pulse
instruction to the first executed instruction till the assigned instruction is completely stopped. Because of the
unique characteristic, PLC scan cannot detect if the CAN instruction is stopped when you use the CAN
instruction in the ST language, interrupt subroutine or one-time function block. Therefore, the right to control
the CAN instruction is kept and any ongoing instructions can nether be executed nor control the servo/inverter
normally.
 To free the right to execute other CAN output instructions, you can use the auto-reset flags for the PLC to
check if the communicaton between Delta Servo or Delta Moto is complete.
Note: you can set the auto-reset flags to ON and once the CAN communication is complete, the flag resets to
OFF automatically.

25. Use DPLSY in high-speed comparison interrupt (I2xx), available for FW V1.08.70 or later.
Example of the PLC program:

 Start the instructions of high speed counter (DCNT) and high speed comparison (DHSCS) in the program cycle.
Note: When M0 is ON, HC200 high-speed counter is started. When the counted
value in S2 reached 50, the high-speed comparison interrupt I200 is
triggered.
 Write an instruction DPLSY in the high-speed comparison interrupt I200.
Note: Auto-reset the control when outputting 1000 pulses at 1kHz frequency from Y0.0. are complete.
2-154
 The procedure
There are four procedures A-D, when the input counted value changes 49 -> 50 to output the pulses through Y0.0.
A. The input counted value changes from 49 to 50.

B. The high-speed comparison interrupt is triggered. The PLC program is interrupted and the high-speed
comparison interrupt is executed.
C. Execute instruction DPLSY that is written in the high-speed comparison interrupt.
2_
D. Pulses are outputted from Y0.0.
Since the interrupt is affected by the time it is triggered and by the PLC on-going executions, such as IO points
refreshing, communication implementing and so forth, the time when the pulses to be outputted can be greatly delayed.
To improve the execution time, new SM flags are added.

 SM120-SM151: To pre-store the parameters for DPLSY to output
Set the SM in this category to ON to save the DPLSY to-be-outputted parameters, including output point number, target
frequency and number of pulses to the PLC flash memory. When the high-speed comparison interrupt is triggered and
any of the SM360-391 is set to ON, the output can be started right away. Once any of SM120-151 is used, it is set to
OFF. You need to set it to ON before using it again.
 SM360-SM391: To enable triggering DPLSY in the interrupt to output pulses

When the high-speed comparison interrupt is triggered and any of the SM360-391 is set to ON, the output can be started
right away to output any of the SM120-151 stored DPLSY parameters. Auto-reset the control, after the output is
complete.
The corresponding numbers of high-speed comparison interrupt to the newly added SMs are listed below.

Explanation
Set M0 to ON to trigger SM120 to ON to save the DPLSY to-be-outputted parameters (outputting 1000 pulses at 1kHz
frequency) to the PLC flash memory.
Stat HC200 high-speed counter and set SM360 to ON. When the counted value in S2 reached 50, the high-speed
comparison interrupt I200 is triggered. The moment when the interrupt is triggered, Y0.0 starts to output 1000 pulses at
1kHz frequency.
2-156
 The high-speed comparison interrupt I200
Explanation 2_
Since the execution of high-speed output has been completed in POU, there is no need to write any program in the
interrupt.
26. Use backlash compensation in CSFO (available for FW V1.08.30 or later)
PLC uses the propositional conversion formula to converse the frequency and pulse numbers for inputs into what are
suitable for outputs. From input to output, this process not only takes time and it may also cause backlash issues. When
the number of pulses run through the input goes larger, so does the backlash.
To precise operation, use the following SM/SR to compensate for backlashes caused by a longtime CSFO operation.
Output axis designated by Flag to activate the backlash Increase the frequency to
CSFO compensation compensate backlashes (Hz)
Y0.0 / Y0.1 SM1700 SR1700
Y0.2 / Y0.3 SM1701 SR1702
Y0.4 / Y0.5 SM1702 SR1704
Y0.6 / Y0.7 SM1703 SR1706
Y0.8 / Y0.9 SM1704 SR1708
Y0.10 / Y0.11 SM1705 SR1710
 SM1700~1705: Flag to activate the backlash compensation

ON: To increase the actual output frequency and the number of output pulses to close the distance between the
position of input and output. The compensation stops automatically once the positions of input and output are the
same. You can also set this flag to OFF, if the positions of input and output do not need to be the same.
OFF: To decrease the actual output frequency and the number of output pulses to stop compensating till the output
falls behind to its original delayed position.
NOTE: Be sure to close the flag to deactivate the compensation before stopping the execution of CSFO. If not, you
may find the compensated output is still running even after the execution of CSFO has stopped.
 SR1700~1710: Increase the frequency to compensate backlashes

You can define the frequency, ranging from 50 Hz~10 KHz (unit: 50 Hz) for the compensation of the backlashes. At
first, it is recommended to try a lower frequency. Otherwise, sudden and quick movements may have an impact on
the mechanism operation. The compensation stops automatically once the positions of input and output are the
same. The frequency unit is 50 Hz; thus, if using 80 Hz, it will be seen as 50 Hz and 120Hz will be treated as 100
Hz.
2-157
The illustration of using backlash compensation in CSFO.

Number of pulses
_2
Frequency Black Line: Input

Green Line: output
The ratio of the number of input and output pulses is 1:1.
The timings are shown as , , , . See the explanations below.
： Since the number of pulse runs through input is large and the input
frequency is fast, the output cannot catch up with it, the distance between
input and output grows bigger and bigger. The backlash compensation
has not started yet.
：Enable the flag to activate the backlash compensation. Increase the
number of output pulses according to the frequency of input and
compensation till the positions of input and output are the same.
：Disable the flag to deactivate the backlash compensation. Decrease the
actual output frequency and number of output pulses to stop
compensating till the output falls behind to its original delayed position.
：When the flag to activate the backlash compensation is enabled or
disable, the PLC calculates and to increase or decrease the output
frequency to enhance the smoothness of the compensation.
The example here shows if the current output frequency is 1 KHz and the compensated frequency is 100 Hz, the actual
output frequency should be around 1.1 KHz.
2.2.17 Index Register (E)

The Index register is a 16-bit data register. It is similar to the General register in that data can be read from it and written
to it; however, it is mainly used as the index register. The range of index registers is E0–E9. Refer to Section 4.4 in the
AS300 Series Programming Manual for more information about using index registers.
2.2.18 File Registers (FR)

 The AS300 Series PLC provides you with File registers for storing larger numbers of parameters.
 You can edit, upload, and download the parameters in the File registers through ISPSoft.
 You can read the values in File registers while operating the PLC. Refer to the MEMW instruction (API 2303) in the
AS300 Series Programming Manual for more information about how to write to the File registers.

4.1 Applied Instructions - API Description

This section describes the way this manual documents each API instruction. Every instruction has its own instruction
code and API number. The instructions are divided into sections based on the related functions of the instructions, so
that all the arithmetic instructions are in one section, and all the comparison instructions are in another section. The
following example uses the MOV instruction. The API number of the instruction in the table is 0300, the instruction code
is MOV, and the function is transferring data.

Pulse instruction 16-bit instruction 32-bit instruction

AS AS AS
Symbol:
S ： Data source
D ： Data destination
1. The devices used by the instruction are listed in the operand column. S, D, n, and m are used as the operands
according to their functions. When more than one operand is used, and these operands share the same function,
they are differentiated by subscripts; for example, S1, and S2.
2. If you can use a 16-bit instruction as a 32-bit instruction, the letter D prepended to the 16-bit instruction code to
form the 32-bit instruction form. If you can use the instruction as a pulse instruction, the letter P is appended to the
instruction code. For example, “D***P” in which “***” is the instruction code indicates a 32-bit pulse instruction.
3. F in the operand area indicates a single precision floating point number (32-bit).
4. The solid circle ● indicates that the device can be modified by an index register, and the hollow circle ○ indicates
that the device cannot be modified by an index register. For example, the data register designated by the operand
S can be modified by an index register.
5. The applicable model is indicated in the table. You can check whether you can use the instruction as a pulse
instruction, a 16-bit instruction, a 32-bit instruction, or a 64-bit instruction according to the information in the table.
6. If you want to use an instruction in a function block, and the output, input, and data devices are supported in the
operands, you have to use the pointer registers. AS indicates that to use a timer, a 16-bit counter, and a 32-bit
4-2
Ch a pt er 4 Ins tr uc t i on S tr uc t ur e
counter that are supported in the operands, you have to use the timer pointer register, the 16-bit counter pointer
register, and the 32-bit counter pointer register. Refer to Sections 4.4–4.7 for more information or Section 7.2.4 in
the ISPSoft manual.
7. The symbols representing the MOV instruction in ISPSoft are:
MOV, MOVP, DMOV, and DMOVP are the Instruction codes for this instruction
En: Enable
S: The data source (the applicable format of the operand is a word/double word.)
D: The data destination (the applicable format of the operand is a word/double word.)
Applied instructions composition
Some applied instructions are composed of instruction codes. For example, the EI, DI, and WDT instructions; however,
most applied instructions consist of instruction codes and several operands.
Every applied instruction has its own API number and instruction code. For example, the instruction code API 0300 is the
MOV (transfer data) instruction. You can enter an applied instruction in three ways.
Enter the instruction directly: you can enter the instruction in ISPSoft. For the MOV instruction, enter the instruction
4_
name and the operands to designate “MOV D0
Enter the instruction by dragging: you can drag the MOV instruction from APIs in ISPSoft to the ladder diagram editor.
Enter the instruction from the toolbar: you can click API/FB Selection on the toolbar in ISPSoft, and then click API.
Finally, click the MOV instruction in Data Transfer.
Source operand
S If there is more than one source operand, the source operands are represented by subscript (for
example S1, S2).
Destination operand
D If there is more than one destination operand, the destination operands are represented by
subscript (for example, D1, D2).
If the operand only can be a constant K/H or a register value, it is represented by m, m1, m2, n, n1, or n2.
The length of the operand (6-bit, 32-bit, or floating-point number instructions):
16-bit or 32-bit instructions
Operand values in instructions are divided into 16-bit values and the 32-bit values. In order to process data of difference
lengths, the instructions are divided into 16-bit and 32-bit instructions. To differentiate a 32-bit instruction from the 16-bit
form, a D is added in front of the 16-bit instruction code (16-bit MOV and 32-bit DMOV).
4-3
The floating-point number instruction
16-bit MOV instruction
When M1 is ON, the data in D0 is

transferred to D1.
32-bit DMOV instruction
When M1 is ON, the data in (D1,

D0) is transferred to (D3, D2).
Floating-point number instructions
Floating-point number instructions support 32-bit floating-point number instructions that correspond to the single-
_4 precision floating-point number instructions. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information about floating-point numbers.
32-bit single-precision floating-point number F+ instruction
When X0.0 is ON, the data in

(D11, D10) and (D21, D20) is
transferred to (D31, D30).
Continuous execution and pulse execution of instructions
1. Instruction execution can be divided into continuous and pulse execution. You can reduce the scan cycle with
pulse instructions because when the instruction is not executed, less time is needed to execute the program.
2. The pulse function allows the related instruction to enable the rising edge-triggered control input. The instruction is
ON for one scan cycle.
3. If the control input stays ON, and the related instruction is not executed, the control input must be switched from
OFF to ON again in order to execute the instruction.
4. The following shows the difference between pulse and continuous instruction:
Pulse execution When M1 switches from OFF to ON, the

MOVP instruction is executed once. The
instruction is not executed again in the scan
cycle. Therefore, it is called a pulse
instruction.
Continuous execution
Whenever M1 is ON during the scan cycle,
the MOV instruction is executed once.
Therefore, the instruction is called a
continuous instruction.
When the conditional contact M1 is OFF, neither instruction is executed, and the value in the destination operand D does
not change.

4.2 Operand Usage Description

There are 2 types of operands in the AS Series: user-defined and system-defined.
User-defined operands
• Input relays: X0.0–X63.15 or X0–X63
• Output relays: Y0.0–Y63.15 or Y0–Y63
• Internal relays: M0–M8191
• Stepping relays: S0–S2047
• Timers: T0–T511
• 16-bit counters: C0–C511
• 32-bit counters: HC0–HC255
• Data registers: D0–D29999 or D0.0–D29999.15
• File registers: FR0–FR65535

4_
• Special auxiliary flags: SM0–SM2047
• Special data registers: SR0–SR2047
• Index registers: E0–E9
• Constants: The decimal constants are indicated by K, and the hexadecimal constants are indicated by 16#.
• Strings: “$”
• Floating-point numbers: The single-precision floating-point numbers are indicated by F.
• The length of the data in one register is generally 16 bits. If you want to store 32-bit data in the register, designate
two consecutive registers for the data.
• If the operand in a 32-bit instruction uses D0, it occupies the 32-bit data register composed of (D1, D0). D1
represents the higher 16 bits, and D0 represents the lower 16 bits. The same rule applies to the timer and the 16-
bit counter.
• When you use the 32-bit counter HC as the data register, it can only be used by the operand in a 32-bit instruction.
• You can only use index registers in 16-bit instructions.
Refer to Chapter 2 Devices for more information.
4-5
System-defined operands
• The system assigns the variables to declare such as BOOL, WORD, INT and so on: U0–U16387 and W0–
W29999.
• To start or stop a task use the TK0–TK31 instructions.
The following table lists the pointer type variable symbols, the supporting devices and usage.

ONED, PED, APED, OPED
 You cannot use the following instruction in interrupt tasks: GOEND
 You cannot use the in function blocks: LDP, ANDP, ORP, LDF, ANDF, ORF, PLS, PLF, NP, PN, MC/MCR, GOEND
and all pulse instructions in applied instructions.
If you want to use some of the instructions mentioned above, you can use the substitute instructions in the
following table.

*1: Pulse instructions cannot be used in function blocks. If you want to get the function of the pulse instruction in a
function block, refer to the following example.
Example:
1. First, declare 10 bit variables tempBit[10] to be used in the system.
2. When StartBit1 switches from OFF to ON, method 1 (network 1) and method 2 (network 2) can only execute the
MOV instruction once; you can choose which one to use.
3. You cannot use the variable tempBit in the system more than once.
4-7
 Use the following instructions with the Ladder Programming Language

For the following instructions, you need to start the instruction execution while the PLC switch from STOP to RUN.
And when the following instructions stop executing, the PLC should stop programming too. It is suggested to use
the following instructions with the Ladder Programming Language. Do NOT use the programming language that
only does one time execution, for example, function blocks that only can be called once. Or do not use the
programming language that stops scanning once the executing the instruction stops, for example ST and SFC
programming languages. If the function block can be called several times by different programs, it is not suitable
for the following instructions either.

4.4 Index Registers

Index registers are 16-bit data registers. They are similar to the general register in that you can read data from them and
write data into them. However, they are mainly used as index registers. The range of index registers is E0–E9. It is not
recommended to use the index registers for global variables; they can only be used for partial variables and for
temporary.
Index registers are used as follows.
1. Using the register name to modify the device:
4_
When M0 is ON, E0=10, E1=17, D1@E0=D (1+10)=D11, D11 is ON.
NOTE 1: AS Series support using the register name to modify the device; for example, D0.1@E0 but does not
support 2-layered modification for example, [email protected]@E0.
NOTE 2: When E0=17, D0.1@E0=D0.(1+17)=D1.2, and D1.2 is ON. The bit part 1@E0=(1+17)=18. However, the
maximum bit number is 15. Since m=18/16=1 and the remainder is 2, the last modification result is D
(0+1).2=D1.2. D1.2 is ON.
When M0 is ON, E0=10, and M1@E0=M (1+10)=M11. M11 is ON.
4-9
2. Declaring the variables first, and then modifying the device:
 Declare the three variables StartBit, Var1, and Var2 in ISPSoft.
The type of StartBit is a Boolean array, and its size is 2 bits. The range is from StartBit[0] to StartBit[1].
The type of Var1 is a word array, and its size is 11 words. The range is from Var1[0] to Var1[10].
The type of Var2 is a word, and its size is one word.
 When StartBit[0] is ON, E0=10, E1=1, Var1[0]@E0=Var1[10], Var2=Var1[10], and

StarrtBit[0]@E1=StartBit[1]. StartBit[1] is ON.
_4
Additional remark: When you declare the variables in ISPSoft, and the variables are added to the contents of the
registers to form the addresses to the actual data, you must note the addresses to prevent the
program from being executed incorrectly.
3. Using index registers in an interrupt instruction:
 The index registers E0~E9 in the main program (e.g. POU, SFC, and FB) are different from the ones
(index registers E0~E9) in the interrupt program. They are independent groups of index registers and
they work separately.
 You can use ISPSoft to monitor the values of index registers in the main program.
 Application: If you use E0 in the main program and in the interrupt program. When an interrupt occurs,
before executing the interrupt program, the system stores the value of E0 in the main program. After
the interrupt program is executed, the value of E0 in the main program will be retained. So that the
interrupt program will not affect the value of E0 in the main program and the result of the main program
execution can stay unaffected.
 Refer to the following example, if you need to monitor the values of index registers E0-E9 in the
interrupt program, or if the main program is also using the values of index registers E0-E9 in the
interrupt program. (Note: It is NOT recommended to use index registers as global variables. If you
need to use it as a global variable, you need to declare or define other devices to use it as a global
variable.)
4-10
 Example: Declare D100 as the variable of the index register E0. And this example use MOVE
instruction to demonstrate. Whenever an external interrupt occurs at X0.0, the value in D200
accumulates the occurrences in the values in D1000 ~ D1199.
4_
4 - 11
4.5 Pointer Registers

 ISPSoft supports function blocks. When the variable declaration type is VAR_IN_OUT, and the data type is
POINTER, the variable is a pointer register. The value in the pointer register can refer directly to the value stored in
a device X, Y, or D; and the pointer register can point to the address associated with the variable set automatically
in ISPSoft.
 You can declare 16 pointer registers in every function block. The range is PR0–PR15, or PR0.0–PR15.15.
Example:
1. Create a program organization unit (POU) in ISPSoft.
2. Create a function block called FB0.
3. Create the program in the function block FB0.

_4
4. Declare the variable in the function block FB0.
Choose VAR_IN_OUT as the declaration type, Point1 as the identifier, POINTER as the data type. The variable is
the pointer register.
5. Declare the variable in the program organization unit (POU).
6. Call the function block FB0 in the program organization unit (POU).
7. The program in the program organization unit (POU) operates as shown below.
4-12
Network 1: When StartBit[0] is ON, the address of D0 is transmitted to Point 1 in FB0.
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, E0=1, Var1=D0, Point1@E0=D (0+1)=D1, and Var2=D1.
Network 2: When StartBit[1] is ON, the address of CVar1[0] is transmitted to Point1 in FB0.
4_
Var2=CVar1[1]。When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, E0=1, Var1=CVar1[0], Point1@E0=CVar1
(0+1)=Cvar1[1], and Var2=CVar1[1].
4-13
4.6 Pointer Registers of Timers

 ISPSoft supports function blocks. If you want to use a timer in a function block, you must declare a timer pointer
register in the function block. The address of the timer is transmitted to the timer pointer register when the function
block is called.
 When the variable declaration type is VAR_IN_OUT, and the data type is T_POINTER, the variable is the timer
pointer register. The value in the timer pointer register can refer directly to the value stored in the device T, or in the
variable which is the timer in ISPSoft.
 You can declare up to 8 timer pointer registers in every function block. The range is TR0–TR7.
 If you want to use an instruction in the function block, and the timer is supported by the operands, you must use a
timer pointer register.
Example: using a timer in a function block.
2. Create a function block which is called FB0.

_4
Choose VAR_IN_OUT as the declaration type, TPoint1 as the identifier, and T_POINTER as the data type. The
variable is the timer pointer register.
4-14
4. The program in the function block FB0 appears as shown below.

4_
The data type of CVar1 should be TIMER.
Network 1: When StartBit[0] is ON, the address of T511 is transmitted to TPoint1 in FB0.
When VarBit1 in the FB0 is ON, the TMR instruction is executed, and TPoint1 (T511) starts counting.
When the value of TPoint1 matches the TPoint1 setting, VarOut is ON.
Network 2: When StartBit[1] is ON, the address of CVar1[0] is transmitted to TPoint1 in FB0.
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, the TMR instruction is executed, and TPoint (CVar1) starts counting.
When the value of TPoint1 matches the TPoint1 setting, VarOut is ON.
4-15
4.7 Pointer Registers for 16-bit Counters

 ISPSoft supports function blocks. If you want to use a 16-bit counter in a function block, you must declare a 16-bit
counter pointer register in the function block. The address of the 16-bit counter is transmitted to the 16-bit counter
pointer register when the function block is called.
 When the variable declaration type is VAR_IN_OUT, and the data type is C_POINTE, the variable is the 16-bit
counter pointer register. The value in the 16-bit counter pointer register can refer directly to the value stored in the
device T, or in the variable which is the counter in ISPSoft.
 You can declare up to eight 16-bit counter pointer registers in every function block. The range is CR0–CR7.
 If you want to use an instruction in the function block, and the counter is supported by the operands, you have to
use a 16-bit counter pointer register.
Example: using a 16-bit counter in a function block.

_4 2. Create a function block which is called FB0.
Choose VAR_IN_OUT as the declaration type, CPoint1 as the identifier, C_POINTER as the data type. The
variable is a 16-bit counter pointer register.
4. The program in the function block FB0 appears as shown below:
The data type of CVar1 should be COUNTER.
4-16
Network 1: When StartBit[0] is ON, the address of C0 is transmitted to CPoint1 in FB0.
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, CPoint1 (C0) is ON.
Network 2: When StartBit[1] is ON, the address of CVar1 is transmitted to CPoint1 in FB0.
4_
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, CPoint1 (CVar1) is ON.
4-17
4.8 Pointer Registers for 32-bit Counters

 ISPSoft supports function blocks. If you want to use a 32-bit counter in the function block, you must declare a 32-
bit counter pointer register in the function block. The address of the 32-bit counter is transmitted to the 32-bit
counter pointer register when the function block is called.
 When the variable declaration type is VAR_IN_OUT, and the data type is HC_POINTER, the variable is a 32-bit
counter pointer register. The value in a 32-bit counter pointer register can refer directly to the value stored in the
device HC or in the variable which is the counter in ISPSoft.
 You can declare up to eight 32-bit counter pointer registers in every function block. The range is HCR0–HCR7.
 If you want to use an instruction in the function block, and the 32-bit counter is supported by the operands, you
must use the 32-bit counter pointer register.
Example: using a 32-bit counter in a function block.
1. Create a function block called FB0.
_4
Choose VAR_IN_OUT as the declaration type, HCPoint1 as the identifier, HC_POINTER as the data type. The
variable is a 32-bit counter pointer register.
3. The program in the function block FB0 appears as follows:
The data type of CVar1 should be COUNTER, and you must fill in the address column with a valid address of the
32-bit counter.
6. The program in the program organization unit (POU) operates as follows:
Network 1: When StartBit[0] is ON, the address of HC0 is transmitted to HCPoint1 in FB0.
4-18
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, HCPoint1 (HC0) is ON.
Network: When StartBit[1] is ON, the address of CVar1 is transmitted to HCPoint1 in FB0.
When VarBit1 in FB0 is ON, HCPoint1 (CVar1) is ON.

4.9 File Register

 AS Series PLC provides File registers (FR) for storing larger numbers of parameters.
 You can edit, upload, and download the parameters in the file registers with ISPSoft.
 The values in file registers can be read while the PLC is running. Refer to the MEMW instruction (API 2303) in the
AS300 Series Programming Manual for more information about how to read and write parameters to file registers.

1. These instructions compare the values in S1 and S2. Take the LD= instruction for example. When the comparison 6_
result is that the value in S1 is equal to that in S2, the continuity condition of the instruction is met. When the
comparison result is that the value in S1 is not equal to that in S2, the discontinuity condition of the instruction is
met.

D+1 is ON. If the compared value in S2 is less than the value in S, D+2 is ON.
Example
1. If the operand D is M0, the comparison results are stored in M0, M1 and M2.
2. When X0.0 is ON, the FZCP instruction is executed. M0, M1, or M2 is ON. When X0.0 is OFF, the FZCP instruction
is not executed, and the state of M0, the state of M1, and the state of M2 remain unchanged.
3. If you want to clear the comparison result, use the RST or ZRST instruction.

Additional remarks
1. If the value in S1 or S2 or S exceeds the range of values that can be represented by the floating-point numbers, the
contact is OFF, SM is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2013.

Explanation
1. This instruction searches for the bits with different states, starting from the bits specified by adding one to the
current value in D. After finding the bits with different states, the instruction stores the bit number in D, and the
comparison is finished.
2. The operand n must be between 1–256.
3. When SM607 is ON, the equivalent values are compared. When SM607 is OFF, the different values are compared.
When the matching bits are found, the comparison stops immediately, and SM610 is ON. When the last bits are
compared, SM608 is ON, and the bit number is stored in D. The comparison starts from the 0th bits in the next scan
cycle, and SM609 is ON. When the value in D exceeds the range, SM611 is ON.
4. When the MCMP instruction is executed, you need a 16-bit register to specify a certain bit among the 16n bits in
the matrix for the operation. The register is called the pointer, and is specified by you. The value in the register is
between 0–16n-1, and corresponds to the bit between b0 to b16n-1. During the operation, you are prevented from
altering the value of the pointer in case the search for the matching bits is affected. If the value of the pointer
exceeds the range, SM611 is ON, and the MCMP instruction is not executed.
5. If SM608 and SM610 occur simultaneously, they are ON simultaneously.
6-33
Example
1. When X0.0 is switched from OFF to ON, SM609 is OFF. The search for the bits with different states (SM607 is
OFF) starts from the bits specified by the adding one to the current value of the pointer.
2. Suppose the current value in D20 is 2. When X0.0 is switched from OFF to ON four times, you get the following
execution results.
 The value in D20 is 5, SM610 is ON, and SM608 is OFF.
 The value in D20 is 47, SM610 is OFF, and SM608 is ON.

S ： Pointer register

Explanation 6_
1. This instruction checks whether the value in S and (the value in S)+n-1 exceed the device range. If the result is
that the value in S and (the value in S)+n-1 do not exceed the device range, the device D is ON. Otherwise, it is
OFF.
2. S supports the pointer registers D, T, C, HC (POINTER/T_POINTER/C_POINTER/HC_POINTER).
4. You can use the CHKADR instruction only in a function block. Use CHKADR during the initial program
development phase or when you are not sure if the device range will be exceeded. After the program is written and
debugged, you can delete this instruction.
6-37
Example
1. Create a program (Prog0) and a function block (FB0) in ISPSoft.
Declare two variables in the program.
2. Declare VarPR1, VarTR1, VarCR1, and VarHCR1 in the function block, and assign the data types POINTER,
T_POINTER, C_POINTER, and HC_POINTER to them respectively.
_6
3. Call the function block FB0 in the program, and assign D29999, T0, C511, and HC50 to VarPR1, VarTR1, VarCR1,
and VarHCR1 in FB0 respectively.
4. Use the CHKADR instruction to check whether VarPR1, VarTR1, VarCR1, and VarHCR1 exceed the range.
5. When chkPR is ON, the actual device represented by VarPR1 is D29999. Since the legal range of devices is from
D0 to D29999, and D29999+10-1=D30008 which exceeds the range, PR_ChkBit is OFF.
6-38
6. When chkTR is ON, the actual device represented by VarTR1 is T0. Since the legal range of devices is from T0 to
T511, and T0+10-1=T9 which does not exceed the range, TR_ChkBit is ON.
7. When chkCR is ON, the actual device represented by C511. Since the legal range of devices is from C0 to C511,
and C511+10-1=C520 which exceeds the range, CR_ChkBit is OFF.
8. When chkHCR is ON, the actual device represented by HC50 is VarHCR1. Since the legal range of deices is from
HC0 to HC255, and HC50+10-1=HC59 which does not exceed the range, HCR_ChkBit is ON.
6_
Additional remarks
1. If the value (the actual device address) in S exceeds the device range, the CHKADR instruction is not executed,
SM is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
2. If the value in the operand n is not between 1–1024, the CHKADR instruction is not executed, SM is ON, and the
error code in SR0 is 16#200B.

Explanation
1. This instruction adds the binary value in S2 to the binary value in S1, and stores the sum in D.
2. Only the 32-bit instructions can use the 32-bit counter, but not the device E.
3. Instruction flags: SM600 (zero flag), SM601 (borrow flag), and SM602 (carry flag)
4. When the operation result is zero, SM600 is ON. Otherwise, it is OFF.
5. For 16-bit binary values, when the operation result exceeds the range of 16-bit binary values, SM602 is ON.
Otherwise, it is OFF.
6. For 32-bit binary values, when the operation result exceeds the range of 32-bit binary values, SM602 is ON.
Otherwise, it is OFF.
6-47
Example 1
Adding 16-bit binary values: when X0.0 is ON, the instruction adds the addend in D10 to the augend in D0, and stores
the sum in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 100 and 10 respectively, D0 plus D10 equals 110, and 110 is stored in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 16#7FFF and 16#1 respectively, D0 plus D10 equals 16#8000, and 16#8000
is stored in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 16#FFFF and 16#1 respectively, D0 plus D10 equals 16#10000. Since the
operation result exceeds the range of 16-bit binary values, SM602 is ON, and the value stored in D20 is 16#0.
Since the operation result is 16#0, SM600 is ON.
Example 2
_6
Adding 32-bit binary values: when X0.0 is ON, the instruction adds the addend in (D41, D40) to the augend in (D31,
D30), and stores the sum in (D51, D50). The data in D30, D40, and D50 is the lower 16-bit data, whereas the data in
D31, D41, and D51 is the higher 16-bit data.
 When the values in (D31, D30) and (D41, D40) are 11111111 and 44444444 respectively, (D31, D30) plus (D41,
D40) equals 55555555, and 55555555 is stored in (D51, D50).
 When the values in (D31, D30) and (D41, D40) are 16#80000000 and 16#FFFFFFFF respectively, (D31, D30) plus
(D41, D40) equals 16#17FFFFFFF. Since the operation result exceeds the range of 32-bit binary values, SM602 is
ON, and the value stored in (D51, D50) is 16#7FFFFFFF.
6-48
Flags
For 16-bit binary values:
1. If the operation result is zero, SM600 is ON.
2. If the operation result exceeds 65,535, SM602 is ON.
For 32-bit values:
1. If the operation result is zero, SM600 is set to ON.
2. If the operation result exceeds 4,294,967,295, SM602 is set to ON.

5. When borrowing occurs during the arithmetic, SM601 is ON. Otherwise, it is OFF.
6-50
Example 1
Subtracting 16-bit binary values: when X0.0 is ON, the instruction subtracts the subtrahend in D10 from the minuend in
D0, and stores the difference in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 100 and 10 respectively, D0 minus D10 leaves 90, and 90 is stored in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 16#8000 and 16#1 respectively, D0 minus D10 leaves 16#7FFF, and
16#7FFF is stored in D20.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 16#1 and 16#2 respectively, D0 minus D10 leaves 16#FFFF. Since borrowing
occurs during the operation, SM601 is ON, and the value stored in D20 is 16#FFFF.
 When the values in D0 and D10 are 16#0 and 16#FFFF respectively, D0 minus D10 leaves 16#F0001. Since
borrowing occurs during the operation, SM601 is ON, and the value stored in D20 is 16#1.

(D31, D30), and stores the sum in (D51, D50). The data in D30, D40, and D50 is the lower 16-bit data, whereas the data
in D31, D41, and D51 is the higher 16-bit data.
 When the values in (D31, D30) and (D41, D40) are 55555555 and 11111111 respectively, (D31, D30) minus (D41,
D40) D10 leaves 44444444, and 44444444 is stored in (D51, D50).
 When the values in (D31, D30) and (D41, D40) are 16#80000000 and 16#FFFFFFFF respectively, (D31, D30)
minus (D41, D40) leaves 16#F80000001. Since borrowing occurs during the operation, SM601 is ON, and the
value stored in (D51, D50) is 16#80000001.

Explanation
1. This instruction multiplies the signed binary value in S1 by the signed binary value in S2, and stores the product in
D.
2. Only the instruction D* can use the 32-bit counter.
3. Multiplying 16-bit binary values:
S1 S2 D +1 D
b15..............b0 b15..............b0 b31.........b16 b15...........b0
b15 is the si gn bit.

* b15 is the si gn bit.= b31, i.e. b15 in D+ 1, is the sign bit.
The product is a 32-bit value, and is stored in the register (D+1, D), which is composed of 32 bits. When the sign
bit b31 is 0, the product is a positive value. When the sign bit b31 is 1, the product is a negative value.

4. Multiplying 32-bit binary values:
S 1 +1 S1 S 2 +1 S2 D +3 D +2 D +1 D
b31...b16 b15...b0 b31...b16 b15...b0 b63...b48 b47...b32 b31...b16 b15...b0
* =
b31 is the si gn bit. b31 is the si gn bit. b63, i.e. b15 in D+3, is the sign bit.
The product is a 64-bit value, and is stored in the register (D+3, D+2, D+1, D0), which is composed of 64 bits.
When the sign bit b63 is 0, the product is a positive value. When the sign bit b63 is 1, the product is a negative
value.
Example
The instruction multiplies the 16-bit value in D0 by the 16-bit value in D10, and stores the 32-bit product in (D21, D20).
The data in D21 is the higher 16-bit data, whereas the data in D20 is the lower 16-bit data. Whether the result is a
positive value or a negative value depends on the state of the highest bit b31. When b31 is OFF, the result is a positive
value. When b31 is ON, the result is a negative value.

Explanation
1. This instruction multiplies the signed binary value in S1 by the signed binary value in S2, and stores the product in D.
2. Only the MUL32 instruction can use an HC device.
3. 16-bit binary multiplication:
S1 S2 D
b15..............b0 b15..............b0 b15..............b0
* =
Bit 15 is a sign bit. Bit 15 is a sign bit. Bit 15 is a sign bit.
The product is a 16-bit value stored in D which is a 16-bit register. If b15 in D is 0, the product stored in D is a positive
value. If b15 in D is 1, the product stored in D is a negative value.
6-74
4. 32-bit binary multiplication:
S 1 +1 S1 S 2 +1 S2 D +1 D
b31...b16 b15...b0 b31...b16 b15...b0 b31...b16 b15...b0
* Bit 31 is a si gn bit.= Bit 31 is a si gn bit.

Bit 31 is a si gn bit.
The product is a 32-bit value stored in (D, D+1) which is a 32-bit register. If b31 in D is 0, the product stored in (D, D+1) is
a positive value. If b31 in D is 1, the product stored in (D, D+1) is a negative value.
Example
The instruction multiplies the 16-bit value in D0 by the 16-bit value in D10, and stores the product in D20. The sign of the
product (positive or negative) depends on the leftmost bit (bit 15) in D20. If bit 15 in D20 is 0, the product stored in D20 is
a positive value. If bit 15 in D20 is 1, the product stored in D20 is a negative value.
6_
D0×D10=D20
16-bit value×16-bit value=16-bit value
Additional remarks
1. If the product of a 16-bit multiplication is not a 16-bit signed value available, and is greater than the maximum 16-bit
positive number K32767, or less than the minimum negative number K-32768, the carry flag SM602 is ON, and only
the low 16 bits are written.
2. If you need the complete result of a 16-bit multiplication (a 32-bit value), use the */*P instruction (API 0102). Refer to
the explanation for the * instruction (API 0102) for more information.
3. If the product of a 32-bit multiplication is not a 32-bit signed value available, and is greater than the maximum 32-bit
positive number K2147483647, or less than the minimum negative number K-2147483648, the carry flag SM602 is
ON, and only the low 32 bits are written.
4. If you need the complete result of a 32-bit multiplication (a 64-bit value), use API 0102 D*/D*P. Refer to the

Explanation
1. This instruction converts a binary value in S into a binary-coded decimal value, and stores the conversion result in
D.
2. Only the DBCD instruction can use the 32-bit counter, but not the device E.
3. The four fundamental arithmetic operations in the PLC, the INC instruction, and the DEC instruction all operate on
binary numbers. To show the decimal value on the display, use the BCD instruction to convert a binary value into a
binary-coded decimal value
6-79
Example
1. When X0.0 is ON, the instruction converts a binary value in D10 into a binary-code decimal value, and stores the
conversion result in D100.
2. If D10=16#04D2=1234, the conversion result is D100=16#1234.
Additional remarks
1. If the conversion result exceeds the range 0–9,999, the instruction BCD is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error
code in SR0 is 16#200D. The binary-coded decimal value is represented by the hexadecimal value, but one of
digits is not between 0–9.
2. If the conversion result exceeds the range 0–99,999,999, the instruction DBCD is not executed, SM0 is ON, and
the error code in SR0 is 16#200D. The binary-coded decimal value is represented by the hexadecimal value, but
one of digits is not between 0–9.

Explanation
1. This instruction converts a binary-coded decimal value in S into a binary value, and stores the conversion result in 6_
D.
2. The 16-bit binary-coded decimal value in S must be between 0–9,999, and the 32-bit binary-coded decimal value
in S must be between 0–99,999,999.
4. The system converts constants and hexadecimal values into binary values automatically. Therefore, you do not
need to use the instruction for that conversion.
Example
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction converts the binary-coded decimal value in D0 into the binary value, and stores the
conversion result in D10.
6-81
Additional remarks
1. If the value in S is not the binary-coded decimal value, an operation error occurs, SM0 is ON, and the error code in
SR0 is 16#200D. The binary-coded decimal value is represented by the hexadecimal value, but one of digits is not
between 0–9.
2. Application of the BCD and BIN instructions:
 Before the value of the binary-coded decimal type of DIP switch is read into the PLC, use the BIN instruction
to convert the data into the binary value and store the conversion result in the PLC.
 If you want to display the data stored inside the PLC in a seven-segment display of the binary-coded decimal
type, use the BCD instruction to convert the data into the binary-coded decimal value before the data is sent
to the seven-segment display.
 When X1.0 is ON, the BIN instruction converts the binary-coded decimal value in X0.0–X0.15 into the binary
value, and stores the conversion result in D100. Subsequently, the BCD instruction converts the binary value
in D100 into the binary-coded decimal value, and stores the conversion result in Y0.0–Y0.15.

Explanation
1. This instruction converts a negative binary value into the two’s compliment.
2. Only the DNEG instruction can use the 32-bit counter. 6_

3. Generally, you use the NEGP and DNEGP pulse instructions.
Example 1
When X0.0 is switched from OFF to ON, this instruction inverts all bits in D0 (0 becomes 1, and 1 becomes 0), and 1 is
added to the result, and then stores the final value in the original register D10.
6-95
Example 2
Finding the two’s compliment of the negative value:
1. When the value of the 15th bit in D0 is 1, M0 is ON, and the value in D0 is a negative value.
2. When M0 is ON, the NEG instruction finds the two’s complement of the negative value in D0 (the corresponding
positive value).
Example 3
Finding the two’s compliment of the difference between two values:
_6
When X0.0 is ON,
1. If the value in D0 is greater than that in D2, M0 is ON.
2. If the value in D0 is equal to that in D2, M1 is ON.
3. If the value in D0 is less than that in D2, M2 is ON.
4. The value in D4 is a positive value.

1. Whether the data is a positive value or a negative value depends on the value of the highest bit in the register. If
the highest bit in the register is 0, the data is a positive value. If the highest bit is 1, the data is a negative value.
2. You can convert the negative value into its absolute value with the instruction NEG.

This instruction reverses the sign of a single-precision floating-point number in D.
Example
Before the instruction is executed, the value in (D1, D0) is the negative value 16#AE0F9000. When X0.0 switches from

point numbers are from -41 to +35. The practical range of decimal floating-point numbers in the PLC is between
±1175×10-41 and ±3402×10+35. When the operation result is zero, SM600 is ON.

Explanation
1. This instruction finds a scaled linear value for the number in S1 using the slope of the line in S2 and the offset in S3
to define the scaling factor, and stores the result in D.
2. The operation equation in the instruction is D=(S1×S2)÷1,000+S3
3. To get the values in S2 and S3, use the slope equation and the offset equation below first, and then round off the
results to the nearest whole digit. Enter the final 16-bit values into S2 and S3.
The slope equation: S2=[(Maximum destination value–Minimum destination value)÷(Maximum source value–
Minimum source value)]×1,000
The offset equation: S3=Minimum destination value–Minimum source value×S2÷1,000
6-107
The output curve is shown below:
Example 1
1. Suppose the values in S1, S2, and S3 are 500, 168, and -4 respectively. When X0.0 is ON, the SCAL instruction
calculates the scaled value, and stores the scaled value in D0.

calculates the scaled value, and stores the scaled value in D10.
2. For the equation: D10=(500×-168)÷1,000+534=450
6_
Additional remarks
1. You must know the slope and the offset to use SCAL. If the slope and the offset are unknown, you can use the
SCLP instruction.
2. When the 16-bit instruction is performed, the value entered into S2 must be between –32,768 to 32,767. If the
value in S2 exceeds the range, use the SCLP instruction.
3. When the 32-bit instruction is performed, the value entered into S2 must be between -2,147,483,648 to
2,147,483,647. If the value in S2 exceeds the range, use the SCLP instruction.
4. When you use the slope equation, note that the maximum source value should be larger than the minimum source
value. However, the maximum destination value is not necessarily larger than the minimum destination value.
5. For the 16-bit instruction, if the value in D is larger than 32,767, the value stored in D is 32,767. If the value in D is
less than -32,768, the value stored in D is -32,768.
6. When the 32-bit instruction is performed, if the value in D is larger than 2,147,483,647, the value stored in D will be
2,147,483,6477. If the value in D is less than -2,147,483,648, the value stored in D will be -2,147,483,648.

S2+3 Minimum destination value -32,768 to 32,767
5. The operand S2 used in the 16-bit instruction occupies four devices.
6. The operand S2 used in the 32-bit instruction is set as shown in the following table.

7. The operand S2 used in the 32-bit instruction occupies eight devices. 6_

8. If the values in the 32-bit instruction are floating-point numbers, set SM658 to ON. If the values are decimal
integers, set SM685 to OFF.
9. The operation equation in the instruction is:

D = [(S1–Minimum source value)×(Maximum destination value–Minimum destination value)]÷(Maximum source
value)+Minimum destination value
10. The operational relation between the source value and the destination value is:
y = kx+b
y=Destination value (D)
k=Slope=(Maximum destination value–Minimum destination value)÷(Maximum source value–Minimum source
value)
x=Source value (S1)
b=Offset =Minimum destination value–Minimum source value×Slope
6 - 111
The parameters above are substituted for y, k, x, and b in the equation y = kx+b to get the operation equation as
follows:
y=kx+b=D=kS1+b=Slope×S1＋Offset＝Slope×S1＋Minimum destination value–Minimum source
value×Slope=Slope×(S1–Minimum source value)＋Minimum destination value =(S1–Minimum source

value)×(Maximum destination value–Minimum destination value)÷(Maximum source value–Minimum source value)
＋Minimum destination value
11. If S1 is larger than the maximum source value, the maximum source value is the value in S1. If S1 is less than the
minimum source value, the minimum source value is the value in S1. The output curve is shown below.
_6
Example 1
1. Suppose the value in S1 is 500, the maximum source value in D0 is 3,000, the minimum source value in D1 is 200,
the maximum destination value in D2 is 500, and the minimum destination value in D3 is 30. When X0.0 is ON, the
SCLP instruction calculates the scale value and stores it in D10.
2. The operation equation: D10=[(500–200)×(500–30)]÷(3,000–200)+30=80.35
80.35 is rounded off to the nearest whole digit, and becomes 80. 80 is stored in D10.

2. The operation equation: D10=[(500–200)×(30–500)]÷(3,000–200)+500=449.64

is ON, SM685 is set to ON, the instruction DSCLP calculates the scale value and stores it in D10.
2. The operation equation: D10=[(500.0–200.0)×(500.0–30.0)]÷(3000.0–200.0)+30.0=80.35
80.35 is rounded off to the nearest whole digit, and becomes 80.0. 80.0 is stored in D10.

Additional remarks
1. The value in S1 for 16-bit instructions must be between the minimum source value and the maximum source value;
that is, between -32,768 to 32,767. If the value exceeds the boundary value, the calculation uses the boundary
value.
2. The integer in S1 for 32-bit instructions must be between the minimum source value and the maximum source
value; that is, between -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647. If the integer exceeds the boundary value, the calculation
uses the boundary value.
6 - 11 5
3. The floating-point number in S1 for 32-bit instructions must be between the minimum source value and the
maximum source value; that is, within the range of floating-point numbers. If the floating-point number exceeds the
boundary value, the calculation uses the boundary value.
4. Note that the maximum source value must be larger than the minimum source value. However, the maximum
destination value is not necessarily larger than the minimum destination value.
5. When the maximum source value is the same as the minimum source value, the instruction is be executed, SM0 is
ON and the error code in SR0 is 16#2012.
6. If you declare S2 for a 16-bit instruction in ISPSoft, the data type is ARRAY [4] of WORD.

Explanation
1. Only the 32-bit instruction can use HC devices but not E devices. The firmware of V1.04.00 and later for AS300 PLC
supports the instruction.
2. See the following table about data types that the operands S1, S3 and S4 correspond to. ( represents ‘Usable’. X
_6 represents ‘Unusable’.)

K  X 
16#  X 
F X  X
Note: SM685=ON (the floating point number operation) works for the 32-bit instruction only.
3. S1 is the data source. S2 is the number of multi-point areas and the value should be between 2 and 50. If the value
exceeds the range, the instruction will be executed automatically at the minimum value or maximum value. S3 is a
setting value for comparison in a multi-point area. S4 is a conversion reference value that a multi-point area
comparison value corresponds to, e.g. the number of areas, S2 is 10. Then S3 ~ S3+9 are comparison values in 10
areas. S4 ~ S4+9 are 10 corresponding conversion reference values.
4. The comparison order for multi-point areas is 0, 1, 2 …S2 –1. The comparison rule is S1 >= S3+0 and S1 < S3+1. If S1
value does not belong to an area, the comparison will move on to the next area. For example, S1 >= S3+1 and S1 <
S3+2, the comparison keeps going until the number of comparison times reaches S2 – 1.
6 - 11 8
5. The instruction compares areas in the order from small to large. Please design the value comparison of S3 area in
the order from small to large as well.
6. See the figure below for the conversion of multi-point area values. (Set the number of areas, S2 to 4.)

S3

7. If S1 value is between S3+0 and S3+1, the conversion formula: D =﹝ ( S1 – S3+0) x ( S4+1 – S4+0 ) / ( S3+1 –
S3+0 ) ﹞+ S4+0.
8. If S1 value does not belong to any specified area, the execution result in D is explained as below.
If S1 value > the last specified area, D will store the last conversion reference value of S4, e.g. if S1 value > S3+3 6_
value in the figure above, D=S4+3.
If S1 value < the first specified area, D will store the first conversion reference value of S4, e.g. if S1 value < S3+0
value in the figure above, D=S4+0.
9. If S3 and S4 of the16-bit instruction are declared on ISPSoft, the data type is ARRAY [S2] of WORD.
10. If S3 and S4 of the 32-bit instruction are declared on ISPSoft, the data type is ARRAY [S2] of DWORD (SM685=OFF)
or ARRAY [S2] of REAL (SM685=ON).
6 - 11 9
Example
The comparison values of S3 for multi-point areas are given as follows.

Device D100 D101 D102 D103
Content 100 200 300 400
The corresponding conversion reference values of S4 are given as follows.
Device D200 D201 D202 D203
Content 4000 3000 1500 2000
Here is the explanation about the value in D2 obtained through a conversion based on the data resource D0.
Set D0=10,
Since D0<D100 (in the first area), D2=D200=4000 (the first conversion reference value)
Set D0=K150,
D0 value is in between (D100, D101) = (100, 200) and the corresponding reference value is (D200, D201) =
(4000, 3000)
Therefore,
D2= (150-100)* (3000-4000) / (200-100) +4000=3500
Set D0=450
Since D0>D103 (in the last area), D2=D203=2000 (the last conversion reference value)
_6 Set D0=K250
D0 value is between (D101, D102) = (200, 300) and the corresponding reference value is (D201, D202) =
(3000, 1500).
Therefore,
D2= (250-200) *(1500-3000) / (300-200) +3000=2250
Set D0=K350
D0 is between (D102, D103) = (300, 400) and the corresponding reference value is (D202, D203) = (1500,
2000)
Therefore,
D2= (350-300) * (2000-1500) / (400-300) +1500=1750

Explanation
1. This instruction transfers the data in S to D.
2. You must use a 32-bit instruction when the data in S is a floating-point number.
Example
1. To transfer 16-bit data, use MOV.
 When X0.0 is OFF, the data in D0 is unchanged. When X0.0 is ON, the instruction transfers 10 to the data
register D0.
 When X0.1 is OFF, the data in D10 is unchanged. When X0.1 is ON, the instruction transfers the current
value of T0 to the data register D10.
6-122
2. For 32-bit data, use DMOV.
 When X0.2 is OFF, the data in (D31, D30) and (D41, D40) is unchanged. When X0.2 is ON, the instruction
transfers the current value in (D21, D20) to (D31, D30), and transfers the current value of HC0 to (D41,
D40).
3. For floating-point numbers, use DMOV.
 When X0.3 is OFF, the data in (D51, D50) is unchanged. When X0.3 is ON, the instruction converts the
floating-point number 3.450 into a binary floating-point number, and transfers the conversion result is to
(D51, D50).

S ： Data source
Explanation
1. This instruction transfers the string in S to D, and adds the code 16#00 to the end of the string.
_6 2. When the operand S is not a string, the instruction adds the code 16#00 to the end of the data transferred.
3. When the ending code16#00 cannot be found in S for 256 characters in a row or even beyond the device range,
the instruction is not executed; SM0 is ON and the error code in SR0 is 16#200E.
4. When the operand S is not a string and the instruction is executed, the string starting with the data in the device
specified by S (including 16#00) is transferred to D. When the instruction is not executed, the data in D is
unchanged.
5. If D is not sufficient to contain the string composed of the values in S, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON,
and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
6. Suppose the operand S is not a string. When the instruction is executed and the first character in S is the code
16#00, 16#00 is still transferred to D.
6-124
7. When 16#00 appears in the low byte, the execution of the instruction is as follows.
Before the instr uction is executed:

8. When 16#00 appears in the high byte, the execution of the instruction is as follows. The transfer stops when the
code 16#00, leaving the remainder of D unchanged.
Before the instr uction is executed:

S ： Jump destination
Explanation
1. This instruction jumps from the current program execution to a label (destination) in a different part of the program
in the PLC. You specify the label (pointer) in S. You can use the CJ or CJP instruction to shorten the scan time. You
_6
can also use the CJ or CJP instruction when using a dual output.
2. If the program specified by the jump destination (label) is prior to the CJ instruction, the watchdog timer error
occurs, and the PLC stops running the program. Use this instruction carefully.
3. You can specify the same label repeatedly with the multiple different CJ instructions.
4. When the instruction is executed, the actions of the devices are as described below.
 The state of Y, the state of M, and the state of S remain the same as before the execution of the jump.
 The timer keeps counting and when it reaches the time setting value, the program drives the output T-coil.
 For more information on the MC and MCR instructions, refer to Example 2 below.
 The general applied instructions are not executed.
Example 1
1. When X0.0 is ON, the program execution jumps from NETWORK 1 to LABEL1 (NETWORK 3) and skips
NETWORK 2.
6-150
2. When X0.0 is OFF, the execution of the program goes from NETWORK 1 to NETWORK 2 to NETWORK 3 in
sequence, and the CJ instruction is not executed.
Example 2
1. You can use the CJ instruction between the MC and the MCR instructions in the five conditions below.
(a) The execution of the program jumps from the part of the program outside one MC/MCR loop to the part of
the program outside another MC/MCR loop.
(b) The execution of the program jumps from the part of the program outside the MC/MCR loop to the part of the
program inside the MC/MCR loop.

6_
(c) The execution of the program jumps from the part of the program inside the MC/MCR loop to the part of the
program inside the MC/MCR loop.
(d) The execution of the program jumps from the part of the program inside the MC/MCR loop to the part of the
program outside the MC/MCR loop.
(e) The execution of the program jumps from the part of the program inside one the MC/MCR loop to the part of
the program inside another the MC/MCR loop.
2. When the PLC executes an MC instruction, it puts the previous state of the switch contact onto the top of the stack
inside the PLC. The stack is controlled by the PLC, and cannot be changed. When the PLC executes the MCR
instruction, the PLC pops the previous state of the switch contact from the top of the stack. Under the conditions
listed in (b), (d), and (e) above, the number of times the items are pushed onto the stack may be different from the
number of times the items are popped from the stack. When this situation occurs, at most 32 items can be pushed
onto the stack; items can be popped from the stack until the stack is empty. Therefore, when you use CJ or CJP
with MC and MCR, be careful of how the program pushes items onto the stack and pops items from the stack.

6-159
0501 EI － Enabling the interrupt function

－ AS －
Symbol
Explanation
1. Use the EI instruction to enable interrupt tasks in a program (refer to next page for more information on tasks).
2. You can use the interrupt task between the EI instruction and the DI instruction in a program. You can choose not
to use the DI instruction when there is no part of the program in which the interrupt is disabled.
3. During the execution of one interrupt task, a new interrupt generated is not executed, but is stored. After the
execution of the present interrupt task is complete, the next interrupt task is executed. For example, during the
execution of I0 (by trigged order #1), 2 new I0s (by trigged order #2, by trigged order #3) are generated, only by
trigged order #2 I0 will be stored for later execution. by trigged order #3 IO is not stored for execution.
4. When several interrupts occur, the interrupt task with the highest priority is executed first. When several interrupts
_6 occur simultaneously, the interrupt task with the smallest pointer number is executed first.
5. When the interrupt task occurs between DI and EI, it cannot be executed, and the interrupt request is ignored. It is
suggested that you not use the instruction DI to disable interrupts while PLC is running.
6. When the immediate I/O signal is required in the execution of the interrupt task, you can use the REF instruction or
the device DX/DY in the program to refresh the state of the I/O.
7. Every interrupt number has a temporary function that can be masked. See below for the list of interrupt numbers.
6-160
Example:
 Set up the timed I601 interrupt task to 500ms in HWCONFIG in ISPSoft.
 When the PLC runs the program Cyclic_0, it scans the EI instruction, enables interrupt tasks, and then executes
the I601 interrupt task. When the interrupt task execution is complete, the main program is executed.
 When M0 is ON, the I601 timer interrupt task is disabled.
 When M1 is ON, the I601 timer interrupt task is enabled.
 When M2 is ON, the SR632 is 0 and the I601 timer interrupt task is disabled.
 When M3 is ON, the SR632 is 1 and the I601 timer interrupt task is enabled.

Additional remarks
There are 7 types of interrupt tasks:
1. External interrupts (I000–I115)
I000 specifies that the input X0.0 is falling edge triggered.
I100 specifies that the input X0.0 is rising edge triggered.
I001 specifies that the input X0.1 is falling edge triggered.

_6
I101 specifies that the input X0.1 is rising edge triggered.
The rest can be done in the same manner.
2. Hardware high-speed comparison interrupts (I200–I253)
This type of interrupts can be further divided into 6 groups. Each group corresponds to a hardware high-speed
counter (refer to the DCNT instruction API 1003 for more information). Each group has with 4 interrupt numbers (refer
to the DHSCS instruction API 1005 for more information). For example, the interrupt numbers for the first group are
I200–I203, and for the second group are I210–I213.
3. Software high-speed comparison interrupts (I260–I267)
There are 8 interrupts for software high-speed comparisons and these 8 interrupts are shared with 8 high-speed
counters.
4. Communication interrupts
You can use the communication interrupt as the RS instruction; that is, receiving a specific character triggers the
interrupt, or you can use it as a general interrupt. Refer to the COMRS instruction (API1812) for more information.
6-162
COM1: I300
COM2: I302
Card 1: I304
Card 2: I306
5. Extension module interrupts (I400–I431)
Each module has one interrupt. You can set up 1 interrupt service for each extension module.
6. High-speed output interrupts (I500–I519)
When the pulse output is complete, the interrupt request is sent. The interrupts (I500–I505) for the completing the
execution of the positioning instruction work with special devices (SM) to activate the interrupt service. For example,
when the DDRVI instruction completes the execution of the first axis, the interrupt request I500 is sent; you can set
SM471 to ON to activate the interrupt service. The interrupts (I510–I519) for the completing the execution of the
position planning table instruction work with the TPO instruction. When the pulse output is complete, the interrupt
request is sent.
7. Timer interrupts (I601–I604)
Set the timer interrupts set in HWCONFIG.
6_
For the timer interrupts I601–I603: The default value is 10 milliseconds (unit: 1ms) (1–2000 milliseconds).
For the timer interrupts I604: The default value is 1 milliseconds (unit: 0.1ms) (0.1–200 milliseconds).

Note: When several interrupts occur simultaneously, the interrupt task whose pointer number is smallest is executed
first. The PLC completes the on-going interrupt, and then execute other interrupts according to their pointer numbers.

interrupt (smaller pointer number) after executing the I400 interrupt.

D ： I/O point state to refresh
n ： Number of I/O points states to refresh
_6 Explanation
1. The I/O states are normally not refreshed until the PLC executes the END instruction. When the PLC starts
scanning the program, it reads and stores the states of the external inputs in memory. After executing the END
instruction, the PLC sends the states of the outputs in the memory to the output terminals. Therefore, when you
need the latest I/O data during the operation process, you can use this instruction, or use the device DX/DY to
refresh the input/output.
2. The operand n must be multiples of eight, such as 8, 16, 24 and up to 256. If the value here is less than a multiple
of eight, it will be seen as the next multiple of eight. For example, the value 20 will be seen as its next multiple of
eight, 24.
3. The number of the high-speed output point is stored in D device for firmware version 1.04.00 and later. If n is 1, it
indicates to refresh the high-speed output value of the corresponding SR immediately. If n is 0, it indicates to stop
high-speed output and refresh the SR current value. For example, during the execution of this instruction, if n is 0
and the external interrupt input is received through X0.0, it indicates an external interrupt occurs in X0.0 and high-
speed outputting through Y0.0 should be stopped immediately. The PLC sets the stop flag SM463 to ON and
refresh the current corresponding output position in SR. Note: if the output completion auto-reset flag is set to ON,
6-172
the PLC sets the output completion auto-rest flag to OFF and refresh the current corresponding output position in
SR. But the PLC does not set the stop flag SM463 to ON.

input signal comes too fast. In this event, users can use the instruction to assign the new comparative value to the
hardware comparator in the PLC and achieve the real-time comparison.
2. S is the No of the specified high-speed counter to be refreshed. S1 has the same component or variable name as
that in the DHSCS or DHSCR instruction and the immediate value can not be set for S1. If S1 does not have the
same operand as that in the high-speed comparison instruction which has been enabled, the instruction execution
will not take effect.
3. Only the firmware of V1.04.00 and later supports the instruction.

Example
1. As PLC runs, the comparative value in DHSCS instruction is 5000.
2. When the X0.0 external interrupt occurs, the comparative value in DHSCS is set to 8000 immediately.
Main program:
X0.0 external interrupt program:
Assign the new comparative value to the same variable (E.g. D10 in the example) first and then execute DHSRF

Filter ： Filtering time to refresh (unit: µs)
Explanation
1. This instruction works only with AS series (FWV1.06.00) and ISPSoft V3.06 or later versions.
2. Xno is the starting input number to refresh. Length is the length to refresh. If the X point is the built-in input point of
a CPU, when Xno is X0.3, the value of Length is 3, after executing the REFF instruction, the input filtering time of
X0.3 ~ X0.5 are refreshed.
Since X input point of the extension module is grouping in 8 for a unit, when Xno is X1.9 and the value of Length
is 3, after executing the REFF instruction, the input filtering time of X1.8 ~ X1.15 are refreshed. When Xno is 1.3,
and the value of Length is 3, after executing the REFF instruction, the input filtering time of X1.0 ~ X1.7 are
refreshed. When Xno is X1.3 and the value of Length is 9, the input filtering time of X1.0 ~ X1.15 are refreshed.
3. Xno and Length should be set in the input of PLC input system. If the setting exceeds the range, even if you have
executed REFF instruction, the I/O will NOT be refreshed and error message will NOT be shown.
4. If the X point is the built-in input point of a CPU, the filtering time unit is µs. While if the X point is the input point of
6-177
the extension module, the filtering time unit is ms. This instruction is for refreshing the current filtering time; filtering
time set in HWCONFIG will NOT be affected. But when the value of Filter in the instruction exceeds the setting
range in HWCONFIG, PLC treats the value of Filter as the maximum or the minimum value set in HWCONFIG.
5. When power-on, the filtering time of the CPU and the extension module is refreshed according to the filtering time
set in HWCONFIG.
6. The REFF instruction refreshes the filtering time only at its first execution.

Explanation
1. This instruction uses seconds as the unit of time. The time for which a button switch has been turned ON is
multiplied by n, and the product is stored in D. D+1 is for system use only. When the instruction is executed, the
value in D+1 cannot be altered. Otherwise, the time is counted incorrectly.

2. When the conditional contact is ON, D is reset to 0.
3. Setting the multiplier: when n is 0, D uses a second as the timing unit. When n is 1, the time for which the button
switch has been turned ON is multiplied by 10, and D uses 100 milliseconds as the timing unit. When n is 2, the
time for which the button switch has been turned ON is multiplied by 100, and D uses 10 milliseconds as the timing
unit. The greater the value in n, the higher the timing resolution.

S1 ： Initial value of the ramp signal
S2 ： Final value of the ramp signal
D ： Duration of the ramp signal 6_

n ： Number of scan cycles
Explanation
1. This instruction gets the linear slope, which has an absolute relationship with the scan time. Therefore it is
suggested that you set a fixed scan time or write this instruction in a timer interrupt task.
2. You write the initial value and final value of the ramp signal into S1 and S2 respectively in advance. When X0.0 is
ON, D increases from the setting value in S1 to the setting value in S2. The number of scan cycles is stored in D+1.
When the value in D is equal to that in S2, or when the value in D+1 is equal to n (to the number of scan cycles),
then SM687 is ON.
3. When the conditional contact is not enabled, the value in D, and D+1 are both 0, and SM687 is OFF.
4. When using on-line editing, Reset the conditional contact to initialize the instruction.
5. Refer to the ISPSoft User Manual for more information on setting a fixed scan time.
6. The value of n must be between 1–32767. When n is out of range, this instruction is not executed.
6-187
8. Use the SM686 flag to reset the value in D to 0. Refer to the examples below for details.
Example
When you use the instruction with an analog signal output, it acts to cushion the starting and stopping of the machinery.
1. During execution, when X0.0 switches to OFF, the execution of the instruction stops. When X0.0 switches to ON
again, SM687 is OFF, D12 is reset to the setting value in D10, D13 is reset to 0, and the ramp calculation is
restarted.
2. During execution, SM686 is OFF, and when D12 reaches the setting value in D11, SM687 switches to ON as a
scan cycle. When D12 resets to the setting value in D10, D13 resets to 0.

matrix scan
n ： Number of rows to scan
Explanation
1. This instruction scans and stores the states of eight sequential input devices. S specifies the first input device in
the matrix scan.
2. D1 specifies the transistor output device Y as the first device in the matrix scan. When the conditional contact is
OFF, the states of the n devices starting from D1 are OFF.
3. One row of inputs is refreshed every scan cycle. There are 16 inputs in a row, and the scan starts from the first row
and goes to the nth row.
4. The eight input devices starting from the device specified by S are connected to the n output devices starting from
the device specified by D1 to form the n rows of switches. The matrix scan reads the states of the n rows of
switches, and stores the states in the devices starting from the device specified by D2.
5. You can connect up to 8 rows of input switches in parallel to get 64 inputs (8×8=64).
6. The interval between executions of this instruction should be longer than the time it takes for the states of the I/O
points on the module to be refreshed. Otherwise, the instruction cannot read the correct states of the inputs. See
6-190
Additional remarks, below.
7. In general, the conditional contact used in the instruction is SM400: the flag is always ON when CPU runs.
Example 1
1. When M0 is ON, the MTR instruction is executed. The instruction reads the states of the two rows of switches in
order, and stores them in the internal relays M10–M17 and M20–M27 respectively.
2. The diagram below is the external wiring diagram of the 2-by-8 matrix input circuit for X0.0–X0.7 and Y0.0–Y0.1.
The corresponding internal relays of the 16 switches are M10–M17 and M20–M27.

3. The instruction connects eight input devices starting from X0.0 to the two output devices starting from Y0.0 to form
the two rows of switches. The matrix scan reads the states of the two rows of switches, and stores the states in the
devices starting from M10 (specified by D2). That is, it stores the states of the first row of switches in M10–M17,
and stores the states of the second row of switches in M20–M27.

Additional remarks
1. When this instruction is executed, a cycle time that is too long or a too short causes the state of the switches to be
read incorrectly. Use the following tips to solve this issue.
 When the scan cycle is too short, the I/O may not be able to respond in time and the correct states of the
inputs cannot be read. You can set a fixed scan time to solve this issue.
 When the scan cycle is too long, the switch may be slow to react. You can write this instruction in a timer
interrupt task to set a fixed time to execute this instruction.
2. If S+7, D1+n-1, or D2+(n*8)-1 exceeds the device range, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error

2. Only the DABSD instruction can use the 32-Bit counter, but not the device E.
3. When using the ABSD instruction, n must be between 1–256.
Example 1
1. Before the ABSD instruction is executed, the MOV instruction writes the setting values in D100–D107. The values
in the even devices are minimum values, and the values in the odd devices are maximum values.
2. When X0.0 is ON, the instruction compares the current value of the counter C10 with the maximum values and the
minimum values in D100–D107, and stores the comparison results in M10–M13.
3. When X0.0 is OFF, the original states of M10–M13 are unchanged.
6-193
4. When the current value of C10 is between the minimum value and the maximum value, M10–M13 are ON.
Otherwise, M10–M13 are OFF.

5. Suppose the minimum value is larger than the maximum value. When the current value of C10 is less than the
maximum value (C10＜60), or when the current value of C10 is larger than the minimum value (C10＞140), M12 is
ON. Otherwise, M12 is OFF.

Explanation
1. This instruction generates multiple pulses for a pair of counters.
2. The instruction compares the current value of S2 with the setting value in S1. When the current value matches the
setting value, the instruction resets the current value of S2 to 0, and the stores the current comparison group
number in S2+1.
3. After the comparison between the current values of S2 and the n groups of values is complete, SM688 is ON for a

4. When the conditional contact is not enabled, the value in S2 is 0, the value in S2+1 is 0, D-D+n-1 are OFF, and
SM688 is OFF.
5. When using on-line editing, Reset the conditional contact to initialize the instruction.
6-196
Example
1. Before the INCD instruction is executed, the MOV instruction writes the setting values in D100–D104. The values
in D100–D104 are 15, 30, 10, 40, and 25 respectively.
2. The instruction compares the current values in C10 with the setting values in D100–D104. When the current value
matches the setting value, the instruction resets C10 to 0, and counts again.
3. The instruction stores the current comparison group number in C11.
4. When the value in C11 changes by one, M10–M14 act correspondingly. Referto the following timing diagram.
5. When the comparison between the current values in C10 and the values in D100–D104 is complete, SM688 is ON
for a scan cycle.
6. When X0.0 is switched from ON to OFF, C10 and C11 are reset to 0, and M10–M14 are switched OFF. When X0.0
switches to ON again, the instruction execution starts from the beginning.

Explanation
1. This instruction implements the PID algorithm. After the sampling time is reached, the instruction applies PID
algorithm. PID stands for Proportional, Integral, Derivative. The PID control is widely applied to mechanical,
pneumatic, and electronic equipment.
2. The parameter settings are listed in the following table.

0: Automatic control
When PID_MAN switches from True

the MV exceeds the limits of

MV_MAX or MV_MIN, I_MV value
stays the same and without
updating.
1: Auto tuning the parameters for the

PID_MODE DWORD/DINT PID control mode temperature control. After tuning is
done, the system is in auto control
mode (PID_MODE is set to 0) and fill
in the appropriate parameters
(Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, Td_Kd, and Tf)
2: Automatic control (including
I_MV): When PID_MAN switches
from TRUE to FALSE, the MV value
is invoke the output value (MV) in the
6-201
automatic algorithm. If the MV
exceeds the limits of MV_MAX or
MV_MIN, I_MV use the formula to
calculate the correct value and
adjust its value accordingly. This can
reduce the response time of the
reverse action.
Note: when the mode is set to 1, auto
tuning the parameter, you cannot
use numerical value to set up.
True: Manual
Output the MV according to
MOUT, but it is still between
MV_MIN and the MV_MAX. This
setting has no effect when
PID_MAN BOOL PID A/M mode PID_MODE is set to 1.

PID algorithm, and the output

MV_MAX.
True: Automatic
MOUT varies with the MV.
MOUT_AUTO BOOL MOUT automatic change mode False: Normal
MOUT does not vary with the
MV.
When the instruction
is scanned, use the
PID algorithm
according to the
1–40,000
CYCLE DWORD/DINT Sampling time (TS) sampling time, and
(unit: ms)
refresh MV. The PLC
requires that the
instruction execute; it
will not run the

less than 1, it is
counted as 1. If TS is
larger than 40,000, it
is counted as 40,000.
When using the PID
instruction in an
interval interrupt task,
the sampling time is
the same as the
interval between the
timed interrupt tasks.
The sampling cycle

1. When switching the control mode (PID_MAN=0) from automatic to manual, you can set the flag MOUT_AUTO
to 1 and the output value of MOUT goes along with the output value of MV. After switching to the manual mode
(PID_MAN=1), you can set the MOUT_AUTO to 0.
2. When PID_RUN changes from TRUE to FALSE, the PLC resets the value in MV to 0. When the value in MV is
to be retained, you can set EN to FALSE to dismiss the instruction and to keep the output value in MV.
Example 1
1. Set all parameters before executing this instruction.
2. When M0 is ON, the instruction is executed. When PID_RUN is ON, the instruction applies the DPID algorithm.
When PIC_RUN is OFF, MV is 0, and store the value in MV. When M0 switches to OFF, the instruction is not
executed, and the previous data is unchanged.

Additional remarks
1. The instruction can be used several times, but the registers specified by I_MV–I_MV+14 cannot be the same.
2. I_MV occupies 30 registers.
3. You can only use the 32-bit instruction in cyclic tasks and interval interrupt tasks. When using the 32-bit instruction
in an interval interrupt task, the sampling time (Cycle) is the same as the interval between the timed interrupt tasks.
4. When the instruction is scanned, the 32-bit PID algorithm is applied according to the sampling time (Cycle), and it
refreshes MV. When you use the instruction in an interrupt task, the sampling time (Cycle) is the same as the
6-208
interval between the timed interrupt tasks. The PID algorithm is applied according to the interval between the timed
interrupt tasks.
5. Before the 32-bit PID algorithm is applied, the process value used in the PID instruction has to be a stable value.
When you need the input value in the module to implement the DPID algorithm, must note the time it takes for the
analog input to be converted into the digital input.
6. When the PV (process value) is in the range of ERR_DBW, at the beginning, the present error is brought into the
PID algorithm according to the normal processing, and then the CPU module checks whether the present error
meets the cross status condition: PV (process value) goes beyond the SV (target value). Once the condition is met,
the present error is counted as 0 when applying the PID algorithm. After the PV (process value) is out of the
ERR_DBW range, the present error is brought into the PID algorithm again. If PID_DE is true, that means it uses
the variations in the PV to calculate the control value of the derivative, and after the cross status condition is met,
the PLC treats Δ PV as 0 to apply the PID algorithm. (Δ PV= current PV – previous PV). In the following example,
the present error is brought into the PID algorithm according to the normal processing in section A ,and the present
error or Δ PV is counted as 0 to apply the PID algorithm in the section B.

1. When you set PID_MODE to 0, the PID control mode is the automatic control mode.

2. When you set PID_MODE to 1, the PID control mode is the automatic tuning mode. After the tuning of the
parameter is complete, PID_MODE is set to 0. The PID control mode then becomes the automatic control mode.

Suggestions
1. Since you can use the 32-bit instruction in a lot of controlled environments, you must choose the appropriate control
function. For example, to prevent improper control, do not use PID_MODE in the motor controlled environment when
it is set to 1.
2. When you tune the parameters Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, and Td_Kd (PID_MODE is set to 0), you must tune KP first (based on 6_
experience), and then set Ti_Ki and Td_Kd to 0. When you can handle the control, you can increase Ti_Ki and
Td_Kd. When Kc_Kp is 1, it means that the proportional gain is 100%. That is, the error value is increased by a
factor of one. When the proportional gain is less than 100%, the error value is decreased. When the proportional
gain is larger than 100%, the error value is increased.
3. To prevent the parameters that have been tuned automatically from disappearing after a loss of power, you must
store the parameters in the latched data registers when PID_MODE is set to 1. The parameters that have been
automatically tuned are not necessarily suitable for every controlled environment. Therefore, you can modify the
automatically tuned parameters; however, it is suggested that you only modify the Ti_Ki and the Td_Kd.
4. You can use this instruction with many parameters, but to prevent improper control, do not set the parameters
randomly.

Example 2: Tuning the parameters used with the PID instruction

b
Suppose that the transfer function of the plant is the first-order function G(s) = , the SV is 1, the sampling time Ts is
s+a
10 milliseconds. It is suggested that you follow these steps when tuning the parameters.
Step 1: First, set the KI and the KD to 0. Next, set the KP to 5, 10, 20 and 40 successively, and record the target values
and the process values. The results are shown in the following diagram.
1.5
K P =40 SV= 1
K P =20 K P =10
1
K P =5
0.5
0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1 T ime (s ec)
Step 2: When the KP is 40, there is overreaction. When the KP is 20, the reaction curve of PV is close to SV, and there is
no overreaction. However, due to the fast start-up, the transient output value (MV) is big. Neither 40 nor 20 is a
suitable value. When the KP is 10, the reaction curve of PV approaches SV smoothly. When KP is 5, the reaction
is too slow. Therefore, KP = 10 is the best choice.
Step 3: After setting KP to 10, increase KI. For example, KI is successively set to 1, 2, 4, and 8. KI should not be larger
than KP. Then, increase KD. For example, successively set KD to 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2. KD should not be larger
than ten percent of KP. Finally, the relation between PV and SV is shown in the following diagram.

0 0 .1 0 .2 0 .3 0 .4 0 .5 0 .6 0 .7 0 .8 0 .9 1 T ime (s ec)
Note: This example is only for reference. You must tune the parameters properly according to the actual condition of the
control system.
6-212
Example 3: Using the automatic tuning function to control the temperature

Because you may not be familiar with the characteristics of the temperature environment to be controlled, you can use
the automatic tuning function to make an initial adjustment (PID_MODE is set to 1). After the automatic tuning of the
parameter is complete, PID_MODE is set to 0. The controlled environment in this sample is an oven. The following
example program shows the setting values for the instruction.
The experimental result of the automatic tuning function is shown in the following graph. 6_
6-213
The following graph shows the result of using the automatically tuned parameters to control the temperature.
This graph shows that using automatically tuned parameters can result in a good temperature control result. It only takes
about twenty minutes to control the temperature. The following graph shows the result of changing the target
temperature from 80°C to 100°C.
_6
This graph shows that when the target temperature changes from 80°C to 100°C, the automatically tuned parameters still
work to control the temperature in a reasonable amount of time.
6-214
Example 4: Creating a DPIDE instruction in a function block and setting to the cyclic task mode to read the function
block written with a DPIDE instruction to control the temperature.
1. Set the value in DPIDE_CYCLE to 1000 ms, and execute the DPIDE instruction by reading the function block written
with a DPIDE instruction. Whenever the function block is scanned, the PID algorithm is applied according to the sampling
time (Cycle), and it refreshes the output value (DPIDE_MV).
2. Set the DPIDE_MODE =1 for auto tuning the parameters for the temperature control. After tuning is done, the
system is in auto control mode (PID_MODE is set to 0) and fill in the appropriate parameters (Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, Td_Kd, and
Tf).
3. Main program (cyclic task): Since PLC only executes the DPIDE instruction when it is scanned. If we use TMRH to
work with the DPIDE instruction, for example, set the TMRH to 1000 ms, the system calls the function block written with
a DPIDE instruction (AS_DPIDE) every 1000 ms. See the example program below.
6_
4. Function block (AS_DPIDE): Execute the DPIDE instruction by reading the function block written with a DPIDE
instruction. Whenever the function block is scanned, the PID algorithm is applied according to the sampling time (Cycle),
and it refreshes the output value (DPIDE_MV). (Refer to ISPSoft Manual for more details on how to create a function
block.)
6-215
NOTE: The parameters PID_MODE, Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, Td_Kd, Tf and I MV in the function block written with a DPIDE
instruction should be declared as VAR_IN_OUT.
_6
Example 5: Creating a DPIDE instruction in a time interrupt program to control the temperature. (Note: use the time
interrupt as the cycle time of DPIDE.)
1. Set the time interrupt to 1000 ms in HWCONFIG.

2. Create a DPIDE instruction in a time interrupt program. Whenever a time interrupt occurs, the PID
algorithm is applied. The setting in DPIDE_CYCLE is invalid here.
3. Set the DPIDE_MODE =1 for auto tuning the parameters for the temperature control. After tuning is done,
the system is in auto control mode (PID_MODE is set to 0) and fill in the appropriate parameters (Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki,
Td_Kd, and Tf).

Explanation
1. This instruction is only available for AS Series PLCs with firmware version 1.04.00 or higher. The instruction cannot
be used in the ST programming language, interrupt tasks or function block which is called only once.
2. Use this instruction along with API 0710 YOUT. It is very useful for the applications of assembly and processing
with multiple work stations, including painting, carpentry, metalwork sectors and many more.
3. Use S1 for setting the trigger input points; the high-speed inputs are X0.0–X0.15 and the other inputs are general
type. Executing the instruction enables the external interrupts for the inputs (X0.0–X0.15). Therefore do NOT use
the inputs with interrupt tasks; otherwise, when the instruction is executed, the interrupts are disabled and resumed
only after the instruction completes. The general type inputs are affected by the scan time though they are suitable
for the environments where the inputs are not as stable.
6-218
4. S2 works with 32-bit counters (HC0–HC255). When the inputs are the high-speed trigger input type, implement the
hardware high-speed counter and use the DCNT instruction to enable the counter. When you need high-speed output,
use the DMOV instruction to copy the output current position; for example copying the axis of SR460 to HC0, (DMOV
SR460 HC0).
5. For PLC with FW V1.04.00 (V1.04.00 included) or previous versions:

S3 occupies three consecutive 16-bit devices. S3+0 is n (the work station number) and S3+1 is m (the maximum
object number). S3+2 is the result of the object being filtered. The range for n and m is between 1–32. When this
value is out of range, the value used is the maximum (32) or the minimum (1). The range for S3+2 (the number of
filter) is between 0–32767. Zero is used for any value less than 0, and a value of 0 disables the filtering function. Be
sure to declare an array of 3 words or 3 consecutive word type variables.
6. For PLC with FW V1.06.00 (V1.06.00 included) or higher versions:

S3 occupies seven consecutive 16-bit devices. S3+0 is n (the work station number) and S3+1 is m (the maximum
object number). S3+2 is the result of the object being filtered. The range for n and m is between 1–64. When this
value is out of range, the value used is treated as the maximum (32) or the minimum (1). The range for S3+2 (the
number of filter) is between 0–32767. Zero is used for any value less than 0 ; and a value of 0 disables the filtering
function. S3+3 (Low Word) and S3+4 (High Word) are for rising-edge values. S3+5 (Low Word) and S3+6 (High Word)
are for falling-edge values (32-bit). Be sure to declare an array of 7 words or 7 consecutive word type variables.
7. Set the maximum number for S3+1 (m). If m < n, note the objects and make sure they are sufficient on the production
line.
8. S4 occupies 3xn consecutive 32-bit devices (6xn 16-bit devices). If the required space exceeds the range of device
D, the instruction is not executed. The value of n is the work station number set in the operand S3. The following table
lists the functions for each device and the corresponding number for S4. Be sure to declare an array of 3n double
words or 3 consecutive double word type variables for S.

When you set the reference value to 0 for a specific work station, the specific work station stops working. You can
use this technique to manage work stations.
9. D is the first corresponding device for the comparison result in the stack area. D occupies 2xn consecutive 16-bit
devices and 2xmxn consecutive 32-bit devices (or 4xmxn consecutive 16-bit devices). If the required space exceeds
the range of device D, the instruction is not executed. The following table lists the functions for each device and the

D tends to occupy more space in the stack area. If the required space exceeds the range of device D, the PLC only
executes what is valid in the storage and does not show a no warning. It is suggested that you declare an array of
2xn+4xmxn words for D.
10. There is no limit on the number of times you can execute the instruction but only one execution can be done at a
time.
11. It is suggested to use this instruction with the YOUT instruction (API 0710), and use the same first corresponding
_6 device for the comparison result in the stack area (D).

value + observational error. For either rising- or falling-edge triggered, the value of the head index is incremented.
The maximum value for the head index mx2 (the maximum number of objects).
15. The value of the head index is cyclically incremented, when the signal is rising- or falling-edge triggered and
completes processing the number of filters (the default for trigger input is OFF). The maximum value for the head
index is mx2 (the maximum number of objects). For example, if you set the number of objects to 10, the value of the
head index (default: 0) is incremented to 1, 2, 3 to 20 and then 1, 2, 3 to 20 repeatedly. When the value of the head
index is 0, it means no object has entered after executing the instruction. The PLC adds one to the value of the head
index, and then checks the value of the tail index. If the value (after adding one) in the value of the head index equals
the value of the tail index, the PLC cancels the addition and records the counter result.
16. When the instruction is executed and the state of the initial input is OFF, the rising-edge trigger corresponds to the
odd numbers of the head index value, and the falling-edge trigger corresponds to the even numbers of the head
index value.
6-221
17. When the PLC executes the instruction and the state of the initial input is ON, the falling-edge trigger corresponds
to the odd numbers of the head index value, and the rising-edge trigger corresponds to the even numbers of the
head index value.
18. When the PLC executes the instruction, it does not clear the values in the accumulated area and the index areas. If
the data is in a latched area and needs to be enabled again, use the ZRST instruction to clear the values in the head
and tail indexes.

Explanation
1. This instruction is only available for AS Series PLCs with firmware version 1.04.00 or higher. The instruction cannot
be used in the ST programming language, interrupt tasks or function block which is called only once.
2. S1 is for the setting of the high-speed counter. Use the same settings for the high-speed counter as for the high-
speed counter for the XCMP instruction.
3. S2 occupies two consecutive 16-bit devices. S2+0 is n (the work station number) and S2+1 is m (the maximum number
of objects). The range for n and m is between 1–32 for PLC with FW V1.04.00 (V1.04.00 included) or previous
versions. And the range for n and m is between 1–64 for PLC with FW V1.06.00 (V1.06.00 included) or higher
versions. When the value is out of range, the value used is the maximum (32) or the minimum (1). The settings for
the operands should be the same as for the XCMP instruction.
4. S3 is first corresponding device for the comparison result in the stack area. S3 occupies 2xn consecutive 16-bit
devices and 2xmxn consecutive 32-bit devices (or 4xmxn consecutive 16-bit devices). For information on the
functions of each device and the corresponding number for D, refer to the XCMP instruction (API 0709). It is
suggested that you use the same variable as you use for the XCMP instruction.
6-223
5. There is no limit on the number of times you can execute the instruction but only one execution can be done at a
time.
6. It is suggested that you use with the XCMP instruction, and use the same first corresponding device for the
comparison result in the stack area (S3).
7. D is only for the outputs of Y and M devices; Y and M should be the BOOL data type. It occupies a consecutive
number of work stations Xn. When used as the output point of Y or the M device, the instruction refreshes the output
states.
8. The odd numbered head index values (for example 1, 3, 5,…) are the compared counter results for the object when
entering (Compared stack areas for the entering -work-station ones). The even numbered head index values (for
example 2, 4, 6,…) are the compared counter result of the object when leaving (Compared stack areas for the
entering -work-station ones).
9. When the compared counter result for entering and leaving in the stack area are 0, the actions in this area are not
executed and the state of the corresponding output work station is OFF. Add 2 to the value of the tail index and the
added value in the tail index should not exceed the value of the head index.
10. When the YOUT instruction is executed, each work station checks the compared value for entering and leaving in
the tail index. When the counter value is larger or the same as the compared value for entering, the corresponding
output point is ON and adds 1 to the value of the tail index. When the counter value is larger or the same as the
compared value for leaving, the corresponding output is OFF and adds 1 to the value of the tail index; but the value
of the tail index (after adding 1) does not exceed the value of the head index.

Explanation
1. The instruction works with the AS series PLC firmware V1.04.50 or later. The sunrise and sunset times may not be
as accurate as the local weather report publishes because the values that you have entered may be incorrect or the
altitude of where the device is installed may interfere with the accuracy. When the result is not as accurate, you can
adjust the values manually. After self-evaluation, the error range of this instruction is less than 5 minutes.
2. Enter values for the local longitude and latitude in numbers. For example, the longitude and latitude of Taoyuan,
Taiwan is 121.30098 and 24.99363. Latitudes north of the Equator are denoted by a positive sign. Latitudes south
6_
of the Equator are given negative values.
3. Enter values for the local time zone, ranging from -12 to +14. The time zone cannot be calculated through the set
longitude and latitude; if the setting is out of range or the value is incorrect, no error message will be shown.
4. When the daylight saving time is enabled (ON), the instruction checks if the daylight saving time on the PLC is
enabled. When the daylight saving time is enabled on the PLC, DST time will be added on the sunrise and sunset
times.
5. Enter values for the local date, month, and year in decimal format. Make sure you have entered correct values. The
instruction does not check if the values are correctly entered.
6. After calculation, the instruction output the hour, minute and second to sunrise and sunset in integer, in decimal
format and 24 hour time format.
Example
Calculate the time to sunrise and sunset in Taoyuan, Taiwan on January 1st, 2018. The official time zone in Taiwan is
defined by an UTC offset of +08:00. And daily saving time is NOT implemented in Taiwan.
After calculation, the time to sunrise is at 06:39:47 and the time to sunset is at 17:16:42. See the example program below.
6-231
Checked with the official weather website, the actual sunrise occurred at 06:39:44 and the actual sunset occurred at
17:16:45. The difference between the PLC calculation and the actual occurrence is ±3 seconds.

3. Explanation of matrix instructions:
 A matrix is composed of more than one 16-bit register. The number of registers in a matrix is the length of the
array n. There are 16×n bits in a matrix, and the matrix operation is performed on one bit at a time.
 The matrix instruction takes the 16×n bits in a matrix as a string of bits, rather than as values. The matrix
operation is performed on each bit.
 Matrix instructions mainly process the one-to-many or many-to-many status, such as moving, copying,
comparing, and searching by bit.
 You must specify a 16-bit register for the matrix instruction. The 16-bit register specifies a certain bit among
the 16n bits in the matrix for the operation, and the 16-bit register is called the pointer. The value in the
register is between 0–16n-1, and corresponds to the bit between b0–b16n-1.
 Shifting or rotating of the specified data can be involved in the matrix operation. Note that the bit number
decreases from the left to the right, as illustrated below.

 The width of the matrix (C) is 16 bits.
 Pr represents the pointer. When the value in Pr is 15, it specifies b15.
Example: The following matrix is composed of the three 16-bit devices Y0, Y1, and Y2. The data in Y0 is
16#AAAA, the data in Y1 is 16#5555, and the data in Y2 is 16#AAFF.

timer that completes the measurement first will be the only one that counts.
4. The T timer resets to zero automatically when the conditional contact changes from ON to OFF.
5. When you add the letter S in front of the device T, the timer in the instruction TMR is an accumulative timer. When
the conditional contact is OFF, the value of the accumulative timer is not cleared. When the conditional contact is
ON, the timer counts from the current value. Use the RST instruction with the ST accumulative timer when you want
to clear the value of the timer.
6. If you use the same T timer in the program, it is OFF when one of the conditional contacts is OFF.
7. If you use the same T timer for T and ST in the program, T is OFF when one of the conditional contacts is OFF.
8. When the instruction TMR is executed, the specified timer coil is ON and the timer begins to count. As the value of
the timer matches the setting value, the contact is ON.
6-271
9. The timers T0–T411 are defined as general timers, and T412–T511 are subroutine timers by default. Use the
hardware configuration software HWCONFIG if you need to change the ranges of the two types of timers.
10. The general timers compare the timing values when the TMR instruction is scanned. The system applies the timer
to the condition every time the TMR instruction status is scanned.
For the subroutine timers, the system counts the time and compares the timing values after the END instruction is
executed. Use subroutine timers when the TMR instruction is executed not in every scan, but you need longer lasting
timing and comparing.
Example 1 (using general type of counter; counts for 100 ms time window)
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction loads the setting value 50 to the timer T0, and T0 counts from 0 to 50. When the value
of T0 matches 50, the contact of T0 is ON.
Example 2 (using accumulative type of counter; counts for 100 ms time window)
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction loads the setting value 50 to the timer ST0. When the value of T0 is 25 and X0.0
_6 switches from OFF to ON, then T0 counts up from 25 to 50, and the contact of T0 is ON (accumulative).
Example 3 (using general type of counter; counts for 1 ms time window)
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction loads the setting value 1000 to the timer T5, and T5 counts up from 0 to 1000, and the
contact of T5 is ON.
6-272
Example 4 (using accumulative type of counter; counts for 1 ms time window)
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction loads the setting value 1000 to the timer T5. When the value of T5 is 500 and
X0.0 switches from OFF to ON, T5 counts up from 500 to 1000, and the contact of T5 is ON (accumulative).
Example 5 (using a function block in TMRH instruction)
Step 1: Declare the function block as T_Pointer.
This function block clears the value in D0 every 5 seconds.
6_
Step 2: Appoint T_Pointer as T0 in the program of unit (POU).
Additional remarks
When you declare the operand S1 in ISPSoft, select the data type TIMER for the general T timer. For an accumulative
ST timer, specify the ST device.

S2 ： Setting value for the counter
Explanation
_6 1. This instruction changes a specified counter coil from OFF to ON, and then increments the value of the counter by
1. When the value of the counter matches the setting value, the contact of the counter is ON.
2. When the value of the counter matches the setting value, the instruction does not change the state of the contact
and value of the counter if any more counting pulses are input. Use the RST instruction (API 1000) to reset the
counter and enable counting again.
3. Refer to Example 1 below for a demonstration of using CNT instruction in a program of unit (POU). Refer to Example
2 below for a demonstration of using CNT instruction in a function block (FB).
4. You can use the same device C number of CNT instruction that used in a POU for more than once. The system will
count according to different contact status, OFF or ON separately.
5. You can NOT use the same device C number of CNT instruction that used in a FB for more than once. It is suggested
to use only 1 device C number for FW V1.07.00 (excluded) or prevision versions. For FW V1.07 or later version, you
can us up to 8 identical device C number of CNT instruction that used in a FB.
6-274
Example 1 (using CNT instruction in a POU)
When SM408 is ON for the first time, the instruction loads the setting value 10 to the counter C0 and the counter begins
counting. After SM408 switches from OFF to ON ten times, the value in C0 is 10 and the contact of C0 is ON. After C0 is
ON, if SM408 continues to switch from OFF to ON, the instruction does not increase the value in C0 after it reaches the
setting value for C0.
Example 2 (using a function block in CNT instruction)
Step 1: Declare the function block as C_Pointer.

Explanation
_6 1. This instruction enables the 32-bit counter between HC0–HC255.
2. If you declare the operand S1 in ISPSoft, you cannot select the CNT data type; instead, specify an HC device number.
3. For the count-up/count-down counters HC0–HC63, when the conditional contact of this instruction switches from
OFF to ON, the counters count up by incrementing the values by 1 when SM621–SM684 are OFF or count down by
decrementing the values by 1 when SM621–SM684 are ON.
4. Count-up counters HC64–HC199 count up by increasing the values by 1 when the conditional contact of the DCNT
instruction switches from OFF to ON.
5. The counter stops counting when the DCNT instruction is OFF, but the instruction does not clear the original count
value. Use the RST instruction to clear the count value and reset the contact to OFF.
6. Refer to Example 2 of CNT instruction for a demonstration of using DCNT instruction in a function block (FB).
7. Refer to the following pages for details on the high-speed counter HC200–HC255. Whenever PLC scans this
instruction, it refreshes the appointed counter for its updated values. Thus it is suggested to use this instruction in a
POU. NOTE: The number of the high-speed can NOT be duplicated.
6-276
8. Since AS Series PLC is with various built-in input types, different maximum input frequency are suggested. See the
table below for reference. It is possible that the maximum input frequency cannot be reached for the sinking and
souring type. If the output type is normally open (NO) and the drive current is insufficient. Refer to Chapter 4 from

Example 1
NETWORK1:
When PLC runs, the value of the counter HC0 is cleared and the counter counts because SM621 is OFF. At this time,
SM408 is ON for the first time. So the instruction loads the setting value 10 to the counter HC0 and the counter begins
counting.
NETWORK2:
After SM408 switches from OFF to ON ten times, the value of the counter HC0 matches the setting value 10, and the
contact of HC0 is ON. After HC0 is ON, the value of the counter keeps increasing because SM408 continues to change
from OFF to ON even though the value of HC0 has reached the setting value.
NETWORK3:
When HC0 continues to count up and the value reaches the setting value 20, the counter counts down because SM621
is ON in the program. After SM408 switches from OFF to ON ten times and the value of HC0 decreases from 10 to 9, the
contact of HC0 is OFF.
After the contact of HC0 is OFF, the value of HC0 still continues to decrease because SM408 continues to change from
OFF to ON.
6-277
Additional remarks
For setting the mode of SM621–SM684, refer to the explanation of the 32-bit counter HC in Chapter 2.
Example 2
NETWORK1:
_6 When PLC runs, set the value of the counter HC202 to four time frequency (mode setting should be set before executing
the DCNT instruction). And then the value of the counter HC202 is cleared.
NETWORK2:
After the value of the counter HC202 reached the setting value 1000, the contact of HC202 is ON.
6-278
Explanation of the high-speed counter:

AS Series high-speed counters can be divided into hardware counters (up to a maximum of 200KHz input, and for
differential input points up to 4MHz) and software counters (up to a maximum of 10KHz). Refer to hardware specification
for more details on the input limit.

Note 1: P: single-phase pulse input, D: Direction signal input, A and B: two phase two input, R: Reset signal input. Only
one out of four input modes can be used in PLC programing. For example, if HC200 is edited, the HC20-HC203 can no
longer be edited.
Note 2: -- indicates that the counting mode is reserved and not available now. An empty box indicates no function.
Note3: refer to the SM/SR table for count up/down state selection and the number of times for frequency input.
Note 4: the R function (reset input) is disabled by default. Refer to the SM/SR comparison table for how to use R.
Take HC200 for example. SM291 switches to ON to start the R function and then the rising edge of X0.12 triggers
clearing the value of HC200. If there is no built-in input points, including X0.12 ~ X0.15, in the PLC you are using, you
can use external interrupts or use counter eraser instructions to clear the counters.

Note 1: All SM special flags in the above table are OFF by default.
Note 2: When SM under “Count-up/count-down function” is OFF, it indicates that the corresponding counter counts up or
displays that it is counting up. If SM is ON, it indicates that the corresponding counter counts down or displays that
it is counting down.
Note 3: The “ under Attribute indicates “Read only” and R/W indicates “Read/Write”.
_6
Note 4: The SR special registers under “Counting mode” are 1 time frequency input by default. Use 2 for the input value
for double frequency and 4 for four times frequency. Four times frequency is only applicable to the A/B 2-phase
input counter. If the input value is not 1, 2 or 4 in SR, this indicates that the PLC uses one times frequency.
Note 5: All single-phase counters in the table count using one times frequency, and the rising-edge counting mode
changes the input point from OFF to ON.
Note 6: P (Pulse input) and D (Direction) counters can reverse direction. When SM is ON, the counting direction
(up/down) is reversed. For example, when the preset direction input is OFF, the counter counts up. When SM
switches to ON, the counter changes to count down.

S2 ： Comparative value
Explanation 6_
1. Use this instruction with high-speed counters with numbers HC200 and above. If the value in the high-speed counter
specified by S1 changes by increasing or decreasing by 1, the DHSCS instruction makes the comparison
immediately. When the current value of the high-speed counter is equal to the comparative value specified in S2, the
device specified by D changes to ON. After that, the device specified by D remains ON even if the comparison result
is that the current value and the comparative value are not equal.
2. If the device specified by D is Y0.0–Y0.15, and the value of S2 is equal to the current value , the comparison result of
the high-speed counter is output to the output terminals Y0.0–Y0.15. Other Y devices are affected by the scan cycle,
but this instruction updates all devices immediately and is not affected by the scan cycle. For PLC with FW V1.06.00
(V1.06.00 included) or later versions, devices Y0.12 ~ Y0.15 are affected by the scan cycle.
3. The D operand can also specify an I interrupt device between 1200–1267.
4. The high-speed counters are divided into software counters and hardware counters. The available high-speed
comparators and interrupt device numbers are listed in the following table.
6-283

5. Explanation of the hardware comparators for DHSCS, DHSCR, DHSCY and DHSZ instructions:
 Every one group of hardware counters shares 4 high-speed comparators. One DHSCS, or DHSCR
instruction occupies 1 high-speed comparator. One DHSZ, DHSCY instruction uses 2 high-speed
_6 comparators.
 During program editing, every group of hardware counters can use 4 high-speed comparators at most for
DHSCS, DHSCR, DHSCY or DHSZ instructions; otherwise, a syntax error occurs.
6. Explanation of the software comparators for DHSCS, DHSCR and DHSCY instructions:
 There are 8 software comparators to compare the Set or Reset function. Each DHSCS, DHSCR or DHSCY
instruction uses one high-speed comparator.
 The software comparators compare the interrupt by assigning a corresponding software comparator
according to the interrupt numbers. Note that the same interrupt number cannot be used repeatedly.
 For DHSCS, DHSCR or DHSCY instructions, the number of Set or Reset comparators cannot exceed eight
occurrences in the program; otherwise, a syntax error occurs.
7. Explanation of the software comparators for DHSZ instruction:
 There are eight software comparators for the zone comparison. One DHSZ instruction uses one comparator.
 DHSZ instruction can use a maximum of eight software comparators; otherwise, a syntax error occurs if
more than eight comparators are used.
8. The instructions DHSCS, DHSCR, DHSCY and DHSZ cannot be used in the ST programming language, interrupt
tasks or function block which is called only once.
6-284
Example 1
When M0 is ON, the DHSCS instruction is executed.
When the current value of HC200 changes from 99 to 100 or from 101 to 100, Y0.10 is ON, which outputs to the external
output terminal Y0.10 in real time, and remains ON.
Example 2
The Y output of DHSCS instruction is different from the general Y output.
1. When M0 is ON, the DHSCS instruction is executed. When the current value of HC200 changes from 99 to 100 or
from 101 to 100, Y0.10 outputs its state to the external output terminal immediately, and is not affected by the
program scan time.
6_
2. When the current value of HC200 changes from 99 to100, the contact of HC200 is ON immediately. When SET
Y0.11 is executed, Y0.11 is still affected by the scan time, and outputs its state only after END is passed.
6-285
Example 3
Using an interrupt in hardware high-speed comparison.
When the current value of HC200 changes from 99 to100 or 101 to100, the program jumps to the interrupt pointer to
execute the interrupt program, and Y0.10 is ON.

Explanation 6_
1. Use this instruction with the high-speed counter numbered HC200 and above. If the value in the high-speed counter
specified by S1 changes by increasing or decreasing, the DHSCR instruction makes the comparison immediately.
When the current value of the high-speed counter is equal to the comparative value specified in S2, the device specified
by D changes to OFF. After that, the device specified by D remains OFF even if the comparison result is that the
current value and the comparative value are not equal.
2. If the device specified by D is Y0.0–Y0.15, and the comparative value of S2 is equal to the current value of the counter,
the comparison result is output to the external output terminals Y0.0–Y0.15. Other Y devices are affected by the scan
cycle, but this instruction updates all devices immediately and is not affected by the scan cycle.
3. The D operand can also specify the HC device to reset, and is limited to the condition in which the high-speed counter
number is the same as that of S1.
4. Refer to the DHSCS instruction (API 1005) for more information.
6-287
Example 1
1. When M0 is ON and HC200 changes its current value from 99 to 100 or from 101 to 100, Y0.10 is reset to OFF.
2. When HC200 changes its current value from 199 to 200, the contact of HC200 is ON and Y0.11 is ON, but the
output is delayed by the program scan time.
Example 2
If you specify HC200 as the hardware high-speed counter of the same number, the contact of HC200 is reset to OFF
when HC200 changes its current value from 999 to 1000 or from 1001 to 1000.

Explanation
1. Use this instruction with the high-speed counter numbers HC200 and above. The lower bound of S2 must be less
than the upper bound of S3. If you do not set the zone limit values properly, the PLC automatically adjusts them.
2. If S1 specifies a software counter and the specified counter changes by increasing or decreasing by 1 in value, the
DHSZ instruction makes the comparison immediately. The comparison condition and output state are shown in the
following table.
Comparison condition D+0 state D+1 state D+2 state
The count value of S1 < the lower bound (S2) ON OFF OFF
The lower bound (S2) <= the count value of

OFF ON OFF
S1 < the upper bound (S3)
The count value of S1 >= the upper bound

OFF OFF ON
(S3)
Note: You must set the lower bound (S2) to be less than the upper bound (S3). If you set the zone boundaries
incorrectly, the PLC automatically makes the adjustment.
6-289
3. If S1 specifies a hardware counter and the value of the specified counter reaches the lower bound (S2) or the upper
bound (S3), the DHSZ instruction makes the comparison immediately according to the count direction (up/down).
The comparison condition and output state are shown in the following table.
Count direction Comparison condition D+0 state D+1 state D+2 state
The count value of S1 == the

4. If the device specified by D is Y0.0–Y0.15, the comparison result is output to the external output terminals Y0.0–
Y0.15. Other Y devices are affected by the scan cycle, but this instruction updates all devices immediately and is not
affected by the scan cycle. For PLC with FW V1.06.00 (V1.06.00 included) or later versions, devices Y0.12 ~ Y0.15
are affected by the scan cycle.
5. Refer to the DHSCS instruction (API 1005) for more information on the high-speed zone comparison.
_6
Example
1. When D is specified as Y0.10, Y0.11–Y0.12 are also specified automatically.
2. The instruction compares the current value in HC200 with the upper/lower bound (1500/2000) of the comparison
zone, and one of Y0.10–Y0.12 is ON according to the comparison result.
3. When the current value in HC200 <1500, Y0.10 is ON. When 1500<= the current value in HC200<2000, Y0.11 is
ON.
When the current value in HC200>=2000, Y0.12 is ON.

S1 ： Counter value
S2 ： Setting value for the cycle time
D ： Number of pulses from the previous scan cycle
Explanation
1. This instruction requires that you use S1 with the DCNT instruction (API 1004) to enable the high speed counter with 6_
counter numbers above HC200 (including HC200).
2. The time units for S2 (the setting value for the cycle time) are millisecond (ms). The setting must be between 10–
1000. When the value is out of range, the PLC executes the instruction with S2 at the minimum value or the
maximum value and there are no error messages.
3. When the count reaches the setting value in S2 , this instruction stores the number of pulses in the device specified
by D, and is not affected by the PLC scan cycle.
4. This instruction has no limitation when editing, but it only allows eight sets of speed detection instructions to run
simultaneously. The system ignores the ninth set of the speed detection instruction and there are no error
messages. When executing this instruction, the setting values for the operand are recorded, and during the
execution of this instruction, you cannot edit the parameters.
6-291
Example
You can use the DSPD instruction for speed detection where there is an input pulse signal at X0.0. When M0 is ON,
the instruction updates the number of pulses counted by HC200 in D0 every 500ms.
In the following example, the value in D0 is 7500 and the actual pulse input frequency of X0.0 is 15kHz
(7500/500ms).

Explanation
1. S1 supports the following 12 inputs, X0.0~X011, but S1 cannot share the same inputs with the high speed counter.
2. S2 is the unit of measurement. The instruction is not executed if the setting value of S2 is not a valid S2 code from the
following table.

4 1us Cycle time 1Hz - 10kHz
5 1ms 0.02Hz - 100Hz
Other values The instruction is not executed.

3. The instruction stores the pulse width detection time (32-bit value) in D1 and the detection range is 0–100,000,000. If
the value is over the maximum value, it is processed as the maximum value. If the value is 0, that means is no input
switched from ON to OFF during the execution of this instruction.
4. D2 is the update flag. Whenever the detection of the S1 input is completed and the instruction is scanned,, the
updated flag switches to ON for one scan cycle time. You can check if the detection value has been updated with
the update flag. When the system executes the instruction for the first time, the update flag resets to OFF.
5. When the value in S2 is 0, 1 or 2, refer to the timing diagram below for the procedures performed, such as storing
detection values and updating flags during the execution of the instruction. The timer starts when the S1 input
switches from OFF to ON as it is shown in the position  of the following diagram. The instruction stores the
detection time when the S1 input switches from ON to OFF as shown in the position  of the following diagram.

7. This instruction has no limitation during editing, but it only allows eight sets of pulse width detection instructions to
run simultaneously. The system ignores the ninth or later sets of the pulse width detection instruction and there are
no error messages. When executing this instruction, the setting values for the operands are recorded, and you
cannot edit the parameters during execution.
8. Before executing this instruction, check the input hardware response time and the pulse time set in HWCONFIG. For
example, when the value in S2 is set to 0 or 2, that means the unit of time measurement is microseconds (μs). Set
the S1 input value to 0 to disable the Input Point Filter Time in HWCONFIG.
Example
Suppose there is a pulse signal of 10kHz in the input X0.0. When M0 is ON, the PWD instruction detects the input
signal on X0.0 with the pulse width stored in D10/D11 (32-bit data), the time unit is set to 0, and the detected pulse
width from D10 is 50µs.

External interrupt input point

Explanation
_6 1. You can use only the 16 input points X0.0–X0.15 of the PLC in S1. Use one of these input points with the external
interrupt service program to start the function. Note that S1 cannot share the same input point with the high-speed
counter.
2. Select the high-speed counter HC device in S2. You must use the HC device with the DCNT instruction (API 1004) to
start the counting function.
3. The instruction stores the captured value from the high-speed counter (32-bit) in D when the interrupt occurs. The
instruction stores data when the interrupt occurs, and is not affected by the PLC program scanning.
4. The instruction operation is shown below. The input interrupt is triggered by the falling edge.
  When the execution of the instruction starts, the value in D does not change and you can enter the default
setting value.
  When the interrupt in S1 occurs, the instruction captures the value of the counter specified by S2 immediately
and stores it in D.

5. The instruction can start DCAP instructions for four different input points at most. If you set one input point as the
external interrupt triggered by the rising edge and falling edge, the instruction captures the value when the input is
triggered by the rising edge and by falling edge respectively, and stores the count value in the device specified by D.
When two instructions specify the same interrupt input point, the one that starts first uses the interrupt input point
first.
6. Set the HC device number in S2. It is recommended that you use the high-speed counters between HC200–HC255.
For details on the counters, refer to the explanation of the DCNT instruction (API 1004).
Example

External interrupt is triggered by the rising edge at X0.7.
External interrupt is triggered by the falling edge at X0.7.
_6
6-298
Additional remarks
1. When M0 is ON, the DCAP instruction is enabled. When an external interrupt occurs at X0.7, the instruction
captures the value in HC200 and stores it in (32-bit) D0.
2. When the external input interrupt is triggered by the rising edge once, the instruction modifies E0 to 0 by setting
D100, stores the count value in D0 in D10 by modifying E0, and the value in D100 is 0+2.
3. When the external input interrupt is triggered by the falling edge one time, the instruction modifies E0 to 2 by
setting D100, stores the count value (10+E0=12) in D0 in D12 by modifying E0, and the value in D100 is 0+2.
When the value in D100 is 20, D100 is cleared to 0.
4. If the external interrupt is triggered by the rising edge and falling edge five times respectively, the instruction
captures the value 10 times and stores the captured values in D10, D12…D28.
The 1st captured value= D10
The 2nd captured value= D12
The 10th captured value=D28
The 11th captured value=D10

D : The time measurement result
Explanation
1. The IETS instruction need be used with the API1013 IETE instruction together in order to measure the time for the
execution of the instruction in a PLC program which is specified to execute. The unit for the measured time is 1us. 6_
2. When the IETS instruction is enabled, the timing starts immediately until the IETE instruction is also executed. The
measurement result is stored in D device.
3. Minimum and maximum time measurement results are 0us and 32767us respectively. After the IETS instruction is
enabled, the PLC will automatically finish the time measurement and store the measurement result in D device if
no IETE instruction has been scanned and the PLC program scanning reaches the END instruction.
4. For the instructions IETS and IETE, there is no limit to how many of them are written in the program. But only one
set of IETS and IETE can be enabled every time the scan is executed. If IETS is enabled repeatedly for measuring
time, the timing of enabling the last IETS instruction is taken as the start of the time measurement. On the contrary,
if the execution of multiple IETE instructions is completely finished, the PLC will see the point when the first IETE
instruction is disabled as the end point when the time measurement is finished.
5. The IETS instruction is usually used to measure the running time of a PLC program such as interrupt service
program function blocks and etc. Since PLC’s time-measurement resource will be occupied as the time
measurement function is enabled, we suggest the two instructions should be removed after the measuring is
completed in order to avoid occupying the PLC resource during the normal execution.

Calculate the instruction execution time based on the formula for the floating point number operation and the operation
result is stored in D100.

CmpS ： The source value of data in 32-bit to be compared
Action ： Action to be taken when the comparison is made.
Yno ： The number of Y output point
CurNo ： The current group number that is making the comparison
Explanation
1. This instruction is available for FW V1.06.10 or later.
2. HCno: If the counter is a general one, the comparison will not begin even when the timing to execute comparison is
reached. The comparison begins only when the instruction is scanned. If the counter is a high-speed one, the
comparison begins when the timing to execute comparison is reached, not affected by the PLC scan cycle. Refer to
DHSCS instruction for more details on the usage and the restriction of the high-speed number.
3. CmpLen: To select a set of groups for comparison. The set group compares in a cyclic manner. The setting value of
the group can be between 4 and 32. If the setting value exceeds the acceptable range, this instruction is not
executed. And SM0 will be switched to ON. Error code SR0: 0x200B.

4. CmpS (supposedly set as D100), Action (supposedly set as D200), Yno (supposedly set as D300), CmpLen
(supposedly set as 6), CurNo (as it is set below).
CurNo CmpS Action Yno

Number) bit to be compared) the comparison is made.) Y output point)
1 D100 = 1000 D200 = 1 (Set) D300 = 16#04 (Y0.4)
2 D102 = 2000 D201 = 1 (Set) D301 = 16#05 (Y0.5)
3 D104 = 3000 D202 = 1 (Set) D302 = 16#06 (Y0.6)
4 D106 = 4500 D203 = 0 (Reset) D303 = 16#04 (Y0.4)
5 D108 = 5500 D204 = 0 (Reset) D304 = 16#05 (Y0.5)
6 D110 = 6500 D205 = 0 (Reset) D305 = 16#06 (Y0.6)
 CmpS: The source value of data in 32-bit integer. It takes several Dword space in CmLen. Thus it is suggested
to declare the array in the data type of Dword. The compared value is arranged in ascending order when the
source value is positive integers. The compared value is arranged in descending order when the source value is
negative integers. If the compared value is arranged not by the rules as mentioned, the instruction is not executed
and SM0 will be switched to ON. Error code SR0: 0x200B.
 Action: Action to be taken when the comparison is made. The value is in 16-bit integer and it takes one word
space in CmLen. The value “1” here means setting the output point to ON. The value “0” here means setting the
output point to OFF. Use 16#8000 to clear the counter value to 0 and restart the cyclic counting. Only use the
value 1, 0 or 16#8000 in here. It is suggested to declare the array in the data type of Word.
 Yno: The number of the Y output point, this value should be a 16-bit integer. It takes several Word space in
CmLen. The format here is hexadecimal. For example, 16#0004 means the Y0.4 output point, 16#0016 Y1.6
output point, and 16#00AF Y10.15 output point. It is suggested to declare the array in the data type of Word.
 CurNo: The current group number that is making the comparison. From the table above, you can see if the
setting value in CmLen is 1000, the CurNo. Is 1.
6_
5. When the value you use in Yno is not the CPU built-in output points, the outputting is affected by the PLC scan
cycle. If you need the immediate output, use CPU built-in output points and hardware type high-speed counter in
HCno.
6. Since this instruction is for cyclic comparing and outputting, you need to set a way to clear the counter value to 0 to
set a range for cyclic operation. It is suggested to use hardware input to set the counter to 0. Or you can also use a
setting to clear the counter. For example you need 6 groups to perform cyclic comparison. You can set the setting
value in CmpLen as 7 and you will have a 7 groups of CruNo (defined by CmpS). And then use 16#8000 as the
setting value in Action to clear HC. See the table below for reference.
D206 = 16#8000 D306 = 0
7 (CurNo=0) D112 = 8000
(Clear HC) (none)
7. When the instruction is firstly executed, it compares the current counter value to the value set in CmpS and set the
value in CurNo accordingly. See the example table in number 4. If the current counter value is 2000, that
corresponds to the value (D102 = 2000) set in CmpS and the corresponding value of CurNo is 2. From there you
know the Y0.5 is ON.
8. See the example in chronological illustration below.

Explanation
1. This instruction is available for FW V1.06.10 or later.
2. You can only use the CPU built-in input points from X0.0 to X0.11 fro XnoA and XnoB. And the number of the input
points can NOT be duplicated. When the input points used are not from X0.0 to X0.11 or the number of the input
points are duplicated, the instruction is not executed. And SM0 will be switched to ON. Error code SR0: 16#2003.
3. When XnoA is rising-edge triggered, the timer starts timing immediately, not affected by the PLC scan cycle. When
XnoB is rising-edge triggered, the timer stops timing immediately, not affected by the PLC scan cycle. And the time
that is timed (unit: 1 us) will be stored in PhaseT, when this instruction is scanned by the PLC.
4. When the timer starts and this instruction is scanned to execute, the Exe flag will be ON. When the timer stops and
this instruction is scanned to execute, the Exe flag will be OFF.
5. Whenever this instruction is firstly activated, its initial action is to clear the value in PhaseT and set the Exe flag to
OFF.
6. XnoA is always timed before XnoB. Even if XnoB is rising-edge triggered before XnoA is triggered. If you need
XnoB to be timed before XnoA, you need to re-define XnoA, XnoB and the input points in them.
7. There is no limit to the number of times the instruction can be executed. And to use the same number of input points
is also no problem. But since PLC uses the number of input point for XnoA as the number of the internal timer. It is
NOT suggested to use two identical numbers of the input point for XnoA at the same time. Or the system will get
confused. And the timing result from the timer will be messed up.

instruction shifts the values of the bits to the left. When SM616 is ON, the instruction shifts the values of the bits to
the right. The instruction fills the vacancy (b0 when shifting to the left, and b16n-1 when shifting to the right)
resulting from the shift with the state of the borrow flag SM615.The instruction transmits the value of the bit shifted
last (from shifting to the left is b16n-1 and from shifting to the right is b0) to the carry flag SM614, and stores the
operation result in D.
3. In general, the MBSP pulse instruction is used.
Example 1
When X0.0 is ON, SM616 is OFF. The instructions shifts the values of the bits to the left. Suppose SM615 is OFF. After
the instruction shifts the values of the bits in the 16-bit registers D0–D2 to the left, it stores the operation result in the 16-
bit registers D20–D22, and SM614 is ON.

The instruction decodes the values of the lower four bits (b0–b3) in the source device specified by S as the seven-
segment data stored in D.
Example
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction decodes the values of b0–b3 in D0 as the seven-segment data stored in Y0.0–Y0.15. If
the data in the source device exceeds four bits, the instruction decodes the values of the lower four bits.

Explanation
1. This instruction stores the data to be sorted in the m1×m2 registers starting from the register specified by D. If S
and D specify the same register, the sorted data is the same as the original data in the register specified by S.
2. The operand m1 must be between 1–32. The operand m2 must be between 1–6. The operand n must be between
1–m2.
3. When SM604 is OFF, the instruction sorts the data in ascending order. When SM604 is ON, the instruction sorts
the data in descending order.
4. It is suggested that you use the SORTP or DSORTP pulse type instruction instead of sorting repeatedly.

_6 Explanation
1. Communication protocols use the sum check function to compare checksums on the same data on different
occasions or on different representations of the data to verify data integrity.
2. When SM606 is OFF, the instruction uses the 16-bit conversion mode. The instruction adds up n pieces of data in
the registers starting from the register specified by S (eight bits as a group). The instruction stores the sum in the
register specified by D, and stores the values of the parity bits in D+1.
3. When SM606 is ON, the instruction uses the 8-bit conversion mode. The instruction adds up the n pieces of data in
the registers starting from the register specified by S (eight bits in a group, and only low eight bits are valid). The
instruction stores the sum in the register specified by D, and stores the values of the parity bits in D+1.

Example 1
1. When SM606 is OFF, the instruction uses the 16-bit conversion mode.
2. When X0.0 is ON, the instruction adds up the six pieces of data in D0–D2 (eight bits in a group). The instruction
stores the sum in D100, and stores the values of the parity bits in D101.

1. This instruction checks the state of SM613. If SM613 is ON, the instruction clears the value of the pointer D to
zero. The instruction reads the value of the bit specified by the value of the pointer D into SM614, and then checks
the state of SM612. If SM612 is ON, the instruction increments the value of the pointer D by adding one.
2. When the instruction reads the value of the last bit, SM608 is ON, and the instruction stores the bit number in the
pointer D.
4. You specify the value of the pointer. The values are between 0–16n−1, and correspond to the range between b0–
b16n−1. If the value of the pointer exceeds the range, SM611 is set to one, and the instruction is not executed.
Example
1. Suppose SM613 is OFF and SM612 is ON when X0.0 switches from OFF to ON.

Explanation
1. This instruction subtracts the minimum value of the deadband in S1 or the maximum value of the deadband in S2
from the input value in S3, and stores the difference in D.
If the input value in S3 is smaller than the minimum value of the deadband in S1, the instruction subtracts S1 from
S3, and stores the difference in D.
If the input value in S3 is greater than the maximum value of the deadband in S2, the instruction subtracts S2 from
S3, and stores the difference in D.
If the input value in S3 is between the minimum of the deadband in S1 and the maximum value of the deadband in
S2, the instruction stores zero in D.
6-396
If the minimum value of the deadband in S1 is larger than the maximum value of the deadband in S2, the
instruction is not executed.

4. The minimum value of the deadband in S1, the maximum value of the deadband in S2, the input value in S3, and
the output value in D must be within the range described below.
5. For the BAND instruction, the minimum value of the deadband in S1, the maximum value of the deadband in S2,
the input value in S3, and the output value in D must be between -32768 to 32767. Suppose the minimum value of
the deadband in S1 is 10 and the maximum value of the deadband in S3 is -32768. The instruction calculates the 6_
output value in D as follows.
Output value in D = -32768-10=16#8000-16#000A=16#7FF6=32758
6. For the DBAND instruction, the minimum value of the deadband in S1, the maximum value of the deadband in S2,
the input value in S3, and the output value in D must be between -2147483648 to 2147483647. Suppose the
minimum value of the deadband in (S1+1, S1) is 1000 and the maximum value of the deadband in (S3+1, S3) is -
2147483648. The instruction calculates the output value in (D+1, D) as follows.

Convert the string value in source device S (Lo-byte) into a floating-point value (operand n; decimal point
excluded) and store this value in device D.
Note:
1. The setting value in operand n should be less than 8. If the value you set is exceeding the maximum
value 8, it will be treated as the maximumum value 8. For example if n = k6, when you convert the string
123.45678 into a floating-point value, the result is 123.456.
2. If the source value includes not just numeral characters, the non-numeral characters will be treated as 0

when it is shown before the decimal point and it will be treated as the ending character when it is shown
after the decimal point. For example if n = k6, when you convert the string BC12.4K59 into a floating-
point value, the result is 0012.4.
3. If there is no decimal point in the string, the string is converted directly into a floating-point value. See

1301 NEXT － Ending a nested loop

－ AS －
Symbol
Explanation
1. This instruction executes the program between the FOR and NEXT instructions N times, where N is the value in S
specified for the FOR instruction (API 1300). After the program between the FOR and NEXT instructions is
executed N times, the program following the NEXT instruction is executed. The instruction FOR specifies the
number of times the program between the FOR and NEXT instructions is executed.
2. N must be between 1–32,767. If N is less than 1, the instruction processes it as 1.
3. If you do not want to execute the program between the FOR and NEXT instructions, you can skip it with the CJ
4. The following conditions result in errors.
 The NEXT instruction is prior to the FOR instruction.

_6
 The FOR instruction exists, but the NEXT instruction does not exist.
 The NEXT instruction follows the FEND or END instruction.
 The number of times the FOR instruction is used in the program is different from the number of times the
NEXT instruction is used in the program.
5. The FOR and NEXT instructions support the nested program structure. There can be at most 32 levels of nested
program structures. If a loop is executed many times, it takes more time for the PLC to scan the program, and the
watchdog timer error may occur. You can use the WDT instruction (API 1900) to resolve the problem.
6-420
Example 1
After program A is executed three times, the program following the instruction NEXT is executed. Program B is executed
four times every time program A is executed. Therefore, program B is executed twelve times in total.
Example 2
When X0.0 is OFF, the program between FOR and NEXT is executed. When X0.0 is ON, the CJ instruction is executed.
The execution of the program jumps to LABEL 1:, i.e. network 6, and network 4–5 are not executed. 6_
6-421
Example 3
If the program between FOR and NEXT is not to be executed, you can skip it with the CJ instruction. When X0.1 in
network 8 is ON, the instruction CJ is executed. The execution of the program jumps to LABEL 1:, i.e. network 12, and
network 9–11 are not executed.

Device where the remaining number
D ： of times the loop can be executed is

Explanation
1. This instruction terminates the FOR/NEXT loop. The remaining number of times the FOR/NEXT loop can be
repeated is stored in D. After the loop has executed D times, the program jumps to the NEXT instruction and
executes the instruction after the NEXT instruction.
6_
2. When the instruction is executed, the remaining number of times the FOR/NEXT loop can be repeated is stored in
D, including this time the instruction BREAK is executed.
3. When the BREAK instruction is executed for the first time to terminate the FOR/NEXT loop, the program does not
jump out of the FOR/NEXT loop to execute the next instruction. If the BREAK instruction is executed more than one
time to terminate the FOR/NEXT loop, the program jumps to the NEXT instruction and executes the instruction
following the NEXT instruction.
Example
When the FOR/NEXT loop is executed, 1 is added to the value in D0. When the value in D0 is equal to 30, the
FOR/NEXT loop is terminated, and the remaining number of times the FOR/NEXT loop can be repeated, i.e. 71, is stored
in D10. The execution of the program jumps to LABEL 1:, i.e. network 6, and 1 is added to the value in D2.

modules.
3. The operand m2 represents the number of the right-side extension modules that are connected to the CPU module
or to the remote modules. The first device is number 1, the second device is number 2 and so on. Any types of
connected modules are counted and up to 32 devices can be connected.
4. The operand m3 specifies the control register number.
5. The FROM instruction sets D2 to 0. When an error occurs, the instruction does not set D2 to 0. Refer to the
Additional remarks below for more information about the error codes. When the instruction is not executed, D2
does not contain an error code.
Example
When X0.0 is switched from OFF to ON, the instruction reads the data stored in CR#2 from the right side of the first
module and stores the data in D100. If no error occurs, the code in D110 is 16#0000. 6_

Explanation
1. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.08.00 or later. For ISPSoft, we recommend using software version
3.12 and above. The timing to set this instruction is when the En setting changes from OFF to ON.
2. Module sets the serial number of modules at the right of the PLC. The first one is number 1, the second one is
number 2 and so on. Whatever modules at the right of the PLC must be numbered. The maximum number is 32.
The instruction is exclusive to the PU modules at the right of the PLC and is not applicable to the PU modules at the
6_
right of the remote module. If the specified module is not a PU module, the error flag Error will change to ON.
3. Axis sets the output axis number for the specified PU module. The setting values 1~4 represent the axis1~axis4
output of the specified PU module respectively. If the PU module has no corresponding axis number for output, the
error flag Error will change to ON.
See the following combination of axis numbers and corresponding output points of PU modules.
PU module name Axis 1 Axis 2 Axis 3 Axis 4
AS02PU Y0.0 / Y0.1 Y0.2 / Y0.3 NA NA
AS04PU Y0.0 / Y0.1 Y0.2 / Y0.3 Y0.4 / Y0.5 Y0.6 / Y0.7
4. Mode sets the output mode of an output axis and the setting values are explained in the following table.

6. Done, an output of the specified PU module has been set as the completion flag. When Done is On, it indicates
that the parameter setting is successful. You can continue to perform positioning output based on the state of the
completion flag (ON). The clearing of the Done flag need be conducted by manual. The Done flag changes to ON
only when the setting is completed.
7. Error, an output of the specified PU module is a parameter error flag. Most parameter ranges are filtered
automatically by the PLC. Thus if the error flag is ON, it means that there is no specified PU module or the PU
module number is wrong or the output axis number is incorrect.
6-436
8. The instruction is a pulse instruction. Even if the A contact is adopted as the condition contact, PU module
parameters are also set only when the instruction is started. Therefore, if a parameter value is to be updated,
restart the instruction to make the parameter set again.
9. Since the set parameters are delivered through the module communication command, confirm the state of the
output Done or Error before a parameter value is modified and then proceed with relevant operations.
10. ErrCode shows error codes. See the description as follows.
16#1400 The module does not support the function.
16#1401 The data stored in the module is illegal or exceeds the allowed range.
16#1402 There is no response from the module; communication timeout occurs.
Programming Example: Refer to the description of DPUDRI instruction (API 1405) for more information.

Explanation
3.12 and above. The En setting must be set to ON so as to update the status of the selected axes continuously.
4. C_Posi sets the present position of the output axis for the specified PU module. The parameter value is a latched
value and stored in the PU module. If the value is to be cleared to 0, set ZeroS from OFF to ON when the instruction
is started.
5. Execute is an only-read flag which means the output axis of the specified PU module is outputting or not. When
Execute is On, it means the output is being conducted. When Execute is Off, it means the output axis is unused
and can accept the next output command.
6. Pause is an only-read flag to control the output axis of the specified PU module to pause its output. When Pause is
On, it means the output is paused, the present velocity is 0 and the present output has not reached the specified
target output position. If you restore the output, the flag will be cleared automatically.
Note: While Pause is On, Execute is constantly On as well.

7. Error is an only-read error flag which means an error occurs during the reading of the specified PU module. Refer
to the explanation of error codes in ErrCode.
8. After the PUSTAT instruction gives the pause command, the flags Execute, Pause and Error become read-only
flags and at the moment, their states cannot be modified. The Execute, Pause and Error flags can be set or cleared
only when the PUSTAT instruction is turned off.
9. ErrCode shows error codes and the explanations are seen in the following table.
16#1403 There is no such output axis number in the PU module.
16#1404 The output frequency of the PU module is illegal.
The output axis specified by the PU module is outputting data. It is not allowed to specify

TarPulse : Target number of output pulses

TarSpeed : Target output frequency
Error : Error flag
Explanation
3.12 and above. When En setting is set to ON, this instruction would be effective. Once the setting changes to OFF,
Output pulse would be terminated immediately.
6-440
4. TarPulse sets the number of output pulses. The pulse number is a positive signed 32-bit value. When the value is
0, it means the output is always being performed, the number of output pulses is not limited and the output is not
stopped until the instruction is disabled. When the value is less than 0, the PLC automatically uses 2s complement
to transform the value into a positive integer as the number of output pulses.
5. TarSpeed sets the target output speed (Unit: Hz). The input value is a signed 32-bit. You can modify the target
frequency any time after the instruction is enabled and the PU module will automatically switch to the newly set target
frequency after outputting a full pulse.
Note: Before the target frequency is changed, please take into consideration whether the modified speed and PLC
scan time match or not.
Module Name TarSpeed Setting Range
AS02PU -200,000 (-200K) ~ 200,000 (200K)
AS04PU -100,000 (-100K) ~ 100,000 (100K)
6. When TarSpeed is a positive number (>0), it means that the “positive direction” output point is Off. When TarSpeed
is a negative number (<0), it means that the “negative direction” output point is On. When TarSpeed is 0, it means
that the output will be paused after the being executed pulse is output fully.
7. The instruction does not support the function of acceleration and deceleration. Use the DPUDRI instruction instead 6_
if you need the function of acceleration and deceleration.
8. The instruction can be used for the speed change. While the instruction is being executed, you can change the value
of TarSpeed so as to change the output speed.
9. When the outputs have reached the pulse number specified by TarPulse, the Done flag changes to ON. The Done
flag need be cleared by manual. The instruction sets the completion flag to ON only when the output is completed.
10. If any error occurs as the instruction is in process of the output, the Error flag changes to ON. Refer to the error
codes ErrCode shows for the trouble shooting.
The error codes that ErrCode shows are listed in the following table.
6-441
16#1401 The value stored in the module is illegal or exceeds the allowed range.
The output axis specified by the PU module is outputting data. It is not allowed to specify the
16#1405
output repeatedly.
16#1406 PU module stops Output pulse when the positive limit is reached.
16#1407 PU module stops Output pulse when the negative limit is reached.
Programming Example
1. Set the output point of AS02PU to be “Pulse Y0.0+ direction Y0.1” in HWCONFIG. All parameters of axis 1 are set
as default.
2. When M0=ON, execute DPUPLS on axis 1, outputting 20,000 pulses from Y0.0 at a frequency of 2kHz (without
acceleration and deceleration). When Y0.1=OFF, the direction is positive.
3. After Output pulses completed, M1 changes to ON.

RTarPosi : Number of output pulses for relative positioning
Error : Error flag
Explanation
Output pulse would decelerate until it stops.
6-443
4. RTarPosi sets the position for relative positioning. The pulse number is a signed 32-bit value. When the value is
greater than 0, the output will go in the positive direction (and the direction output point is off). When the value is less
than 0, the output will go in the negative direction (and the direction output point is on). When the value is 0, the
output completion flag Done changes to ON.
5. TarSpeed sets the target output frequency (Unit: Hz). The frequency value is a positive signed 32-bit integer. When
the value is less than 0, the instruction will automatically use 2’s complement to transform the value into a positive
integer. When the value is 0, the instruction will notify the module to enter the pause mode. The actual output is
decelerated at the deceleration rate till the output speed is equal to 0 and the pause flag changes to ON. Refer to
PUSTAT instruction for more details.
Module Name TarSpeed Setting Range
AS02PU -200,000 (-200K) ~ 200,000 (200K)
AS04PU -100,000 (-100K) ~ 100,000 (100K)
6. After the output is started, the target frequency is allowed to change any time. In the actual frequency change, the
PLC will automatically change the frequency based on the set acceleration and deceleration rate in the DPUCONF
instruction.
7. When the outputs have reached the pulse number for relative positioning specified by RTarPosi, the Done flag
changes to ON. The Done flag need be cleared by manual. The instruction sets the completion flag to ON only when

: Maximum output frequency value. Refer to the setting in the DPUCONF instruction for the parameter setting.
Alternatively, set the parameter value through HWCONFIG.
: The target frequency specified by the PU module output instruction. The target frequency output must not exceed
the maximum output frequency. If the maximum output frequency is exceeded, the maximum output frequency is
regarded as the output frequency.
: Starting/ending output frequency value. Refer to the setting in the DPUCONF instruction for the parameter setting.
: The acceleration time value. Refer to the setting in the DPUCONF instruction for the parameter setting.
6_
: The deceleration time value. Refer to the setting in the DPUCONF instruction for the parameter setting.
The acceleration and deceleration that the PU module controls is performed according to the fixed slope. So the
actual acceleration time and deceleration time change based on the output target frequency. The formula for
calculation of acceleration rate and deceleration rate are respectively shown as follows.
(Max. output frequency - starting frequency)/acceleration time;
(Max. output frequency - ending frequency)/deceleration time.
Programming Example:
1. Configure parameters of AS02PU module in HWCONFIG. Set “Axis 1, DOG, Rising-edge triggered” for input point
X0.0, “Axis 1, Z phase, Rising-edge triggered” for input point X0.1 and “Phase A Y0.0+ Phase B Y0.1” for output point.
Other parameters of axis 1 are set as default.
6-445
2. When M10 is set to ON, DPUCONF instruction would be executed for axis1 to change the output setting to 1 (Pulse
Y0.0+ Direction Y0.1) in Mode. Set SSpeed (the speed for starting) to 200Hz, Atime (acceleration time) to 200 ms,
Dtime (deceleration time) to 200ms, MSpeed (maximum output frequency) to 100kHz, Z_NO (Number of Z phases to
look for after returning to the home position) to 1, offset (the number of outputs after returning to the home position) to
-100, and set M11 to ON when the Done flag changes to ON.
3. When M0=ON, execute PUSTAT on axis1 to read the PU module output state. To clear current output position, you
can set M1 to ON so the current position of (rising-edge triggered) D0 on axis1 would be clear to 0.
4. When M20=ON, execute DPUZRN to perform homing on axis1 and execute DPUSTAT to display the current position
in D0. The output point Y0.0 outputs pulses at 1 kHz frequency to search home in positive direction. Once the near
home signal (DOG) is reached and X0.0=ON, the axis starts decelerating and moving in the negative direction in the
Jogspeed of 100Hz. When X0.0=OFF, the axis moves in the positive direction to search for Z phase until the first
rising-edge triggered signal of X0.1 (Z phase) is detected, then moves in negative direction after 100 output pulses
are complete. Finally, M21 would change to ON after the Done flag changes to ON.
5. Once M30=ON, DPUDRI would be executed on axis 1 to perform relative positioning output. And execute DPUSTAT
to display the current position in D0. And from there, the output point Y0.0 outputs 20,000 pulses at 2 kHz frequency
(relative addressing). If Y0.1=OFF, the direction is positive. Execute DPUSTAT to display the current position in D0.
Finally, M31 would change to ON after the Done flag changes to ON.

Explanation
2. ATarPosi is the position for absolute addressing. The input pulse number is a signed 32 bit value. The PU module
will automatically compare it with the present position. If the comparison result is greater than 0, the output will be
conducted in the positive direction (and the direction output point is off). If the comparison result is less than 0, the
output will be conducted in the negative direction and the direction output point is on). When the value is 0, the
instruction sets the Done flag to ON.
3. Refer to the DPUDRI instruction for the explanation of other parameters.
Programming Example:
1. Configure parameters of AS02PU module in HWCONFIG. Set “Pulse Y0.0+ Direction 0.1” for input point X0.0. Other
parameters of axis 1 are set as default.
2. When M0=ON, execute DPUDRA on axis 1 to output pulses from Y0.0 at 2kHz frequency before the current position
reaches 20,000 (absolute addressing). The direction would be positive if Y0.1=OFF.
3. After the Output pulse completed, M1 would change to ON.

than 50Hz through the Rate-value-based conversion, the output is still conducted at 50Hz.
8. Rate is the input / output rate and the value is a floating point number. The number of actual output pulses and
frequency are respectively equal to the input pulse number and frequency multiplied by the rate value.
For example: The input frequency is 100Hz and rate is 0.5. So the output frequency is 100x0.5=50Hz. If the
maximum output frequency after conversion exceeds 100KHz, the output frequency is limited to 100KHz.
Note: The long-time maximum frequency output may lead to the fact that as the MPG has stopped running, the
number of outputs is still increased and the output need keep going until it is complete.
9. OPulse shows the number of pulses which have been output. OSpeed displays the frequency at which the output
is being conducted. They are signed 32-bit values.
10. When the DPUMPG instruction is disabled, check the frequency at which the output is being conducted and see if it
has reached 0. If the instruction is disabled before the frequency reaches 0, the PU module will stop the output
immediately and the output of the pulses which are counted based on the conversion rate will not continue any more.

12. When the DPUMPG instruction is enabled or disabled, the PLC will have to notify the module to enable or disable
the high-speed counter function. Thus the instruction can not be used with API1410 DPUCNT together. Otherwise it
may occur that the two instructions enable or disable the counting of the module with each other.

3.12 and above.
2. The DPUCNT instruction supports AS02PU module only. When En setting is set to ON, this instruction would be
effective. Once the setting changes to OFF, the counting would be stopped immediately.
4. InMode sets the input mode of the encoder source and the frequency multiplication for counting.
See the explanation of InMode value in the following table.

Note: Phase A leads phase B, indicating counting in the positive direction.
Phase B leads phase A, indicating counting in the negative direction
Input Modes
Value
Input mode; set as the following values, otherwise the module will use the defaults to run.
16#0000 Reserved
16#0001 Onefold frequency A/B phase input
16#0002 Twofold frequency A/B phase input
16#0003 Reserved
_6 16#0004 Fourfold frequency A/B phase input (default)

Phase B ON: counting in the positive direction

16#0006
Phase B OFF: counting in the negative direction
Single phase pulse input (A+/A-: pulse input)

16#0007
Others Reserved
5. Period is the setting value of a cycle time for capturing the frequency within the range of 10ms ~ 1000ms. If the
setting value exceeds the range, the maximum value or minimum value will be automatically taken as the setting
value by the PLC.
6-462
6. InPulse is the number of already input pulses, which is a signed 32-bit value. The counting value is a latched value.
If the value need be cleared to 0, just set ZeroS from OFF to ON while the instruction is running.
7. InSpeed displays the counting value for every Period time, which is a signed 32-bit value. If you need convert it into
the value with the unit of Hz, use the calculation formula for conversion by yourself.
16#1406 The PU module does not support the counting function.
9. When the DPUCNT instruction is enabled or disabled, the PLC will have to notify the module to enable or disable
the high-speed counter function. Thus the instruction can not be used with API1409 DPUMPG together. Otherwise
it may occur that the two instructions enable or disable the counting of the module with each other.
Programming Example
1. When M0=ON, PUCNT would be executed and InMode is set to Twofold frequency A/B phase input.
2. When M1=ON, the counted number of pulses on axis 1 in InPulse would be cleared.
3. When the number of pulses is 100 and the input frequency is 10Hz, the values in InPulse and InSpeed will be seen 6_
as 200 pulses and 20Hz.

Explanation
1. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.08.00 or later and ISPSoft V3.09 or later.
2. The LCCAL instruction supports AS02LC module only. Before the instruction is used, you should get to know the
configuration position of current module from HWCONFIG.
3. Group is the group number of the specified LC module connected to the right of the PLC or the remote module. The
number of the PLC is 0, the number of the first remote module is 1 and so on. The maximum group number is 15.
If the specified module is not a LC module, the Error flag will change to ON.
6_
number 2 and so on. Whatever modules at the right of the PLC must be numbered. The maximum number is 32. If
the specified module is not a LC module, the error flag Error will change to ON.
5. ChNo is a channel number of the specified LC module. If the input value is not a channel number of the LC module,
the error flag Error will change to ON.
6. Trigger is the command of triggering the single-point calibration. As Trigger changes from OFF to ON, the LC module
will be notified for calibration. Done changes to ON when the calibration is done. If all-point calibration has been
done, ADone will changes to ON as well. Before the next calibration point is calibrated, you need observe that Done
has changed to ON and then set Trigger to OFF. Then the instruction will clear the Done flag as Trigger changes
from ON to OFF.
7. TPoint is the number of total points for calibration. After the instruction is started, the value can not be changed again
since the TPoint value has been transmitted to the LC module for calibration as the instruction is started initially.
8. TWeight is the calibration weight value and it occupies two devices. If the TPoint is 3 and the starting device for
TWeight is D200, here TWeight occupies 6 devices, D200~D205. The calibration weight value for the first TPoint
is in D200 (Low Word) and D201 (High Word). The calibration weight value for the second TPoint is in D202 (Low
Word) and D203 (High Word). The calibration weight value for the third TPoint is in D204 (Low Word) and D205
6-465
(High Word). Once the execution of this instruction started, the value of TWeight is sent to the LC module for
calibration. You cannot change the value of TWeight after the instruction is executed. the value of the first point for
calibration weight should be 0 (zero correction). If not, the Error flag will be ON.
9. Once ADone changes from OFF to ON, the entire calibration will be stopped. The calibration can be performed again
if the LCCAL instruction is enabled again after disabled.
10. CPoint is the number of points which have been calibrated and can not be modified by users. When CPoint value >=
TPoint value, the calibration is considered to be completed and the ADone flag changes to ON.
11. When the LCCAL instruction is enabled initially, the CPoint value is automatically cleared to 0 and Trigger, Done
and ADone change to OFF and the calibration is prepared. After Trigger is set from OFF to ON and the LC module
completes the calibration, the value of CPoint will be automatically added by 1 and the Done flag changes to ON.
You can observe current points for which the calibration has been completed via the value. For example, as the
CPoint value is 2, it means that Trigger is triggered twice and the module has completed the 2-point calibration.

Explanation of the timing points in the above sequence diagram:
  The LCCAL instruction is enabled and the CPoint value and the flags Trigger, Done, ADone and Error are all
cleared automatically.
  Trigger the calibration flag.
  The instruction finds a module number error and displays the error code of LC module number error
  Disable the LCCAL instruction.
  After a trigger, the LC module completes the single-point calibration and the CPoint value is added by 1 and the
Done flag changes to ON.
  Clear the trigger signal flag Trigger.
  Subsequently, the Done flag is cleared by the instruction.
  After a trigger, the LC module completes the entire calibration and the CPoint value is added by 1 and both of
the flags Done and ADone change to ON.
Example
When PLC runs, the value of the first point for calibration weight is 0 written in D0 and D1. The value of the second point
for calibration weight is 500.0 written in D2 and D3.
  When M0 switches to ON, you can use DLCCAL instruction to calibrate.
  Make sure there is no load on the weighing platform. Set M50 to ON and then start zero correction (set the value of 6_
the first point to zero). When D100 = 1 and M100 is ON, you have the first point calibrated. M50 switches to OFF.
  Put a 500 g weight on the weighing platform, set M50 to ON and then start a 500 g calibration for the second point.
When D100 = 2 and M101 is ON, you have the second point calibrated. M50 switches to OFF and MO to OFF.

Explanation
2. The LCWEI instruction supports AS series LC module only. Before the instruction is used, you should get to know
the configuration position of current module from HWCONFIG.
3. Group is the group number of the specified LC module connected to the right of the PLC or the remote module. The
number of the PLC is 0, the number of the first remote module is 1 and so on. The maximum group number is 15.
If the specified module is not a LC module, the Error flag will change to ON.
number 2 and so on. Whatever modules at the right of the PLC must be numbered. The maximum number is 32. If
the specified module is not a LC module, the error flag Error will change to ON.
_6
5. ChNo is a channel number of the specified LC module. If the input value is not a channel number of the LC module,
the error flag Error will change to ON.
6. Stable sets a value within the stable-weight range. It is a raw data. The value can be set to a floating-point value
within the range of 0.0~100000.0 and the maximum value or minimum value will be automatically taken as the setting
if the setting value exceeds the range. The timing of making the parameter value valid is when the instruction is
enabled for the first time. If the value in the LC module need be modified, disable the instruction first, set a new range
value and then enable the instruction for a new setting.
7. After the LCWEI instruction is enabled, the specified channel will be automatically changed into the display mode of
“net weight”. If you need to know the gross weight (total weight), add TareW value and Weight value by yourself.
8. ZeroS is the flag to set the present weight to 0. When the ZeroS flag changes from OFF to ON, the values of TareW
and Weight are cleared to 0.
9. TareS is the flag to set the tare weight. When TareS changes from OFF to ON, present Weight value is moved to
TareW and the Weight value will be cleared to 0. When TareS changes from ON to OFF, TareW value will be moved
back to the present Weight value and the TareW value will be cleared to 0.
10. Weight is the weight value measured by deducting the tare weight. You can observe if the TareW value exists or not
in order to know whether the tare weight function has been enabled. When the TareW value is 0, it indicates that the
tare weight has not been set.
6-470

values in the following table.

12. During the weight reading, Status will display corresponding error code and the Error flag changes to ON as an
error occurs in the LC module. When the status returns to normal, the Error flag will be cleared automatically. For
details on error status, refer to the explanation of status control buffers in the LC module manual.

Explanation of the timing points in the above sequence diagram:
  Enable the LCWEI instruction.
  After getting the command of clearing data to 0, the instruction will clear the values of TareW, Weight and Status.
  Put the measured stuff on the weighing platform. When the stable weight value is measured, the Status value
becomes 1 and Weight displays the weight value.
  Setting TareS to ON, the Weight value moves to TareW and then the value of Weight is cleared.
  Setting TareS to OFF, the TareW value moves back to Weight and then the TareW value is cleared.
  Put another measured stuff on the weighing platform. At the moment, Status enters the status of weight
measuring.

Example
After calibration is done, you can use DLCWEI instruction to weigh.
1. Weighing: Leave a weight of 500 g on the weighing platform. When M1 switches to ON, the value in D204 shows
500.0.
2. Set up the tare weight
  Leave a packaging (100 g) on the weighing platform. The value in D204 shows 100.0.
  When M151 switches to ON, Weight value (D204) is moved to TareW value (D202). After moving, clear the
weight value in D204.
  D204 = 0.0 and D202 = 100.0. The setup of tare weight is complete.
3. Clear the tare weight
  When M151 switches to OFF, the TareW value (D202) is moved back to Weight value (D204). After moving,
clear the TareW value in D202.
_6   D202 = 0.0 and D204 = 100.0. The setup of clearing the tare weight is complete.
4. Specify a stable-weight range (checking the stability)
  Before executing this instruction, you need to specify the stable-weight range. Here we set D200 = 10.0.
  Leave a 500 g weight on the weighing platform. When the measurement result is between 490 ~ 510 g,
D210 =1 (the weight is stable).

Example
1. You need to set up the parameters before executing DMPID. Switch the operand EN from False to True to execute
this instruction and once the instruction is enabled, the parameters are applied to the modules. If you need to
change parameters during execution, you can use the UPDATE flag to update the parameters (including PID_RUN ~
CYCLE). After the parameters are updated, PLC clears the UPDATE flag.
2. When M0 is ON, the instruction is executed. When M2 is ON, the DMPID starts to process. When M2 is OFF, MV
value is 0. And the value in MV is stored in D26. When M0 is OFF, the instruction is not executed. And the values in
the instruction is not changed.
3. When the mode is set to 1, the system starts to auto tuning the parameters for the temperature control. After tuning
is done, the system switches to auto control mode (PID_MODE is set to 0) and fill in the appropriate parameters
(Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, Td_Kd, Tf, ALPHA and BETA) to data devices. You can also use retentive devices to retain PID
parameters.
4. You should convert the MV output value based on your needs within the range from 0.0 to 100.0. This example
converts the MV output value to PWM output. Use floating point division instruction F/ to convert the MV value to
Duty cycle ranging from 0% to 100%, and then use floating point multiplication F* to multiply the Duty Cycle and the
period value of PWM so as to get the width of output pulses.
5. Input the width and period of output pulses to GPWM parameters and PWM control can be performed in the
designated Output pulse device.

becomes 0 and switches off the auto tuning mode automatically.

ERR_DBW
When the PV (present value) is in the range of ERR_DBW, at the beginning, the present error is brought into the
PID algorithm according to the normal processing, and then the CPU module checks whether the present error
meets the cross status condition: PV (present value) goes beyond the SV (target value). Once the condition is met,
the present error is counted as 0 when applying the PID algorithm. After the PV (present value) is out of the
ERR_DBW range, the present error is brought into the PID algorithm again. If PID_DE is true, that means it uses the
variations in the PV to calculate the control value of the derivative, and after the cross status condition is met, the
PLC treats Δ PV as 0 to apply the PID algorithm. (Δ PV= current PV – previous PV). In the following example, the
present error is brought into the PID algorithm according to the normal processing in section A ,and the present error
or Δ PV is counted as 0 to apply the PID algorithm in the section B.
_6 α, β Value
To reduce overshoot, you can use parameters of ALPHA or BETA in the beginning of the PID operation or while SV
(target value) varies to compensate initial value of integral calculus (for heating up or cooling down). See the images
below. Use ALPHA parameter to reduce overshoot while the temperature is climbing up. Use BETA parameter to
reduce overshoot while the temperature is dropping.

Formula of the output cycle:

Set the output cycle according to the environment. If the environmental temperature changes not so aggressively, you
can set a bigger output cycle.
 Output pulse width = MV (%) x output cycle
Execute the general pulse with modulation instruction (GPWM) to set Output pulse width and output cycle sampling time
to manage the cycle.
Example
If the output cycle is 2000 ms, then the output value is 50% after the PID algorithm is implemented.
 Output pulse width = 50% × 2000 ms = 1000 ms
In other words, the GWPM instruction can be set to Output pulse width = 1000 and output cycle = 2000.
t =10 0 0 ms
Ou tp u t Y 1 0
T =2 00 0 ms
Note
6_
1. When tuning the parameters Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, and Td_Kd (PID_MODE=0), set the Kc_Kp value first, and then set
the Ti_Ki and Td_Kd values to 0. In a controlled environment, you can increase the values of Ti_Ki (from
smaller to bigger) and Td_Kd (from bigger to smaller). When the value of Kc_Kp is 1, the proportional gain is
100%. That is, the error values increase by a factor of one. When the proportional gain is less than 100%, the
error values decrease. When the proportional gain is greater than 100%, the error values increase.
2. The parameters which have been automatically tuned are not necessarily suitable for every controlled
environment. You can, therefore, further modify the automatically-tuned parameters, but it is recommended
that you only modify the values of Ti_Ki or Td_Kd.
3. The operand CYCLE is to set the sampling time to use the PID algorithm and refresh MV.
4. When the number of the channel for measurement is changed, the time to refresh the measured value also
changes. For example, the measured value is refreshed every 200 ms when there is only 1 channel for
measurement. The measured value is refreshed every 800 ms when there are 4 channels for measurement.
The Kc_Kp, Ti_Ki, Td_Kd parameters may differ when the number of channel for measure is different.

Explanation
2. Use this instruction with DHCCNT instruction. When executing DHCCNT instruction, the counting starts. And you can
use DHCCAP to capture the counter value. When DHCCNT stopped, the counter value stops updating. And the
captured value stays the same.
3. Before executing this instruction, you need to set up TrgSel. Once En is activated, the PLC scans the values in TrgSel
immediately. If you need to edit the values in TrgSel, set new values in TrgSel and stop the instruction and then
execute the instruction again.

capture function of external input point is invalid.
7. Capture the current counter value and store it in Capt 1 or Capt 2. When TrgSel = 0, it captures the counter value
when the Z-phase input point is rising-edge triggered and stores the value in Capt1 and it captures the counter value
when the Z-phase input point is falling-edge triggered and stores the value in Capt2. When TrgSel = 1, it captures the
counter value when Match 1 is OFF  ON in the other channel and store the captured value in Capt1 it captures the
counter value when Match 2 is OFF  ON in the other channel and store the captured value in Capt2.
6-496
8. Flags of Cmplt1 and Cmplt2 are indicators to see if the captures in Capt1 and Capt2 are complete. When
Cmplt1/Cmplt2 is OFF  ON , it indicates the values in Cmplt1/Cmplt2 are updated. You can clear the flag to OFF.
Even if you did not clear the Cmplt flags to OFF, the captured values can still be updated.
9. If En ON  OFF, it indicates the capture function is disabled. The values in Capt1 and Capt2 will not be updated. The
flags of Cmplt1 and Cmplt2 will be cleared off.

Example 1: Capture the counter value when the Z phase input point is triggered.
1. You need to set the setting value in Z phase of the Channel 1 to Capture in HWCONFIG to work with this trigger
mode.
2. Set the value in TrgSel to 0 for DHCCAP instruction. When M0 = ON, DHCCAP instruction starts to wait for the Z
phase input point to be rising-edge or falling-edge triggered.
3. When the Z phase input point of channel 1 is rising-edge triggered, it captures the counter value 1800 and stores the
value in Capt1. And the flag of Cmplt1 is OFF  ON.
4. When the Z phase input point of channel 1 is falling-edge triggered, it captures the counter value 6000 and stores
the value in Capt2. And the flag of Cmplt2 is OFF  ON.
5. The Cmplt flag is not cleared to OFF. New captured value is still updated in Capt1 and Capt2. Here you can see the
new captured value 8500 is updated in Capt1, when the Z phase input point of channel 1 is falling-edge triggered.
6. The Z phase input point of channel 1 is falling-edge triggered again, it captures the counter value 11000 and stores

Example 2: Capture the counter value by executing DHCCMP instruction and when Match 1/ Match 2 is OFF  ON in
the other channel.
1. Supposing you execute DHCCAP instruction on channel 2 and set TrgSel = 1, and use channel 1 for the execution of
DHCCMP. When Match 1/ Match 2 is OFF  ON on channel 1, the channel 2 is triggered to capture the current value
and stores it in Capt 1 or Capt 2. Even if you have set the setting value in Z phase of the appointed channel to Capture
in HWCONFIG, when TrgSel = 1, this capture function of Z phase input point is invalid.
2. The Comp 1 (Match 1) is OFF  ON on channel 2, new captured value 2000 on channel 1 is updated in Capt1 and
Cmplt 1 is OFF  ON.
3. The Comp 2 (Match 2) is OFF  ON on channel 2, new captured value 8000 on channel 1 is updated in Capt2 and

Explanation
2. Before executing this instruction, you need to set up DOdata. Once En is activated, the PLC scans the values in
DOdata immediately. DOdata is the initial status of the output points Y0.0 ~ Y0.3. If you need to change the status of
the output point, you need to set new values in DOdata and set the Update to ON. Once the values in DOdata is
updated, the Update switches to OFF.

b15~b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
NA Action of Y0.3 Action of Y0.2 Action of Y0.1 Action of Y0.0

5. DOstat: setting for the state of the output points
b15~b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
NA State of Y0.3 State of Y0.2 State of Y0.1 State of Y0.0
NA 0：OFF 1：ON
6. DOstat: If you stopped executing the instruction, DOstat will stop updating.
ErrCode Description
One of the output point of the HC module is executing output. Other channels cannot perform
16#1411
the same task at the same time. (DOstat can still be updated.)
8. When the instructions DHCCMP or DHCCMPT are being executed, you cannot change the output points via DOdata
but DOstat can keep updating.

_6
9. To set up the initial values for the output points of DHCCMP, you can start HCDO instruction first and then DHCCMP
or DHCCMPT instruction. If you need to change the output points, you can stop DHCCMP or DHCCMPT instruction
and then use DOdata of HCDO to update the actions of the output points.
Programming Example: Set the external output point

1. Firstly, determine the initial state of Y0.0~Y0.3. In this example, the state of Y0.0~Y0.3 is set to ON, therefore you
should set the output point DOData of HCDO instruction to 15 before switching M0 to ON.
2. When M0=ON, Y0.0~Y0.3 would be changed to ON immediately.
3. DOStat shows the current state of output point, which is 15 here. While M0=ON, the value of DOStat would be
updated in realtime if the state of Y0.0~Y0.3 changes as a result of the control from DHCCMP or HCCMPT.

Explanation
1. This instruction is for AS02HC-A only. The counter value either by counting up or counting down met the set value is
a MATCH. Once you have a MATCH, the system reacts accordingly to what you have set, including counter actions
and which output point to output. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.08.or later and ISPSoft V3.10 or
later.
_6
2. Use this instruction with DHCCNT instruction. When executing DHCCNT instruction, the counting starts. And then you
can use DHCCMP instruction to do the comparison.
3. Before executing this instruction, you need to set up Comp1, Comp2, Action1, Action2, Yno1, and Yno2. Once En
is activated, the PLC scans the values in Comp1, Comp2, Action1, Action2, Yno1, and Yno2 immediately.
4. You can edit the values in Comp1, Comp2, Action1, Action2, Yno1, and Yno2 during operation. Set new values and
set the Update to ON. Once the values are updated, the Update, Match1 and Match2 switch to OFF.
7. Comp 1and Comp 2 are the values for comparison (The value in Comp 1 and Comp 2 should be different.). If the
counter value of ChNo met the set value, its corresponding flag Match 1 / Match2 will be ON. The appointed output
point by Yno1 and Yno2 reacts according to the settings for Action.
6-504
8. When the counter type is linear, the value in Comp 1 and Comp 2 should satisfy the following condition: the smallest
counter value < Comp < the largest counter value. If you are using SSI (serial synchronous interface) encoder and
the setting of counter mode is in Absolute Position. The value in Comp 1 and Comp 2 should satisfy the following
condition: 0< Comp<2 (MT+ST Length).
9. The timing to be considered reaching the set value varies according to different settings on input interfaces in
HWCONFIG, for example pulse input and SSI input.

Pulse Input -
Timing to consider as reaching the target
SSI Input -
If the input interface is pulse input, the timing to be considered to meet the set value is before the counting leaving
the set value. Take Comp = 5 as an example, when the counting goes from 5 to 6 or from 5 to 4, the timing here is
considered the set value reached.
If the input interface is SSI input, the timing to be considered reaching the set value is right before the counting 6_
touching the set value. Take Comp = 5 as an example, when the counting goes from 4 to 5 or from 6 to 5, the timing
here is considered the set value reached.
10. If the counter value of ChNo met the set value, its corresponding flag Match 1 / Match2 will be ON. The appointed
output point by Yno1 and Yno2 reacts according to the settings for Actions: Action 1 (for the appointed output point
by Yno1) and Action 2 (for the appointed output point by Yno2).

Note: there is a time difference between meeting the set value and for the action to take place. Up to 100 us of time
difference can be expected.
11. Set the value in Yno1 and Yno2 to assign the output points Y0.0, Y0.1, Y0.2, and Y0.3. You can have two sets of
values (Yno1 and Yno2) to achieve two sets of comparisons. After this instruction starts to execute, you cannot use
HCDO instruction to control the output points.

12. The counter value either by counting up or counting down met the set value is a MATCH. The flags of Match 1 and
Match 2 are the indicators. When the counter value met the set value, its corresponding Match 1 or Match 2 flag will
be ON. Either one of the followings occurs, the flags of Match 1 and Match 2 will be cleared to OFF, when the PLC
CPU stops, clears the counters, DHCCMP instruction switches from OFF to ON, or Update flag is set to ON.
13. The flags of Match 1 and Match 2 can be used for interrupt devices I, ranging from I400 to I431.
Note: The frequency of the interrupt device I with the same numbering should not be higher than 800Hz.
14. If you stopped executing the instruction, its relative compared values and its output function will stop updating.

CurNo ： Current group number for comparison

Explanation
1. This instruction is for AS02HC-A only. It is used for comparing the counter value in a cyclic manner and once the value
is matched, the set action is taken. When the last group is done for comparison, set the counter value as the first
compared value and the comparison goes back to the first group.
2. This instruction can only work for one direction. If you change the direction in the middle of instruction execution, the
result may be incorrect. Up to 10 compared values can be set. You need to arrange the values (should be non-identical)
in order, either ascending or descending. When in ascending order, the counting method is count-up and the values
used should be positive integer numbers. When in descending order, the counting method is count-down and the
6_
values used should be negative integer numbers. When the counter value matched the compared value, the output
points or the counter react according to your settings.
3. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.08.or later and ISPSoft V3.10 or later.
can use DHCCMPT instruction to do the comparison.
5. Before executing this instruction, you need to set up CmpLen, CompS, ActionS, YnoS and InoS. Once En is
activated, the PLC scans the values in CmpLen, CompS, ActionS, YnoS and InoS immediately.
6. You can edit the values in CmpLen, CompS, ActionS, YnoS and InoS during operation. Set new values and set the
Update to ON. Once the values are updated, the flag of Update switches to OFF automatically.
9. CmpLen: the data length for comparison in a cycle; the setting range is 2~10. When the setting value is out of the
range, the system cannot execute the instruction and an error code appears.
6-513
10. CompS is where you store the values (in 32-bit integer format) for comparison. It takes several space of Dword in
CmpLen consecutively. You need to arrange the values (should be non-identical) in order, either ascending or
descending. When in ascending order, the counting method is count-up and the values used should be positive integer
numbers. When in descending order, the counting method is count-down and the values used should be negative
integer numbers. It is suggested to use array of Dword to declare.
When the counter type is linear, the value in CompS should satisfy the following condition: the smallest counter
value < CompS < the largest counter value.
If you are using SSI (serial synchronous interface) encoder and the setting of counter mode is in Absolute Position.
The value in CompS should satisfy the following condition: 0< CompS<2 (MT+ST Length).

2. Executing the instruction (En OFF  ON) and set the Update to ON. Once the values are updated, the instruction
uses the updated values for comparison. The current counted number less than the corresponding value in
Compsis set for comparison. The starting current value is less than 1000, its corresponding CurNo is 0 and no
action is taken.

3. When the counter value met 1000 (999→1000), its corresponding CurNo switches from 0 to 1 and Y0.0 switches
from OFF to ON, and I400 interrupt is executed. If the input interface is pulse, the comparison begins when the
counter value is reaching 1001 (1000→1001).
6. Follow the same rule to do the comparison, until the CurNo is 10. After the last comparison is done, set the counter
value to 1000 so that the CurNo can go back to 1.
7. If you are using the ring counter, when the counter value met 1000 again, the comparison starts again. The CurNo is
1, Y0.0 switches from OFF to ON, and I400 interrupt is executed. And follow the same rule to do the comparison.

3. Before executing this instruction, you need to set up Cnt/Rev, Smpl and Avg. Once En is activated, the PLC scans
the values in Cnt/Rev, Smpl and Avg immediately.
4. You can edit the values in Cnt/Rev, Smpl and Avg during operation. Set new values and set the Update to ON. Once
the values are updated, the Update flag switches to OFF.
7. Cnt/Rev: Counted value of the encoder revolution for one time, ranging from 1 to 4294967295
(H’00000001~H’FFFFFFFF).
8. Smpl: Sampling cycle, ranging from 1 to 1000, unit: ms. Different values set in Smpl and Freq for output and RPM
_6 for output may cause different resolutions.
Resolution of Frequency = 1000 ÷ Smpl (unit: Hz)
Cnt
Resolution of RPM = 60000 ÷ �Smpl × � (unit: rev/min)
Rev
The start of sampling cycle and the current counted number (CurCnt) are two basic components for the calculation of
revolution. Therefore you need to take the following factors that may affect the measurement results into account.

Programming Example 1: Incremental encoder

The motor speed can be monitored by executing DHCMEAS instruction as the following procedure shown. The
resolution of the encoder in this example is set to 1000 PPR.
Motor Encoder
1. Set the input interface of the channel 1 to pulse input or SSI input in HWCONFIG. And set the counter type to ring
counter.
2. Set the value in Cnt/Rev to 1000, the value in Smpl to 1000 and the value in Avg to 10.
3. When M0 switches to ON, the counter would start to count and configure DHCMEAS parameters in module’s
settings at the same time for measuring frequencies and speed, which the results would be updated in the display of
Freq and RPM every 1000ms.
4. While the motor is running and the encoder receives pulses of 5kHz, the results would be displayed as 5kHz fin Freq
and 300 rev/min in RPM. In this example, the encoder speed is the motor speed, so the motor here would be 300
rev/min.

6-522
Programming Example2: Absolute SSI Encoder (27-bit)

Continued with the previous example, now if changing the incremental encoder to the 13-bit absolute SSI encoder, the
setting steps for DHCMEAS parameters are shown as follows.
1. Set the input interface of the channel 1 to SSI input in HWCONFIG
2. Set the value in Cnt/Rev to 8192, the value in Smpl to 1000 and the value in Avg to 10.
3. When M0 switches to ON, the counter would start to count and configure DHCMEAS parameters in module’s
settings at the same time for measuring frequencies and speed, which the results would be updated in the display of
Freq and RPM every 1000ms.
4. While the motor is running and the speed of position changes of the absolute encoder with SSI is 4095 LSB/Sec, the
results would be displayed as 4095kHz in Freq and 30 rev/min in RPM. In this example, the encoder speed is the
motor speed, so the motor here would be 30 rev/min.

Explanation
1. This instruction is for analog input modules (AS04AD-A, AS06XA-A, AS02ADH-A) to enable or disable the record
function and send the record data to the designated Datalog devices. This instruction is available for PLC with FW
V1.10.00 or later and ISPSoft V3.13 or later.
2. The description of record period and log points is specified in the following table. Refer to the description concerning
Mode for more details.
Model Record period Number of records
AS04AD-A Fixed period mode:

A fixed number of 500
AS06XA-A The setting range is from 1 to 100 and the time unit is fixed to 10ms.
Fixed period mode, Fixed period + Trigger start mode, Fixed period +
Trigger position assign mode:
The setting range is from 1 to 32000 and the options for time unit are
20us,40us, and 80us. 6_

(Note: The time unit is the sampling period set in HWCONFIG.)
Point Logging mode: The setting range is from

AS02ADH-A
A point would be recorded once detecting a triggering signal at the 1 to 2000.
external input point not within a fixed period. The trigger timing for
external input points is set in HWCONFIG.
Trigger timing of channel1 is when rising edge or falling edge is
detected at X0.0.
Trigger timing of channel2 is when rising edge or falling edge is
detected at X0.1.
3. Group is used to specify the analog input module connected to the right side of PLC directly or connected to the
remote module that acts as PLC, e.g. the PLC is number 0, the first remote module would be number 1 and so on.
The maximum group number is 15.
5. ChNo: The specified channel number. Channel1 would be numbered 1 and channel 2 is numbered 2.

6. Mode: Record mode. Modes supported by the corresponding models are listed as follows.
Models Mode Mode name Description
AS04AD-A
K0 Fixed period Perform recording periodically.
AS06XA-A
K0 Fixed period Perform recording periodically.
Wait for trigger signal detected at external input
K1 Fixed period + Trigger start points. After received, periodic recording would
be performed.
No fixed period for recording. One log point

AS02ADH-A
K2 Point logging would be recorded each time a trigger signal is
detected at the external input point.
You can specify the external trigger timing to

Fixed period + Trigger position
K3 record the data logs during the periods before
assign
and after the trigger timing.
(1) Fixed period mode: Set Mode=0, the data recording would be performed according to the pre-defined record
period when EN switches to ON. After the recording of a specified number of log points is complete, the Cmplt
flag would be set to High automatically.
Example:
_6
Set Points = 2000
1 2
200 0 poin ts 200 0 poin ts
0 t
EN
CurNo 0 1~1999 2000 0~1999 2000
Cmplt
(2) Fixed period + Trigger start mode: Set Mode=1 and switch instruction EN to ON before the recording starts.
When a trigger signal is detected at the external input point, start recording based on the pre-defined record
period. And the Cmplt flag is set to High automatically when completed. Before the recording is complete, any
operation at the external input points does NOT affect the proceeding of record. When the recording of log points
is complete and the Cmplt flag is High, trigger the external input points again to start a new cycle of recording;
the instruction EN does NOT required to be turned OFF and then ON again to start another new recording.

The feature of Fixed period + Trigger Start is similar to Fixed period. But the start timing of recording in Fixed
period mode would be delayed as a result of PLC scan time and module communication time, which is shown
in the following illustration. It is assumed that M0 is the device to control EN of ADLOG instruction. We can see
when M0 switches from OFF to ON, the module does not start recording immediately but with a slight delay.

(3) Point Logging mode: Set Mode=2, turn the instruction EN to ON before the recording starts. One log point would
be recorded for each triggering at external input point until it reaches the pre-defined point number, Cmplt flag
would set to High automatically. If you need to the recording to be continued after the Cmplt flag is set to High,
execute the instruction again.
Example:
Set Points = 2000, the trigger timing for external input point is set to rising-edge triggered.

_6 (4) Fixed period + Trigger position Assign mode: Set Mode=3 and set parameters Points and PostTrg according
to your requirements. This mode is to trigger at the external input point and record the pre-defined number of
log points before and after the triggering occurs. When using EN to turn on this mode, AS02ADH-A would start
waiting for signals to be triggered at external input. And the sampling would start right after, until it reaches the
pre-defined point number, and then Cmplt flag would set to High automatically. The value in CurNo is 0 before
triggered, and after triggered, the modules start to send the before-triggered data log to the PLC CPU . Therefore
the value of CurNo would catch up to the number of accumulated log points.
6-528
Example
Set Mode=3, Points = 2000, and PostTrg = 1500 so the position of point 501 (Points – PostTrg）would be the first record
after an external trigger signal is detected.

7. Period is set for the record period, which is detailed as follows:
Model Setting Range for Period Period Unit
AS04AD-A
1~100 The unit is fixed to be 10ms, unchangeable.
AS06XA-A
The sampling period would need to be set in HWCONFIG with
AS02ADH-A 1~32000 options of 20us, 40us, and 80us.
If set “Mode=2:Point Logging”, the value of Period would be invalid.
8. Points is the number of total records which is only applicable for AS02ADH-A, and can set a maximum of 2000 records. 6_
For other models, the setting value is fixed to 500.
Model Setting range for total records
AS04AD-A
The value is fixed to be 500, other setting value is invalid.
AS06XA-A
AS02ADH-A Configurable, the setting value ranges from1 to 2000.
9. PostTrg is the number of log points recorded after Trigger occurs which should be applied with Points, to record the
number of all records, including data before and after the triggering. PostTrg is only applicable for Fixed period +
Trigger position assign mode (Mode=3) and invalid for other modes. Please note that the value of PostTrg should not
be greater than the value in Points (the number of all records), or the value in PostTrg would be replaced with the
value in Points. For example, if Points＝100 and PostTrg＝200, the value in PostTrg would be seen as the value in
Points, which is 100, since the value in PostTrg is greater than the value in Points (the number of all records).
Therefore, only a number of 100 points would be recorded after the triggering occurs.
Model Setting range for PostTrg value
AS02ADH-A ０~2000 point (Should not be greater than the value in Points)
6-529
Example
Set Points = 1000 and PostTrg = 700, and then there would be 1000 logs, including 300 pieces of data before triggering
and 700 pieces of data after triggering.

10. Datalog is the device to store data logs. If selecting integral to be the format of output values of AD module, we
suggest to use it with 16-bit ADLOG instruction. A space of 500 words would be occupied by using AS04AD-A or
AS06XA-A, while a space ranging from 1 to 2000 words (based on the number of total records) could be occupied by
using AS02ADH-A model. (if using 32-bits DADLOG instruction, the 16-bit data would be expanded to 32 bits which
the data space is taken doubly.) If selecting floating point to be the format of output values of AD module, you must
use it with 32-bit ADLOG instruction. A space of 1000 words would be occupied by using AS04AD-A or AS06XA-A,
while a space ranging from 2 to 4000 words (based on the number of total records) could be occupied by using
AS02ADH-A.
11. CurNo is the number of records which has been sent back to the PLC by the module. When the recording is in progress,
the value of CurNo may not be able to be viewed in a consecutive order as a result of impacts from scan period.
12. Cmplt, the completion flag is used for indicating the logs recording is complete. When Cmplt switches from OFF to
_6
ON, it is indicated that all the log data has been sent to the designated Datalog device. When EN switches from OFF
to ON, the Cmplt flag would be initialized to OFF automatically.

13. If you stop executing this instruction, the designated channel would stop updating the right side values.

Explanation
1. ADPEAK is dedicated for analog input modules (AS04AD-A, AS08AD-B, AS08AD-C, AS06XA-A, AS02ADH-A) to
enable and disable the recording of peak values. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.10.00 or later and
ISPSoft V3.13 or later.
2. Group is used to specify the analog input module connected to the right side of PLC directly or connected to the
remote module that acts as PLC, e.g. the PLC is number 0, the first remote module would be number 1 and so on.
The maximum group number is 15.
4. ChNo: The specified channel number. Channel1 would be numbered 1 and channel 2 is numbered 2.
5. MAX and MIN are respectively the maximum value and the minimum value. When EN switches from OFF to ON, the
values of MAX and MIN would be initialized to a new measured value and start recording peak values. The values of
MAX and MIN would be updated continuously while detecting maximum and minimum values. If selecting integral to
be the format of output values of AD module, we suggest to use it with 16-bit ADPEAK instruction. If selecting floating
point to be the format of output values of AD module, you must use it with 32-bit DADPEAK instruction.
6. If En switches from ON to OFF, the function of recording peak values would be disabled. Meanwhile, the values of
MAX and MIN would be unchanged and would not be updated.

Explanation
2. You can refer to the IODD file of the IO-Link device to learn more about the device parameters. You can also use this 6_
instruction to write the parameters into the IO-Link device.
3. There is no limit on the number of times you execute the instruction but only one instruction (IOLINKR or IOLINKW)
can be executed at a time.
4. During communication, it takes at least 5 seconds for the IO-Link device to response. Do NOT stop or start another
instruction during this time. After the communication with IO-Link is done, it is suggested to use the flags DONE or
ERROR to stop or start the instruction.
5. Group: The group number of AS04SIL that is connected to the right side of PLC directly or connected to the remote
module that acts as PLC, e.g. the first connected module is module number 1, the second connected module is number
2. Up to 15 modules can be connected. If the connected module is not AS04SIL, the Error flag switches to ON.
2. Up to 32 modules can be connected and counted and each type of modules should be included in the count. If the
module is not AS04SIL, the Error flag switches to ON.
7. Port: The communication port number, ranging from 1 to 4. If the port number used is not the port for AS04SIL, the
Error flag switches to ON.
8. Index is the parameter index number that is intended to write into the IO-Link device.
6-541
9. SubIndex is the parameter sub-index number that is intended to write into the IO-Link device. The sub-index number
can be set from 0 to 255. If the value exceeds the setting range, the Error flag switches to ON.
10. DateType is the parameter data type of the IO-Link device. You need to set the correct datatype before executing this
instruction. Refer to API1426 IOLINKR instruction for more information.
11. DataWrite is the data written into the IO-Link device; unit: byte, arranged by high byte and low byte.
12. WriteLen is the data length of the data to be written into the IO-Link device; unit: byte.
13. Done is a communication complete flag. When this flag is ON, it indicates the parameters have written into the IO-
Link device completely.
14. Error is a communication error flag. When this flag is ON, it indicates an error occurs during the communication among
the PLC CPU, AS04SIL and the IO-Link device. Refer to the Error Codes from API1426 IOLINKR instruction for
troubleshooting.
18. The communication process among the PLC CPU, AS04SIL and IO-Link device:
A: The PLC CPU sends data to AS04SIL.

B: AS04SIL sends data to the IO-Link device.
_6
C: the IO-Lind Device is processing the request
and send data to AS04SIL.
D: The PLC CPU updates the status (DONE /
ERROR) and receives the data.
19. Sequences of the EN, Done, and Error flags: when an error occurs during communication (scenario 1) and when the
communication is compete (scenario 1).
6-542
Example 1: Write the parameter of Application Specific Tag into the first device of the first communication port.
1. Check HWCONFIG to learn the setting value in Application Specific Tag is “ABCDEFGH”.

3. We learnt that its index is 24, its Sub-index is 0, and the data type is StringT from its IODD file or the IO-Link device
manual. Set the setting values in Index to 24, in Sub-index to 0, in data type to 4 (StringT).
4. Use the instruction $MOV to write the string “IO-Link” into the data device, starting from D60.
5. Start sending “to write” request when M1 is ON. When M10 (DONE) is ON, it indicates the device has received the
response and has complete writing. WriteLen is 32, and the data string is saved in DataWrite (D60~D75). IO-Link
device writes the data into the data devices in accordance with the order of high byte and low byte.

6-543
6. Check HWCONFIG to learn the setting value in Application Specific Tag is updated to “IO-Link”.
Example 2: Write the parameter of gain trim green channel into the first device of the second communication
port.
1. Check HWCONFIG to learn the setting value in gain trim green channel is “-63”.

3. We learnt that its index is 72, its Sub-index is 0, and the data type is IntegerT from its IODD file or the IO-Link device
manual. Set the setting values in Index to 72, in Sub-index to 0, in data type to 2 (IntegerT).
4. Use the instruction $MOV to write 0xE2 (-30) into the data device, starting from D60.
5. Start sending “to write” request when M1 is ON. When M10 (DONE) is ON, it indicates the device has received the
response and has complete writing. WriteLen is 1, and the data is saved in DataWrite (D60 Low byte). IO-Link
device writes the data into the data devices in accordance with the order of high byte and low byte.

Explanation
1. This instruction switches the output device specified by D2 to ON after the amount of time in S. 6_
2. S: The time after which the output device is ON (Unit: Hour)
The operand S used in the 16-bit instruction must be between 1–32,767.
3. D1: The current time (Unit: Hour). The value in D1 must be between 0–32,767.
D1+1: The current time which is less than one hour (Unit: Second). The value in D1+1 should be between 0–3,599.
D1+2 is for system use only. The value in it cannot be altered when the instruction is executed; otherwise, an error
occurs.
When the current time is 32,767 hour 3,599 second, the timer stops counting. After the values in D1 and D1+1 are
cleared to 0, the timer starts to count again.
4. When the time for which the input contact has been ON reaches the setting time in S, the output device is ON.
Before that the output device is not ON. This function allows you to manage the running time of the machine and
maintenance.
5. After the output device is ON, the timer continues to count.

6. When using on-line editing, reset the conditional contact to initialize the instruction.
Example 1
When X0.0 is ON, the instruction timer starts to count. When the time for which X0.0 has been ON reaches 100 hours,
Y0.0 is ON. The current time is recorded in D0, and the current time which is less than one hour is recorded in D1. D2 is
for system use. The value in it cannot be altered; otherwise, an error occurs.
Additional remarks
1. When S is less than or equal to 0, the instruction is not executed, and the state of the output device is unchanged.
2. If the value in D1 is less than 0, the state of the output device is unchanged.
3. If D1+2 exceeds the device range, an operation error occurs, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the

Explanation
1. This instruction compares the value of the hour, the minute, and the second specified by S1–S3 with the value of
the hour, the minute, and the second in the devices starting from the device specified by S, and stores the
comparison result in D.
2. The hour of the current time is in the device specified by S, and the value of the hour between 0–23. The minute of
the current time is in the device specified by S+1, and the value of the minute must be between 0–59. The second
of the current time is in the device specified by S+2, and the value of the second must be between 0–59.
3. The operand D occupies three consecutive devices. The comparison result is stored in D, D+1, and D+2.
4. In general, use the TRD instruction (API 1600) to read the current time from the real-time clock first, and then use
the TCMP instruction to compare the time.
5. If the setting time in S1-S3 is larger than the current time in S, D is ON, D+1 is OFF, and D+2 is OFF.
6-593
6. If the setting time in S1-S3 is equal to the current time in S, D is OFF, D+1 is ON, and D+2 is OFF.
7. If the setting time in S1-S3 is less than the current time in S, D is OFF, D+1 is OFF, and D+2 is ON.
Example
1. When X0.0 is ON, the instruction compares the setting time 12 hour 20 minute 45 second with the current time in
D20–D22, and stores the comparison result in M10–M12. When X0.0 switches from ON to OFF, the instruction is
not executed, and the states of M10, M11, and M12 remain the same as they were before X0.0 switched to ON.
2. If you want to get the comparison result ≧, ≦, or ≠, you can connect M10–M12 in series or in parallel.

Explanation
1. This instruction compares the current time specified by S with the lower limit time specified by S1, and with the
upper limit time specified by S2, and stores the comparison result in D.
2. The hour of the lower limit time is in the device specified by S1, the minute of the lower limit time is in the device
specified by S1+1, and the second of the lower limit time is in the device specified by S1+2.
3. The hour of the upper limit time is in the device specified by S2, the minute of the upper limit time is in the device
specified by S2+1, and the second of the upper limit time is in the device specified by S2+2.
4. The hour of the current time is in the device specified by S, the minute of the current time is in the device specified
by S+1, and the second of the current time is in the device specified by S+2.
5. The time in the device specified by S1 must be less than the time in the device specified by S2. If the time in the
device specified by S1 is larger than the time in the device specified by S2, the instruction takes the time in the
device specified by S1 as the upper limit time during the execution of the instruction.
6. In general, use the TRD instruction (API 1600) to read the current time from the real-time clock first, and then use
6-596
the TZCP instruction to compare the time.
7. If the current time in the device specified by S is less than the lower limit time in the device specified by S1, and is
less than the upper limit time in the device specified by S2, D is ON. If the current time in the device specified by S
is larger than the lower limit time in the device specified by S1, and is larger than the upper limit time in the device
specified by S2, D+2 is ON; otherwise D+1 is ON.
Example
When X0.0 is ON, the TZCP instruction is executed. M10, M11, or M12 is ON. When X0.0 is OFF, the instruction is not
executed, the state of M10, the state of M11, and the state of M12 remain the same as before X0.0 switched to ON.

• Read the daylight saving time function (refer to example 1-3)
When the operand S is 2, the function of daylight saving time is being read. S1 and S2: setting for the month to start
daylight saving time; S3 and S4: setting for the month to end daylight saving time; S5: settings for the change due to
daylight saving time; unit: minute. When S is set to read the state of the daylight saving function and the output state
of D is ON, the PLC saves the setting values in the operands S1–S5. The device is set to D while S is set to read. If
the device is set to K or 16#, the values are not saved, the SM0 is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
Devices with firmware version after V1.04 (V1.04 included) adds 4 to the function codes in S, after the daylight saving
state is read. For example, after the daylight saving state is read, the function codes 0, 1, 3 become 4, 5 and 7.

Explanation
1. This instruction allows you to set the time to start working for the week. S1–S1+6 allows you to set the time on Sunday
/ Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday / Friday / Saturday respectively. This operand occupies 7 consecutive
devices. You can use the variables in an ARRAY to declare the operands.
2. S2–S2+6 S1–S1+6 allows you to set the minutes to start working on Sunday / Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday /
Thursday / Friday / Saturday respectively. This operand occupies 7 consecutive devices. You can use the variables
in an ARRAY to declare the operands.
3. S3–S3+6 allows you to set the hour to stop working on Sunday / Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday / Friday /
Saturday respectively. This operand occupies 7 consecutive devices. You can use the variables in an ARRAY to
declare the operands.
4. S4–S4+6 allows you to set the minutes to stop working on Sunday / Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday /
6-609
Friday / Saturday respectively. This operand occupies 7 consecutive devices. You can use the variables in an ARRAY
to declare the operands.
5. When the hour value in S1 is larger than the value set in S3, it means the time to stop working is the next day. For
example, when you set the time to start working at 18:00 on Monday and the time to stop working at 6:00, it means
the time to stop working is at 6:00 Tuesday.
Start working time Stop working time
Day Start Hour Start Minute Stop Hour Stop Minute
Sunday S1 24 S2 00 S3 24 S4 00
Monday S1+1 18 S2+1 00 S3+1 06 S4+1 00
6. The setting value for the hour is between 0–23. When the setting value is out of range, this function is not enabled.
The setting value for the minute is between 0–59. When the setting value is out of range, this function is enabled but
uses 0 as the setting value.
7. When it is required to set the work time to be more than 1 day, you can set the hour as 24, which means the system
does not check the start working time and the stop working time. For example, to set the start working time to 8 am
Monday and the stop working time to 8pm Tuesday, use S1+1=8, S3+1=24, S1+2 =24 and S3+2=20. See the formula
in the following table.
_6 Day Start Hour Start Minute Stop Hour Stop Minute
Sunday S1 24 S2 00 S3 24 S4 00
Monday S1+1 08 S2+1 00 S3+1 24 S4+1 00
Tuesday S1+2 24 S2+2 00 S3+2 20 S4+2 00
8. This instruction should work with the real-time clock in the PLC. Before operating, make sure the PLC battery is
securely installed and working correctly.
9. There is no limit on the number of times you can execute the instruction but the output control device D cannot be
used repeatedly. If you use the device D repeatedly, only the last output result from the WWON instruction is executed.
10. If more than 1 set of work hours are needed, use the WWON instruction repeatedly as required. Note that you cannot
use the output control device D repeatedly.

Explanation 6_
1. The ten external inputs starting from the input specified by S represents 0–9 in the decimal system. They are
connected to ten keys. You can enter a four-digit decimal value 0–9,999 (16-bit instruction) or an eight-digit
decimal value 0–99,999,999 (32-bit instruction) by pressing the keys in order. The instruction stores the decimal
value in D1, and stores the output signals in D2.
2. The operand S occupies ten bits.
3. The operand D2 occupies eleven bits. Please do not change the states of the bits during the execution of the
instruction.
4. When the conditional contact is not enabled, the eleven bits starting from the bit specified by D2 are OFF.
5. When using on-line editing, please reset the conditional contact to initialize the instruction.
6. You can use the 32-bit counter only when D1 uses 32-bit instructions.
6-615
Example
1. The ten external inputs starting from X0.0 are connected to ten keys that represent 0–9 in the decimal system.
When M0 is ON, the instruction stores the value that you enter as a binary value in D0, and stores the output
signals in M10–M19.

2. If the keys connected to X0.5, X0.3, X0.0, and X0.1 are pressed in the order shown in the timing chart, the
instruction stores the result 5,301 in D0. The maximum value that can be stored in D0 is 9,999. If the value
exceeds four digits, the first digit from the left overflows.
3. After the key connected to the X0.2 is pressed and before other keys are pressed, M12 is ON. The same applies to
the other keys.
6-616
4. When a key connected to the input within the range between X0.0 and X0.9 is pressed, the corresponding output
within the range between M10 and M19 is ON.
5. When one of the keys is pressed, M20 is ON.
6. When the conditional contact M0 is switched OFF, the value stored in D0 is unchanged; however, M10–M20 are
switched OFF.

Explanation
1. The four external inputs starting from the input specified by S are connected to the four external outputs starting
from the output specified by D1 to form a 16-key keypad. The instruction stores the value that you enter by
pressing the keys in D2, and stores the output signals in D3. If you press several keys simultaneously, the value
that is smaller is stored.
2. The value that you enter by pressing the keys is temporarily stored in D2. For the 16-bit HKY instruction, the
maximum value that can be stored in D2 is 9,999. If the value exceeds four digits, the first digit from the left
overflows. For the 32-bit DHKY instruction, the maximum value that can be stored in D2 is 9,999. If the value
exceeds eight digits, the first digit from the left overflows.
3. After the instruction completes, SM692 is ON. That is, SM692 is ON for a scan cycle after the execution of the
matrix scan is complete.
6-618
4. You can use the 32-bit counter only when D2 uses 32-bit instructions.
Example
1. The four external inputs X0.0–X0.3 are connected to the four external outputs Y0.0–Y0.3 to form a 16-key keypad.
When X1.0 is ON, the instruction stores the value that you enter as a binary value in D0, and stores the output
signals in M0–M7.
The function of SM691:
 If SM691 is ON, the 16-bit instruction takes 0–F as hexadecimal values.

Additional remarks
1. When this instruction is executed, a too long or a too short scan cycle time will cause the state of the switches to
be read incorrectly. Use the following tips to solve the issue.
 When the scan cycle is too short, the I/O may not be able to respond in time and cannot read the correct
states of the inputs. You can set a fixed scan time to solve this issue.
 When the scan cycle is too long, the switch may become slow to react. You can write this instruction to a
timer interrupt task to set a fixed time to execute this instruction.

Explanation
1. The four or eight external inputs starting from the input specified by S1 are connected to the four external outputs
starting from the output specified by D1 to form a four-digit DIP switch or two four-digit DIP switches. The
instruction stores the value from the DIP switch in D2. Whether there is one four-digit DIP switch or two four-digit
DIP switches depends on n.
2. If n is 1, the operand D2 occupies one register. If n is 2, the operand D2 occupies two registers.
3. S2 and S2+1, are for system use only, and occupy two devices. Please do not alter the values in these devices.
4. After the instruction completes, SM694 is ON for a scan cycle.
5. When the conditional contact is not enabled, the four external outputs starting from the output specified by D1 stay
OFF.

Example
1. X0.0–X0.3 are connected to Y0.0–Y0.3 to form the first DIP switch, and X0.4–X0.7 are connected to Y0.0–Y0.3 to
form the second DIP switch. When X1.0 is ON, the instruction converts the value that you enter with the first DIP
switch into the binary value, and stores the conversion result in D20. The instruction converts the value that you
enter with the second DIP switch into the binary value, and stores the conversion result in D21.
2. When X1.0 is ON, Y0.0–Y0.3 are ON cyclically. After the instruction completes, SM694 is ON for a scan cycle.

Explanation
1. The eight external outputs starting from the output specified by D are connected to a four-digit seven-segment
display; or the twelve external outputs starting from the output specified by D are connected to two four-digit seven-
segment displays. Every place is equipped with a driver that converts a binary-coded decimal value into seven-
segment data, and every driver is equipped with a latch that can be used to store state information.
2. The value in S1 is the value to show on first seven-segment display, and the value in S1+1 is the value to show on
second seven-segment display.
3. S2 is for system use only. Please do not alter the value in it.
4. The operand n must be between 0–7. Please refer to the Additional remark for more information.
5. Whether there is one four-digit seven-segment display or two four-digit seven-segment displays, and whether an
output is a positive logic output or a negative logic output depends on n.
6. If there is one four-digit seven-segment display, eight outputs are occupied. If there are two four-digit seven-
segment displays, twelve outputs are occupied.
6-626
7. When the instruction is executed, the outputs are ON cyclically. If the conditional contact switches from OFF to ON
during the execution of the instruction, the outputs are ON cyclically again.
8. After the execution of the instruction is complete, SM693 is ON for a scan cycle.
Example
1. When X1.0 is ON, the instruction is executed. Y0.0–Y0.4 form a circuit. The instruction converts the value in D10
into the binary-coded decimal value, and shows the conversion result on first seven-segment display. The
instruction converts the value in D11 into the binary-coded decimal value, and shows the conversion result on
second seven-segment display. If the value in D10 or D11 exceeds 9,999, an operation error occurs.
2. When X1.0 is ON, Y0.4–Y0.7 are ON cyclically. It takes twelve scan cycles for Y0.4–Y0.7 to be ON. After the
instruction completes, SM693 is ON for a scan cycle.
3. If there is one four-digit seven-segment display, n is between 0–3.
 Connect the pins 1, 2, 4, and 8 in parallel, then connect them to Y0.0–Y0.3 on the PLC, and connect the 6_
latches to Y0.4–Y0.7 on the PLC.
 When X1.0 is ON, the instruction is executed. Y0.4–Y0.7 are ON cyclically, and the value in D10 is shown on
seven-segment display.
4. If there are two four-digit seven-segment displays, n is between 4–7.
 Connect the pins 1, 2, 4, and 8 in parallel, then connect them to Y0.8–Y0.11 on the PLC, and connect the
latches to Y0.4–Y0.7 on the PLC.
 The value in D10 is shown on first seven-segment display, and the value in D11 is shown on second seven-
segment display. If the values in D10 and D11 are 1234 and 4321 respectively, 1234 is shown on second
seven-segment display.

Additional remarks
 Whether an output is a positive output or a negative output, and whether there is one four-digit seven-
segment display or two four-digit seven-segment displays depend on n.
 The outputs on the PLC should be NPN transistors whose collectors are open collectors. In addition, an
output has to connect a pull-up resistor to the DC power supply (less than 30 VDC). Therefore, when an
output is ON, a signal of low potential is output.

_6 Explanation
1. This instruction performs a longitudinal parity check on n bytes in the device specified by S. Please refer to the
Additional remark for this instruction (below) for more information about the LRC check code.
2. The operand n must be an even number, and must be between 1–1000. If n is not in the range, an operation error
occurs, the instruction is not executed, SM0 and SM1 are ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#200B.
3. The 16-bit conversion mode: When SM606 is OFF, the instruction divides the hexadecimal data in the device
specified by S into the high 8-bit data and the low 8-bit data. The instruction applies the LRC to every byte, and
stores the operation result in the high 8-bit and the low 8-bit in the device specified by D. The number of bytes
depends on n.
4. The 8-bit conversion mode: When SM606 is ON, the instruction divides the hexadecimal data in the device
specified by S into the high 8-bit data (invalid data) and the low 8-bit data. The instruction applies the LRC to every
byte, and stores the operation result in the low 8-bit in the two registers. The number of bytes depends on n. The
values of the high 8 bits in the two registers are 0.

Explanation
1. This instruction performs a cyclic redundancy check on n bytes starting with the device specified by S. Please refer 6_
to the Additional remark for this instruction (below) for more information about the CRC check code.
2. The operand n must be between 1–1000. If n is not in the range, an operation error occurs, the instruction is not
executed, SM0 and SM1 are ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#200B.

2. CRC check code: The check code starts from the address to the data. The operation rule is shown in the following
table.
Step 1: Suppose the data in the 16-bit register (the register where the CRC check code is stored) is 16#FFFF.
Step 2: The logical operator XOR takes the first 8-bit message and the low 8-bit data in the 16-bit register, and
performs the logical exclusive OR operation on each pair of corresponding bits. The operation result is
6_
stored in the 16-bit register.
Step 3: The values of the bits in the 16-bit registers are shifted by one bit to the right. The value of the highest
bit becomes 0.
Step 4: If the value of the right-most bit that is shifted to the right is 0, the data from step 3 is stored in the 16-bit
register. Otherwise, the logical operator XOR takes 16#A001 and the data in the 16-bit register, and
performs the logical exclusive OR operation on each pair of corresponding bits. The operation result is
stored in the 16-bit register.
Step 5: Repeat step 3 and step 4, and perform the operation on the 8-bit message.
Step 6: Repeat step 2–5, and then get the next 8-bit message. Perform the operations on all messages. The
final result in the 16-bit register is the CRC check code. Notice that the low 8-bit data in the 16-bit
register is interchanged with the high 8-bit data in the 16-bit register before the CRC check code is put
into the check code of the message.

The instruction supports only the function codes mentioned above, and cannot execute other function codes.
Please refer to the examples below.
3. S3 is the device address. If the address is invalid for the designated communication device, the communication
device responds with an error message. For example, the device address 16#8000 is invalid in the DVP-ES2.
4. S is the register involved in the reading/writing the data.

The data to be written into the external equipment is stored in the register in advance.
The data to be read from the external equipment is stored in the register.
5. N is the length of the data
For word-type communication function codes, the data length cannot exceed 100 words.
6_
For bit-type (BOOL) communication function codes, the data length is between 1–1600 bits.
6. The following table shows how the functions of S3, S, and n vary with the function code used.

7. There is no limitation on the number of times you can use this instruction; however only one instruction can be
executed on the same COM port at a time. You need to decide and use the sending flag for the COM to be used
before executing this instruction. Otherwise, the data from 2 different communication COMs may be mixed up.
8. If a communication timeout occurs, the timeout flags are ON. After you solve the problem, you must reset timeout
flags to OFF. When using this instruction, the timeout value cannot 0. Set the value between 100–32767ms; when
the value is set to 0, it is processed as 200 ms.
9. In Modbus ASCII mode, you need to set up only the data (non-ASCII mode) for transmission. The instruction converts
the non-ASCII mode to the ASCII mode, consisting of the head code (:), the converted ASCII code, checksum (LRC)
and tail code (CRLF). The instruction stores the data received in ASCII character in the internal register. The PLC
_6 automatically converts the data into the hexadecimal value, and if the communication data is correct, stores the
conversion result in S. and sets the completion flag SM to ON.
10. In Modbus RTU mode, you need to set up only the data for transmission. The instruction adds the checksum (CRC)
and the stores the data received in ASCII character in the internal register. The PLC automatically converts the data
into the hexadecimal value, and if the communication data is correct, stores the conversion result stored in S.
11. The instruction cannot be used in the ST programming language, interrupt tasks or function block which is called
only once.
Communication protocol setup example
1. The following examples use PLC communication port 1 and special registers to demonstrate how to setup a
communication protocol.
2. You can set up the PLC communication port with HWCONFIG in ISPSoft, or with the relative special registers, or
you can use the COMDF instruction (API 1813) to set up the communication. Please refer to the ISPSoft manual for
setting it up in HWCONFIG. For communication register setups (SM, SR), please refer to section 6.19.3 for more
details.
6-640
3. The communication setup for this example is RS485 ASCII, 9600, 8, E, 1 (SR209=16#0025).
4. Set the communication timeout to 3000ms (SR210=3000).
5. Set the communication mode to ASCII mode (SM210=OFF).
6. Enable the communication protocol (SM209=ON).
If you set up the communication port with the COMDF instruction (API 1813), you can ignore this step.
6_
If you set up the communication port in ISPSoft－＞HWCONFIG－＞COM Port, you can ignore this step.

Example 1
1. Function code 01 (16#01): the PLC reads the data from several bit devices that are not discrete input devices (16
pieces of data is read in this example). For function code 02, the operation is the same as for function code 01.
AS Series CPU module is connected to the DVP-ES2 Series PLC.
When SM96 and X0.0 are on, the AS Series CPU sends and receives the Y0–Y17 commands from the DVP-ES2.
When the address of Y0 is 16#0500, the states of Y0–Y17 in DVP-ES2 are listed in the following table.

S2 ：Source of the data to be sent
S3 ：Length of the data to be sent
D1 ：First device where communication data received is stored
D2 Condition for ending receiving data
Explanation
1. S1 is a communication port number: COM1 is number 1, COM 2 is number 2, Card 1 is number 11 and Card 2 is
number 12. If the data is out of the communication port range, the instruction does not execute any sending or
receiving.
2. If you use a specific character or characters to end receiving data, it is suggested that you apply the instruction to
ASCII data. If you do not apply the instruction to ASCII data, it is suggested that you use a timeout period to end
receiving data.
3. S2 is the source of the data to be sent.
S3 is the length of the data to be sent.
6-655
If S2 is D100 and S3 is 10, the instruction sends the values in the low bytes in D100–D109 through the
communication port specified by S1.
4. No strings are sent if the setting value in S3 is 0. The maximum number of characters that can be sent is 256
words.
5. D1 is the length of the data that is received.
D1+1–D1+n are the devices to store the data that is received
If D1 is D200, the value in D2 is 3, and the value in D2+1 is 16#0D0A, the instruction stores data received in the low
bytes in the devices starting from D201 (the high bytes is unchanged) The instruction continues to receive data
until it receives the consecutive stop characters 16#0D and 16#0A. The instruction writes the length of the data
received to D200 after receiving 16#0D and 16#0A, and sets a completion flag to ON after the receiving data
stops.
6. D2 is the mode for receiving data
D2+1 is the condition that ends receiving of data
D2 and D2+1 are described in the following table.

received. Take standard Modbus for example.
Sending the data: (PLC→external equipment)
6-659
Receiving the data: (External equipment→PLC)
16-bit mode: The command that is edited is stored in the initial transmission device, and the command to be sent
includes the head code and the tail code. When SM106/SM107 is OFF, the instruction divides the 16-bit data into
the high 8-bit data and the low 8-bit data.
Sending the data: (PLC→external equipment)
Receiving the data: (External equipment→PLC)

The following examples use COM1 (RS485).
Example 1
The mode in D2 is 0 (not receiving communication data) and you set the mode for sending and receiving data to 8-bit
mode (SM106=ON).
1. The length for the data to be sent: D20=4.
2. The contents for the data to be sent: D100=16#0031, D101=16#0032, D102=16#0033, D103=16#0034.
3. Set D10=16#0000 (sending data only, not receiving data).
4. Enable the contact X0.0.
5. The PLC sends 4 pieces of data.
6. Sending data: PLC→external equipment 31 32 33 34.
7. Since receiving data is not required, after the PLC sends out the data, the operation ends, and SM100=0.

8. To send more data, set the flag SM100 to OFF to start the operation again.
6-661
Example 2
The mode in D2 is 1 (setting the timeout value to 5–3000 ms) and you set the mode for sending and receiving data to 16-
bit mode (SM106=OFF).
2. The contents for the data to be sent: D100=16#3231, D101=16#3433.
3. Set D10=16#0001 (mode: 1), D11=300 (set the timeout value to 300 ms).
5. PLC sends 4 pieces of data.
6. Sending data: PLC→external equipment 31 32 33 34.
7. After the external equipment receives the data from the PLC, it sends 5 consecutive data to the PLC, each sent in
less than 20 ms. External equipment→PLC 35 36 37 38 39.

D203=16#0039.
9. SM100=ON: reception of data is complete.
NOTE: When the sending of data is complete, the receiving flag SM98 is ON, and then the PLC starts to receive data.
You set the timeout between each data reception in D11. When the interval time exceeds the set timeout and no
data is received, SM100 is ON.
6-662
Example 3
The mode in D2 is 2 (the data received ends with a specific character.) and you set the mode of sending and receiving
data to 8-bit mode (SM106=ON).
1. Set the length of the data to be sent: D20=0, meaning the PLC will not send data but only receives data.
2. Set D10=16#0002 (mode: 2), D11=16#000A (the ending character is 16#0A).
4. The PLC waits to receive data from the external equipment. D20=0 means that the PLC does not send data to the
external equipment.
5. The external equipment sends data to the PLC.
External equipment → PLC 31 32 33 34 35 0A.
6. D200=6 (number the data received), the content of data received: D201=16#0031, D202=16#0032,
D203=16#0033, D201=16#0034, D202=16#0035, D203=16#000A

6_
NOTE: When the sending of data is complete, the receiving flag SM98 is ON and then the PLC starts receiving data until
receiving the ending character (16#0A). When the reception of data is complete, SM100 is ON. If the
communication timeout occurs but the ending character (16#0A) is still not received, the communication timeout
flag SM104 is ON.
6-663
Example 4
The mode in D2 is 3 (the data received ends with two specific characters.) and you set the mode for sending and
receiving data to 16-bit mode (SM106=OFF).
This example uses a DVP-ES2 as the external equipment and writes H1234 to D100 in the DVP-ES2.

D209=16#000A.
NOTE: When sending of data is complete, the receiving flag SM98 is ON and then the PLC starts receiving data until it
receives the ending character (16#0D0A). When the reception of data is complete, SM100 is ON. If the
communication timeout occurs but the ending character (16#0D0A) is still not received, the communication
timeout flag SM104 is ON.
6-664
Example 5
The mode in D2 is 4 (the data received starts with a specific character and you set the timeout value to 5–255 ms.) and
you set the mode of sending and receiving data to 8-bit mode (SM106=ON).
3. Set D10=16#0004 (mode: 4), D11=16#3A0F (the starting character is 16#3A and set the time value to 16#0F,
meaning 15ms).
Sending data: PLC→external equipment 31 32 33 34
6. The external equipment receives data from the PLC and then sends 7 consecutive words to the PLC with an
interval of 1 ms between each sending.

D203=16#0036, D204=16#0037, D205=16#0038, D206=16#0039.
NOTE: When the sending of data is complete, the receiving flag SM98 is ON and then the PLC is ready to receive data.
When the PLC receives the starting character 16#3A, it starts receiving data. The interval timeout between
receiving each piece of data is set in D11. When the interval time exceeds the set timeout 16#0F (15 ms) and no
data is coming in, SM100 is ON.

Additional remarks
1. There is no limit on the number of times you can execute the COMRS communication instruction. However, each
communication port can only be enabled by one communication instruction, and the later communication
instructions that follow are not executed.
2. The instruction does not use checksum when you execute this instruction. If you need a checksum, use COMRS
and another available instruction.
3. If the value in D2 is 2, 3, 5, 6 or 9, it is suggested that you set a timeout period. After you set a timeout period, the
instruction tries to send the data again if a stop character is not received.
4. The instruction does not automatically clear the value in D1–D1+n whenever the instruction is executed or the PLC
begins to receive new communication data. You can know whether and how much data the PLC receives only after
a completion flag switches from OFF to ON . If the you want to clear the values in D1–D1+n, use the ZRST
5. If the value in S1 is out of range, the instruction is not executed.
6. If the number of devices starting from S2 is not equal to the value in S3, the instruction is executed, SM0 is ON, and
7. If the value in D2 is not between 0–9, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in SR0 is
16#200B.
8. If the value in D2 is 6, 8 or 9, and the number of devices starting from D1 is not equal to the value in D2+1, the
instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
9.
6_
If the quantity of data received is greater than the number of devices starting from D1, the data that cannot be stored
is ignored.
10. If a completion flag is ON, the PLC stops receiving data. If a communication port receives data when a completion
flag is ON, the data is not received.
11. If the setting value in S3 is not between 0–256, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in
SR0 is 16#200B.
12. When the mode of D2 is 6 or 8, the length of D2+1 not between 1–256, the instruction is not executed. SM0 is ON,
and the error code in SR0 is 16#200B.

S3 ： Parity bit
S4 ： Number of end bits
S5 ： Modbus format selection
D ： Communication port number
Explanation
1. This instruction provides a way to directly set the parameter values, instead of declaring variables.
2. S1 sets the baud rate with the units 100 bps. For example, a value 96 indicates 9600 bps.
3. S2 sets the number of data bits. The value 7 indicates 7 data bits and 8 indicates 8 data bits. If the value is not 7 or
8 in S2, the instruction uses the default value.
6-672
4. S3 sets the parity bit. The value 0 indicates None (no parity bit). The value 1 indicates Odd bit checking. The value 2
corresponds to Even bit checking. If the value in S3 is not 0, 1 or 2, the instruction uses the default value.
5. S4 sets the number of end bits. The value 1 (preset) indicates 1 bit. The value 2 indicates 2 bits. If the value in S4 is
not 1 or 2, the instruction uses the default value.
6. S5 sets the communication mode for Modbus communication. The value 0 indicates ASCII (default value). The value
of 1 indicates RTU. If the value in S5 is not 0 or 1, the instruction uses the default value.
7. D sets communication port number. The number for COM1 is 1, COM2 is 2, Card1 is 11 and Card2 is 12. If the
setting value is out of the valid range, the instruction does not set the communication port format.
8. You can also directly set the communication port in HWCONFIG in ISPSoft (COM Port settings) or with the special
registers. For more on in HWCONFIG, see the ISPSoft user manual. Refer to Section 6.19.3 for setting the
communication-related SR and SM registers.
9. The communication at the actual communication port changes immediately after you change the setting of the
instruction. If some communication is being carried out at the moment, it is forced to cancel. Additionally, the
corresponding setting value in SM/SR changes accordingly. For details on SM/SR, refer to Section 6.19.3.
10. This instruction does not change any setting for the actual communication port when the communication format
setting is the same as the previous setting.

Example
1. This example uses the PLC COM1 port. Other PLC communication ports are similar in the way you set up the
communication.
2. The contact for the start condition is X0.0.
3. Set the (RS485) communication format of PLC COM1 to 115200, 8, E and 1.

Description:
  Start or stop the execution of the instruction.
  Transmitting data begins. During this time, the communication timeout time is not measured.
  The reception flag is set. From the moment when the first character is received to the moment when the next
character is received, the period of time is measured. Whenever a character is received, the measured time is
cleared to 0. The instruction generates the communication timeout flag if the time measured is greater than the
communication timeout setting value.
  When receiving of data is complete, the instruction sets the completion flag. You must clear the flag before
receiving more data.
  The instruction is stopped for one cycle after the completion flag is set. Then the instruction can be started in
the next cycle.
5. There is no limit to the number of times the instruction can be executed. The instruction can use only one
communication port for the output and execution of one communication instruction each time. If receiving and
sending data is complete, you must disable the instruction to correctly release the communication control.
only once.
Example of setting the communication protocol 6_

1. Set the PLC COM1 (RS485) port with station address 2 and the communication format in HWCONFIG with these
values: ASCII, 115200, 7, N, 2.
2. Set the motor drive parameters using the panel on the Delta C2000 AC motor drive according to the following steps.
A. Set 09-00 to 1: the station address of the AC motor drive is set to 1.
B. Set 09-01 to 115.2: RS485 baud rate of the AC motor drive is 115200.
C. Set 09-04 to 1: RS485 communication format of the AC motor drive is 7, N, 2.
D. Set 09-20 to 1: the frequency instruction is input through RS485.
E. Set 09-21 to 2: the running instruction is input through RS485.
6-677
Example
Use the VFDRW instruction to control the velocity: make the VFD run forward at the frequency of 120Hz, then run in
reverse at the frequency of 180Hz, and then stop running.
_6
1. Connect AS COU to VFD.
Set D202=12000 initially. When M1 is ON, VFD starts to accelerate after receiving the clockwise running command,
and runs clockwise at 120Hz.
2. Set D204=18000 initially. When M2 is ON, VFD starts to decelerate until it stops after receiving the counterclockwise
running command, and runs counterclockwise at 180Hz.
6-678
3. When M3 is ON (at this time, the value in D206 is ignored), VFD decelerates to stop after receiving the stop command.
4. When M4 is ON, the instruction reads the values of H2100–H2104 of VFD and stores them in D220–224.

The state of the VFD:
Bit2=1 causes the VFD to execute the Jog command. Bit4–3=11B causes the VFD to run counterclockwise. The
frequency command is 18000, and causes the VFD to run at 180Hz. For the definitions of the parameter addresses
in the communication protocol, refer to the Delta AC Motor Drive user manual.
5. The reception completion flag SM100 is ON, and the values of M1–M5 are cleared to avoid interfering with the next
communication command.
After receiving the data that the VFD sends back, the instruction checks the format of the data sent back from VFD.
If the data format is correct, SM100 is ON; otherwise, SM102 is ON.

Description:
 Start or stop the execution of the instruction.
Transmitting data begins. During this period, the communication timeout time is not measured.
 The reception flag is set. From the moment when the first character is received to the moment when the next
character is received, the period of time is measured. Whenever a character is received, the measured is
cleared to 0. The instruction generates the communication timeout flag if the time measured is greater than the
6-682
communication timeout setting value.
  When receiving of data is complete, the instruction sets the completion flag. You must clear the flag before
receiving more data.
  The instruction is disabled for one cycle after the completion flag is set. Then the instruction can be started in
the next cycle.
6. There is no limit to the number of times the instruction can be executed. The instruction can use only one
communication port for the output and execution of one communication instruction each time. If receiving and
sending data is complete, you must disable the instruction to correctly release the communication control.

Example of setting the communication protocol:
1. Set the PLC COM1 (RS485) port in HWCONFIG with these values: ASCII, 115200, 8, E, 1
2. Set the servo parameters using the panel on the Delta ASDA-A2 servo according to the following steps.
A. Set P2-08 to 10 to restore the factory settings.
B. Cycle the power on the servo off and then back on.
C. Set P1-01 to 0001 (PR mode). 6_

D. Set P3-00 to 2: the station address of the servo is set to 2.
E. Set P3-01 to 0205: the RS485 baud rate of the servo is set to 115200.
F. Set P3-02 to 0004: the RS485 communication format of the servo is set to 8, E, 1.
G. Cycle the power to the servo again after completing these settings.

The command for the AS reads the data from several bit devices (which are not discrete input devices) is 1 (16#01).
The command for the AS reads the data from several bit devices (which are only discrete input devices) is 2 (16#02).
The command for the AS to read the data from several word devices (which are not input registers) is 3 (16#03).
The command for the AS to read the data from several word devices (which are only input registers) is 4 (16#04).
The command for the AS to write the state into a bit device is 5 (16#05).
The command for the AS to write the state into a word device is 6 (16#06).
The command for the AS to write the state into several bit devices is 15 (16#0F).
The command for the AS to write the data into several word devices is 16 (16#10).
The command for the AS to synchronously read from and to write the data into several word devices is 23 (16#17).
Only the function codes listed above are supported. Other function code setting values, such as 0, are invalid
6-689
(including communication address, length and the start register), and the instruction executes the data exchange
function based on the original communication parameter settings.
4. When you select 16#17 (for reading and writing synchronously) in S4 (the function code for reading), the operand
S8 (the function code for writing) is processed as invalid and 16#17 is automatically processed for writing data.
5. For PLC with FW V1.04.00 or previous versions: if you select16#05 or 16#06 in S8 (the function code for writing),
the operand S10 (the data length) is invalid and 16#05 or 16#06 indicates writing a piece of data.
6. The parameter values specified by the instruction are valid only while PLC is running. If you cycle the power on the
PLC, the data in the data exchange table set in HWCONFIG are taken as default values. If you want to modify the
values for parameters, use this instruction.
7. You can use the instruction to immediately set the parameters for the communication connection when the data
exchange function is not running. The new communication parameters are not used until the next cycle if the data
exchange function is running; however, the instruction changes the communication parameters for the connection
number.
For example, while the data exchange function is running with the parameters set for connection 3, you can specify
new the parameters for connection 3. The new parameters are not used until the next cycle when connection 3
starts.
8. The instruction only allows you to change the communication parameters. Refer to the following table for the flags
_6
to start and close the communication connection function if you use the PLC program to perform those functions.
When you set the automatic scan function through ISPSoft, the start/stop flag of the connection number
automatically updates the start/stop state once after the data exchange function finishes executing the scan.
The following table describes the SM flags.

SM1856 ~ SM1887 R Reading success for data exchange connections 1–32
SM1888 ~ SM1919 R Error flags for data exchange connections 1–32
The PLC sets the flag to ON when the reading success flag indicates that receiving data is complete and the data
checked are correct. If an error occurs in receiving data or a communication timeout occurs, the error flag is set to
ON refer to the error codes). The PLC does not reset any of the reading success or error flags to OFF in the data
exchange since the reading success flag and error flag of every connection number are not ON simultaneously.
9. The following table describes the SR (only-read registers) in the data exchange function.
SR No. Description
SR1335 Cycle of the actual connections 1–32 in the COM1 data exchange 6_
SR1336 Cyclic connection number in the current COM1 data exchange
SR1340–SR1371 Error codes of the connections 1–32 in the COM1 data exchange
SR1375 Cycle of the actual connections 1–32 in the COM2 data exchange
SR1376 Cyclic connection number in the current COM2 data exchange
SR1380–SR1411 Error codes for connections 1–32 in the COM2 data exchange
SR1435 Cycle of the actual connections 1–32 in the Function Card 1 data exchange
SR1436 Cyclic connection number in the current Function Card 1 data exchange
SR1440 ~ SR1471 Error codes of the connections 1–32 in the Function Card 1 data exchange
SR1475 Cycle of the actual connections 1–32 in the Function Card 2 data exchange
SR1476 Cyclic connection number in the current Function Card 2 data exchange
SR1480 ~ SR1511 Error codes of the connections 1–32 in the Function Card 2 data exchange
10. The data exchange function does not provide a writing success flag. It is suggested that you refer to the connection
number in the execution to judge whether the writing of data succeeds or not.
6-691
For example, when the executed connection number is 3 in SR1336, the successive communication actions are to
read the communication data first, and then to write the communication data after reading is completed. The
connection number is incremented to 4 after writing is completed.
11. If the reading data length value in S6 and the initial device in S7 are out of the range of the D or M device, the length
value in S6 is automatically set to be in the valid range. For example, if the length value in S6 is100 and the initial
device of S7 is M8182, the value in S6 is set to 10 automatically.
12. In the following cases, the instruction is not executed and the parameter settings in HWCONFIG are not changed
for the communication port, and SM0 is set to ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#200B.
 An input error occurs when the setting values in S1, S2, S4 and S8 are out of the specified range.
 When S4 or S8 function code selects the bit type for reading or writing data, the local device for storing data
S7 or S11 must select the M device. An input error occurs if the selection is not M.
 When the S4 or S8 function code selects the word type for reading or writing data, the local device for storing
data S7 or S11 must select the D device. An input error occurs if the selection is not D.

Explanation
1. S1 sets the serial number of a communication port. The number of COM1 is 1, COM2 is 2, Card1 is 11 and Card2 is
12. If the value exceeds the valid range, the instruction does not receive any communication data.
2. Refer to the explanation of the MODRW instruction (API 1808) for the meaning of the operands S2, S3, S4, S and n.
3. D sets the communication state flags when the instruction completes the communication, and the flags occupy 3
consecutive devices. You must reset the flags to OFF. The following table gives explanations of the flag states.
6-695
Operand Description
D Receiving data successful.
D +1 Error occurs in receiving data.
D +2 Reception timeout flag
NOTE: Only one flag is set to ON among the three state flags, and the corresponding special flags (SM) are also set
to ON every time the communication is completed. Refer to Section 6.19.3 for the use of the special flags.
4. The timing for sending the instruction begins when the instruction starts. You must disable the instruction for a scan
cycle after communication is completed. The next communication instruction can be sent as soon as the instruction
is restarted.
5. The communication action and control sequence of the instruction are similar to MODRW instruction (API 1808). The
only difference between the two instructions is that you can send the communication command without control over
the flag for sending data.
only once.
Example
_6 You can compare the MODRW program and MODRWE program, for example, by using the PLC COM1 and function code
03 to read eight pieces of data from D20 in the DVP-ES2. The same is true for other PLC communication ports. Refer to
the MODRW instruction (API 1808) and the following example for the use of other function codes.
1. The device address of D20 in the DVP-ES2 CPU (16#1020) and the content values in D20–D27 are shown in the
following table.
Device D20 D21 D22 D23 D24 D25 D26 D27
Value (16#) 1234 5678 1122 3344 5566 7788 99AA BBCC
2. The AS Series PLC reads the content values from D20–D27 in the DVP-ES2 CPU through communication.
6-696
Method 1: Using MODRW instruction
The data in D20-D27 of the DVP-ES2 are read when SM96 is ON and X0.0 is ON.
The following table explains the MODRW operands.

The communication response between the AS Series CPU and the DVP-ES2 depends on the mode.
ASCII mode: You do not need to convert the ASCII codes, and they are expressed in 16# values.
 AS sends the communication command: “01 03 10 20 00 08 C4 CR LF”
 AS receives the communication command: “01 03 10 12 34 56 78 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 AA BB CC AA

FE”
SM100 is ON if there is no error in the data.
After the receiving of the data sent from the DVP-ES2, the PLC confirms the data format sent back from the DVP-
ES2. If there are no errors in the format, SM100 is ON; otherwise, SM102 is ON. SM104 is ON if there is no
response.
Method 2: Using MODRWE instruction
The data in D20-D27 of the DVP-ES2 are read when X0.0 is ON.
_6
The following table explains the MODRWE operands.
S1 Communication port number 16#0001
S4 Reading the device address of D20 16#1020
S First register for storing the data read D10
n Reading the data length 8
D Flag for completion of reading and writing data M0
The communication response between the AS series CPU and the DVP-ES2 depends on the mode.
6-698
ASCII mode: You do not need to convert the ASCII codes, and they are expressed in 16# values.
 AS sends the communication command: “01 03 10 20 00 08 C4 CR LF”
 AS receives the communication command: “01 03 10 12 34 56 78 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 AA BB CC AA

CR LF”
RTU mode
 AS sends the communication command: “01 03 10 20 00 08 41 06”
 AS receives the communication command: “01 03 10 12 34 56 78 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 AA BB CC 90

FE”
M0 is ON when there is no error in the data.
After the receiving of the data sent from the DVP-ES2, the PLC confirms the data format sent from DVP-ES2. If
there is no error in the format, M0 is ON; otherwise, M1 is ON. M2 is ON if there is no response. The
corresponding special flags SM100, SM102 and SM104 are ON as well.
3. The following table lists the content values in D10–D17 of AS CPU.

Additional remarks
1. If you declare the operand in IPSSoft, the data type is ARRAY [3] of BOOL.
2. If D+2 exceeds the device range, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON and the error code in SR0is 16#2003.

4. S2 is the ID of the transmitted message. According to 2.0A or 2.0B protocol, the transmitted data automatically
occupies D buffer registers.
When 2.0A is selected, S2 is 11 bits of ID code with the following data transmission format.
S2 No. S2
Description Msg. ID

S2 No. S2 S2+1
Description Msg. ID（Lo-word） Msg. ID（Hi-word）
6-705
5. S3 is the length of the transmitted message. The setting value should be in the range of 0~8 with the unit of byte
(8bits). If the setting value (<0 or >8) exceeds the range, the instruction will run at the minimum value 0 or the
maximum 8. If the length of the transmitted message is 0, the communication mode will automatically change into
the slave mode to receive messages without sending out any data. The mode can be used to monitor the
communication packet.
6. S4 is the starting device where transmitted data are stored and only the following 8 bits of data are used.
For example, 4 messages are transmitted with D10 as the starting device. See the data transmission sequence as
below.
S4 No. D10 D11 D12 D13
Description Data1 Data2 Data3 Data4
7. If S1 is the master mode in which the master will wait to receive data after sending data or the slave mode, the
received data will be directly stored in the device specified by D1. D100 is specified by D1 Here See the stored
content format.

9. D2 and D3 are the receiving-completed flag and error flag respectively. The two flags will judge if the data receiving
is completed or an error occurs based on the current communication state when the instruction is scanned. If the
data receiving is completed or an error occurs, the flags will change to On. The two flags will be cleared and
change to Off automatically every time the instruction is enabled.
10. When the instruction is set to the master mode, using the receiving timeout setting in HWCONFIG is
recommended. So D3 will change to On and the error code 2 will be recorded in SR659 if the communication
packet has not been received fully within the specified period of time.
If the receiving timeout time is set to 0, it indicates that the communication timeout is not limited and the status can
be applied to the slave mode.
Note: The communication control right can not be released until the instruction is disabled by manual when the 6_
method in which there is no limit to the communication timeout is adopted.
11. There is no limit to the number of times of using the instruction. But only one CAN communication command is
allowed to be sent every time. If one command is being sent or received currently, the next CANRS instruction can
not be enabled.
12. Here is the CAN BUS format and every bit of content for Msg. ID is explained as below.
As 2.0A protocol is selected and the value of S2 is 16#0123, the Msg. ID content is shown in the following table.
Bit No. 15 ~ 11 10 ~ 8 7~4 3~0
S2 value (16bits) - 1 2 3
As 2.0B protocol is selected, the value of S2 is set to 16#1234 (Lo-word) and S2+1 is 16#0567 (Hi-word), the Msg.
ID content is shown in the following table.

Explanation
1. The DMVSH instruction is applicable to AS series PLC with the firmware of V1.06.00 and later.
2. Mode sets the method through which the PLC triggers DMV including DMV1000 and DMV2000 and the receiving
method. There are 2 modes: 0 and 1 for option. If the setting exceeds the range, PLC will automatically run in mode
0.
3. Please refer to following example explanation for the function of Start1, Start2, Ready, Shoot1, Shoot2, RdData
and Ok and the process of detection triggering.
4. ComNo sets a communication port number of the PLC. The number 1 represents COM1, number 2 represents
COM2, number 11 represents Card1, number 12 represents Card2 and number 4 represents Ethernet port. If the
setting is not one of the numbers mentioned above or represents the communication port that the PLC does not
support, the error flag Err will change to On and the error code 16#0001 will show up.
6-713
5. Id_Ip sets the communication station address (Mac ID) of the slave DMV or network IP. Address is the
communication address where DMV detection result is read. Length is the length of the read detection data.
6. See the explanation of the values of ErrCode in the table below.

the detection function.
 After DMV receives the trigger message, Ready is set from On to Off.
 Shoot1 is cleared to Off automatically by the PLC.
6-714
 After DMV detection is finished, Ready is set from Off to On. The PLC starts to judge if Ready is on after waiting for 1.5
times the input filtering time. The PLC receives the message that Ready changes from Off to On and sends a read
command via Modbus 0x03.
 The Ok flag is set to On after the PLC receives the communication data sent back from DMV. At the moment, the already
received data can be processed.
 The Start1 and Ok flags can be cleared to Off by manual.
 If the detection need be retriggered to execute, directly set Start1 to On to start the next-round DMV detection. (Return

Explanation
1. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.08.20 or later and ISPSoft V3.09.07 or later.
2. Make sure the data exchange table of the PLC CPU is already created before executing this instruction. If not, the
Error flag switches to ON and ErrCode is recorded as 1.
3. ComNo is the communication port for data exchange.
Communication Port COM1 COM2 Ethernet Card1 Card2
Number in decimal format 1 2 3 11 12
4. ListNo is the communication number of the data exchange table.
6-717
5. When the instruction is enabled, only the appointed communication number of the data exchange table will be
executed. When the communication is done and the slave device reponses with OK, the OK flag will be ON. The
corresponding SM of the communication number will be ON and the Error Code is recorded as 0.
6. Before executing this instruction, the system checks if the communication number to be executed is in cyclic
communication mode. If yes, this instruction will not be executed. The Error flag is ON. Error Code is recorded as 2.
0 No error or the transmission is complete.
1 The data exchange table or the communication number does NOT exist.
2 The connection of the data exchange table is started; do NOT start another connection again.
3 No response from the slaves.
4 Slave responds with a communication error.
5 The same communication port is in use.
The communication port does NOT exist or the communication card (AS-F232/422/485) is
6
NOT installed. .
7 The communication number of the data exchange table exceeds the setting rang (1~32).
8. The communication timeout is set in the data exchange table.
9. This instruction is suggested for applications where the slave device is better not to receive or be sent with
communication requests regularly. Since only one communication will be opened during the instruction execution,
you need to close the instruciton to start another communication if the same communicaitron port is being used.
_6 10. There is no limit on the number of times you execute the instruction but only one communication can be
established for each communication port. If you execute the insturcion again when the same comunicaiton port is
being used, the Error flag will be ON and the Error Code is recorded as 5.

Explanation
1. This instruction resets the watchdog timer to monitor the operation of the AS Series PLC system.
2. If the program scanning time in the PLC exceeds 200 milliseconds, the error LED indicator is ON, and the PLC
stops running.
3. The watchdog timer acts in the following cases.
 The system is behaving abnormally.
 Program execution takes too much time, and therefore the scan time is longer than the watchdog timer
setting value. There are two way you can improve the situation.
_6 (a) Use the WDT instruction to reset the watchdog timer.

Explanation
_6 1. This instruction outputs every pulse with a width specified by S1 and with a cycle specified by S2 from the device
specified by D.
2. The pulse width specified by S1 is t. t must be between 0–3276 milliseconds.
3. The pulse cycle specified by S2 is T. T must be between 1–32767 milliseconds, and S1 should be less than S2.
4. The S2+1 and S2+2 parameters are for system use. Please do not change them.
5. If S1 is less than 0, there is no pulse output. If S1 is larger than S2, the output device stays ON.
6. You can change S1 and S2 during the execution of this instruction.
7. If the conditional contact is not enabled, there is no pulse output.
Example
When the program is executed, the values in D0 and D2 are 1000 and 2000 respectively. When X0.0 is ON, the device
Y0.0 outputs the pulses illustrated below. When X0.0 is OFF, Y0.0 is OFF.

D ： Device to store the value in the index registers
Explanation
1. This instruction stores the values in E0–E9 in the devices specified by D. The valid range for D is between 0–99.
The instruction is not executed for values that exceed the range.
2. The instruction uses sixteen devices, and the last six devices are for system use. If you execute the instruction and
the number of times the data is stored is n (the value in D), the instruction stores data in E0–E9 in D+(16*n+1)–
_6
D+(16*n+16), and increments the value in D to n+1.
3. The storage for the device D is 1601 (16x100+1).
4. This instruction uses a pulse instruction to interact with the stack, pushing a value onto the stack. Therefore, you
must reset the contact before the next operation.
5. When you use this instruction with the EPOP instruction (API 1905), the value stored last in the device specified by
D is read first, following the LIFO (last in first out) principle.

Example
Suppose the value in D0 is 0.
When X0.0 is ON for the first time, the instruction transmits the data in E0–E9 to D1–D10 and increments the value in D0
to 1.
When X0.0 switches from OFF to ON for the second time, the instruction transmits the data in E0–E9 to D17–D26, and
increments the value in D0 to 2.
When X0.0 switches from OFF to ON for the nth time, the instruction transmits the data in E0–E9 to (n*16)+1–(n*16)+10.
Additional remarks
1. If the value in D is not between 0–99, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in SR0 is
16#2003.
2. If the range of devices is not sufficient for D+((the value in D)+1)*16-1), the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON,

Explanation
1. This instruction reads the values in the devices specified by D into E0–E9, and decrements the value in D by one.
The valid value for D is between 1–100. The instruction does not execute values that exceed the range.
2. The instruction involves sixteen devices, and the last six devices are for system use. If you execute the instruction
and the number of times the data is stored is n (the value in D), the instruction stores the data in E0–E9 in
_6 D+16*(n-1)+1–D+16*(n-1)+10, and decrements the value in D to n-1.
3. This instruction uses a pulse instruction to interact with the stack, taking the TOP VALUE from the stack and
assigning it to the specified variable; therefore, you must reset the contact before the next operation.
4. The value that the instruction stores last in the device specified by D is read first, following the LIFO (last in first

6_
Explanation
1. This instruction converts the signed decimal binary number in S into an ASCII code, and stores the conversion
result in D.
2. The instruction supports SM690 to control the ending character.
3. For 16-bit instructions, the value in S must be a binary number and between -32768 to 32767. The operand D
occupies four word devices. The instruction converts the data is converted as follows.
b15 b0 b15 b7
b8 b0

16#34 16#33 D+1
16#00 16#00 D+2
6-737
If SM690 is OFF, the instruction stores the ending character 16#0000 in D+2. If SM690 is ON, the value in D+2 is
unchanged without the ending character.
If the value in S is a positive value, the instruction stores only the value but not the sign character in D. If the value
in S is a negative value, the instruction stores the “-” sign character in D (16#2D). For example, if the value in S is -
12345 and SM690 is OFF, the conversion result is as follows.
b15 b0 b15 b7
b8 b0
-1234  16#31 16#2D（-） D+0
16#33 16#32 D+1
16#00 16#34 D+2
4. For 32-bit instructions, the value in S must be a binary number between -2147483648 to 2147483647. The
operand D occupies six word devices. The data is converted as follows.
b31 b0 b15 b7
b8 b0
12345678  16#32 16#31 D+0

16#38 16#37 D+3
16#00 16#00 D+4

_6
In addition, if the value in S is a positive value, the instruction stores only the value but not the sign character in D.
If the value in S is a negative value, the instruction stores the “-“ sign character in D (16#2D). For example, if the
value in S is -12345678, and SM690 is OFF, the conversion result is as follows.

6. If the first digit of the string in the device S is blank (16#20) + sign (16#2B), the value in S is processed as 0. For
6_
the second digit, if the number is not 0–9, the instruction treats it as the end of a string and no error message will
be shown. For example if the word order is 16#2016#3116#3216#2B, the conversion result is 12.
7. For 16-bit instructions, the string range in the device S is 1–6 (positive or negative signs included) and for 32-bit
instruction the range is 1–11 (positive negative signs included).

Example 3
Suppose the string value in S is 12. When the instruction executes, the value is D0=12.
Additional remarks
1. If the value of the first word in S is an ending character (16#00), the value is processed as 0 (16#30).
2. If the value of the first digit in S is 16#20 (blank) or 16#2B (+) or 16#2D (-) and the second digit is 16#00, the value
in S is processed as 0 (16#30).
3. Even if the first digit of binary-coded decimal value in S is 0, it is converted into the ASCII code 0 (16#30).
4. The value of the first digit in S only supports ASCII codes, 16#30–16#39 (0–9), 16#200 (blank), 16#2D (negative
sign), 16#2B (positive sign), 16#00 (ending character). If the value of the first digit in S is not ASCII code, the
5. Except the first digit, if the value of other digits in S are not ASCII codes, 16#30–16#39 or 16#00, the value in S is

processed as 16#00.
6. If the value in S exceeds the device range, SM0 is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003. The instruction is
not executed.

Additional remarks
1. If the length of the string in S exceeds 25 bytes and does not end with 16#00, SM0 is ON, and the error code in
SR0 is 16#2003.
2. There are some rules for the value in S. if the value in S does not follow the rules, the instruction is not executed,
SM0 is ON and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
The first ASCII code: signs16#2B(+), 16#2D(-), blank16#20, and numbers 16#30(0)–16#39(9) are allowed.
If the first ASCII code is a sign or a blank, the second ASCII code must be a number.
The second ASCII code can be in either decimal or exponential format.
 Decimal format:
Integ er OR In tege r
. D ecimal
The decimal point “,” (16#2E), can only occur once and there must be numbers before and after the decimal point.
 Exponential format:
Inte ger Exp one nt OR In tege r

. De ci ma l Exp one nt
The decimal point “,” (16#2E), can only occur once and there must be numbers before and after the decimal point.
There must be a number before the exponent. 6_

Integers: only numbers “0” (16#30)–“9” (16#39) are allowed.
Decimals: only numbers “0” (16#30)–“9” (16#39) are allowed.
Exponents: The format for a four digit ASCII code is as below.

There must be an “E” (16#45) or ”e” (16#65) and it can only occur once.
There must be a sign “+”(16#2B) or “-” (16#2D) and it can only occur once.
There must be two digits; numbers “0” (16#30)–“9”(16#39).
6-769
3. If the string in S is out of range, the instruction is not executed, SM is ON, and the error code in SR0 is 16#2003.
 If the first character in the string is a number ”0”–”9” (16#30–16#39), the valid range for a floating-point string
is 1–24. The minimum length for the string is one.
 If the first character in the string is a blank (16#20) or a sign (“+”(16#2B) or “-” (16#2D)), the valid range for a
floating-point string is 2–24. The minimum length for the string is two (“+1”).

5. If the value in S3 is equal to 0, the instruction is not executed.
Example
When M0 is ON, the data in D0–D7 is “1234ABAB1234AB”, and the data in D10–D11 is “CDEF”. When the $RPLC
_6 instruction executes, the instruction replaces the characters in D0–D7 starting from the character indicated by the value
in D51 with the characters in D10–D11. The number of characters to replace is indicated by the value in D50, and the
instruction stores the result in D20–D27.

S3 ： Designated ending character of a splitter

D1 ： Device in which the string after a splitter is stored
D2 ： Device in which the quantity of split strings is stored
Explanation
1. This instruction is only available for firmware version 1.04 or later.
2. S1 is the string source. For characters in a string, only the characters before an ending character or the value in S3
will be used as a valid string.
3. S2 is the splitter that separates strings. S3 is a designated ending character of a splitter. Only values in the lower 8-
byte are valid for S2 and S3. However, if you input a value other than the value in the lower 8-byte, PLC does not
send any error message. When S2 and S3 use D devices to store values, only use lower 8-byte for values in ASCII
format. Values in S2 and S3 can be a constant number, an ASCII or a string.
4. S4 is the storing length for a string after a splitter; unit: WORD. The ending characters, such as 16#00 and 16#0000
6-793
should be included in the length. The maximum WORDs a string can contain is S4 and a WORD equals to 2 bytes.
An ending character 16#00 takes a byte. For example, if S4 is 2, the maximum WORDs a string can contain is 2
WORDs and 2 WORDs equals to 4 bytes. And that means a string can contain 3 characters and 1 ending character
(16#00). The setting range for S4 is 1-100. (If the input value is out of the range, the value will be seen as the
minimum or the maximum during operation and PLC does not send any error message.)
5. D2 is the sum of all the split strings.
6. The result of D1~ D1+ S4 *D2 –1 is the D devices that are occupied.
For example, if D2 is 3, that means the 1st string will be stored from D1+0 and the 2nd string will be stored in D1+ S4
and the 3rd string will be stored in D1+ S4 x2.
7. The instruction looks for a string for a length defined in S4 (WORD) till there is an ending character or a splitter. Add
1 to the value in D2. Whenever one string is found,
8. Up to 256 characters can be stored in S1 and up to 20 sets of strings can be stored in D2. When any of the limitation
is reached even when there is no ending character, the splitting stops.
Example
Use “,” as a splitter to split a string “abcd,1234,5.67,8910;ef” and use “;” as an ending character that stored in D0-D11. And
_6
store the results in the register starting from D100 in a unit of 10 WORDs.
Note: the string to be split does not include the characters “”.

D1 ： Device in which the merged string is stored
D2 ： Device in which the quantity of merged strings is stored
Explanation
1. This instruction is only available for firmware version 1.04 or later.
2. S1 and S2 are the string source 1 and 2 respectively. S3 is the splitter that separates strings. Only values in the lower
8-byte are valid for S3. S1 merges S2 directly, when S3 is 0 (16#00). S1 adds the splitter and then merges S2, when
S3 is not 0.
3. D1 is where to store a merged string. The merging order is string 1 + splitter + string 2 + ending character 0 (16#00).
You can self-define an ending character. This self-defined ending character will be added before the official one, 0
(16#00).
4. If the values in S1, S2, S3 are all 0, D1 is 16#0000.
5. D2 is the sum of all the merged strings (ending character 16#00 excluded). The accumulated length for the string is
the length of string 1 or the length of string 1 + splitter + the length of string 2.
6-797
6. If the string sources for S1 and S2 are both 0 or when strings are merged, the length for the merged string is up to
255 words (ending character 16#00 excluded). For example, there are 250 words in String 1 and 100 words in
String 2. After they are merged, the length for the merged string is 250 words from String 1 + splitter *1 + first 4
words from String 2.
Example
Use “,” as a splitter to split a string and use “;” as an ending character and then merge 3 strings “abcd”, ”1234” and ”5.67”.
And store the results “abcd,1234,5.67;” D100=15, in the register starting from D0-D7.
_6 Explanation
1. Starting contact is M0
2. The 1st program: merge the 1st string “abcd” and 2nd string “1234” together and put a splitter “,” in between and then
store the result in the registers starting from D0.
The merged result: D0~D4= “abcd,1234”; the quantity of merged strings: D100=9
Device D0 D1 D2 D3 D4
HEX 6261 6463 312C 3332 0034
String “ba” “dc” “1,” “32” Upper 8-byte: 16#00 ; lower 8-byte: 4
3. The 2nd program: merge the 1st string D0=“abcd,1234” and 2nd string ”5.67” together and put a splitter “,” in between
and then store the result in the registers starting from D0.
The merged result: D0~D7= “abcd,1234,5.67”; the quantity of merged strings: D100=14
Device D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7
HEX 6261 6463 312C 3332 2C34 2E35 3736 0000
String “ba” “dc” “1,” “32” “,4” “.5” “76” 16#0000
6-798
4. The 3rd program: merge the 1st string D0=“abcd,1234,5.67” and 2nd string ”,” together and put a splitter “0” in between
(merge the string 1 and 2 directly) and then store the result in the registers starting from D0.
The merged result: D0~D7= “abcd,1234,5.67;”; the quantity of merged strings: D100=15.
Device D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7
HEX 6261 6463 312C 3332 2C34 2E35 3736 003B
Upper 8-byte: 16#00 ;

lower 8-byte: “;”
Additional remarks
3. If D1 + (D2+1)/2 – 1 exceeds the device range, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in
SR0 is 16#2003.
4. Ending character 16#00 or 16#0000 will be added behind the merged string. See the examples above.

S1 ： Socket mode
S2 ： Socket number
S3 ： Communication mode
_6 Explanation
1. This instruction opens a socket. Set S1 to 1 to open a TCP socket, and set S1 to 0 to open a UDP socket.
2. S2 is the socket number. It should correspond to the Ethernet socket number set in the advanced settings; up to 4
can be set.
3. The AS Series PLC functions as a client and sends a TCP connection (S1 = 1) request to the server if S3 is 1 or 3
(available for V1.06.30 or later), and the AS Series PLC functions as a sever and waits for a TCP connection (S1 =
1) request from the client if S3 is 0 or 2 (available for V1.06.30 or later).
4. To start a UDP connection (S1 = 0), set S3 to 0~3.
5. The operand S1 must be either 0 or 1 (default: 0); the operand S2 must be between 1–4 (default: 1); the operand S3
must be either 0 or 1 (default: 0). If exceeding the range, error code H’2003 shows on the PLC.
6. Before using the instruction, set the following setting in HWCONFIG in ISPSoft.
 PLC Parameter Setting → Ethernet-Basic → Setting IP address and netmask address
 PLC Parameter Setting → Ethernet-Advanced → Socket → Enable Socket Function
6-802
 PLC Parameter Setting → Ethernet-Advanced → Socket → TCP/UDP Socket Connection and Setting
sockets to be used
7. Refer to the SCONF instructions (API 2209) for more on the TCP and UDP Socket parameters.
8. If you need to send several data separately, you can use this new functionality: S3 = 2 or 3 (available for V1.06.30
or later). The first device in the receiving destination is stored with the length of the data to be received, and the data
to be received is stored from the second device and on. If you need to receive another data, you can clear the value
in the first device and start another data transmission.
9. When the TCP Socket (S1 = 1) is opened, use the following settings for S3, the Socket IP and communication ports.

Note: New modes 2 and 3 are available for V1.06.30 or later. New modes use the first device in the receiving destination
to store the length of the data to be received. You can use the value here to determine if the receiving is complete. For
modes 0 and 1, no length of data will be recorded.
6-803
10. If data is sent through a TCP socket, and no error occurs after the instruction is executed, the socket starts to
establish the connection with the remote device and the flag for starting connection is ON. If the connection is
made successfully, the flag for successful connection is ON, and the flag for starting connection is OFF. If an error
occurs, the error flag is ON.

4. First, set the parameters related to TCP Socket1 in HWCONFIG in ISPSoft or in the SCONF instruction.
6-805
5. Establishing a connection (Network 1); When M0 is ON, the system checks whether the socket is closed (SM1274
= ON), NOT connected (SM1270 = OFF), or NOT being connected (SM1273 = OFF). If the socket is not closed,
has not been connected, and is not being connected, the system performs the connection procedure. Once the
socket is connected (SM1270 = ON), M0 is switched to OFF.
6. Sending data (Network 3): When M1 is ON, the system checks whether the socket has been connected (SM1270
= ON), and no data is being sent yet (SM1275 = OFF). If the socket has been connected and no data is being sent,
the system starts to send the data. If the socket has not been connected, the system does not execute the
instruction. After the data has been sent (SM1272 = ON), M1 is switched to OFF.
7. Receiving data (Network 4): When M2 is ON, the system checks whether the socket has been connected and the
flag (SM1271) for data received is ON. If the socket has been connected and the flag for data received is ON, then
the data has already been received. But that does NOT necessary mean it has reached its maximum length of
receiving. After the data has been received (SM1271 = ON), M2 and SM1271 are switched to OFF.
8. Closing a connection (Network 5): When M3 is ON, the system checks whether the socket has been connected. If
the socket has been connected (SM1270 = ON), and the connection is not yet closed (SM1274 = OFF), the system
is going to close the connection. If the socket has not been connected, the system does not execute the
instruction. After the connection is closed (SM1274 = ON), M3 is switched to OFF.

a) ISPSoft → HWCONFIG (Ethernet-Advanced → Socket → 1st UDP Socket Connection)
b) SCONF instruction
c) Refer to point 3 in Example 1 for setting up the connection.
2. Establishing a connection (Network 1); When M0 is ON, the system checks if the socket is closed (SM1334 = OFF)
and then the system performs the connection procedure. Once the socket is connected (SM1334 = ON), M0 is
switched to OFF.
3. Sending data (Network 3): When M1 is ON, the system checks if the socket has been connected (SM1334 = ON),
and then the system starts to send the data. After the data has been sent, M1 is switched to OFF.
4. Receiving data (Network 4): When M2 is ON, the system checks if the socket has been connected and the flag
(SM1335) for data received is ON. If so, the data has already been received. But that does NOT necessary mean it
has reached its maximum length of receiving. After the data has been received (SM1335 = ON), M2 and SM1335
are switched to OFF.
5. Closing a connection (Network 5): When M3 is ON, the system checks if the socket to be closed has been
connected (SM1334 = ON), and if the connection is not yet closed (SM1337 = OFF). If so, the system is going to
6_6
close the connection. If the socket has not been connected, the system does not execute the instruction. After the
connection is closed, M3 is switched to OFF.

3. When PLC CPU is from STOP to RUN, execute SCONF instruction. Refer to API 2209 SCONF for setting up the
socket.
4. Establishing a connection (Network 3); When M0 is ON, the system checks if the socket is closed (SM1274 = ON),
NOT connected (SM1270 = OFF), or NOT being connected (SM1273 = OFF). If the socket is not closed, has not
been connected, and is not being connected, the system performs the connection procedure. Once the socket is
connected (SM1270 = ON), M0 is switched to OFF.
6-808
5. The connection to remote Client (IP = 192.168.1.106) is connected and sending 2K bytes of data.
6. Open the Monitor Table and start monitoring the starting device where the data length of the received data is
stored.
If 2K bytes of data is received, you can see the value in D15000 is 2000. If you need to start another data
transmission, you can set the value in D15000 to 0 to start another data length count.
7. Closing a connection (Network 5): When M3 is ON, the system checks if the socket has been connected. If the
socket has been connected (SM1270 = ON), the system is going to close the connection. If the socket has not
been connected, the system does not execute the instruction. After the connection is closed, M3 is switched to
OFF.

2. In general, use the MCONFP pulse instruction.
3. The following points explain the Modbus communication function codes in S4 and S8.
When the AS Series PLC reads the data from multiple bit devices (not discrete input devices), the function code
sent is 1 (16#01).
When AS Series PLC reads the data from multiple bit devices (only discrete input devices), the function code sent
is 2 (16#02).
When the AS Series PLC reads the data from multiple word devices (not input registers), the function code sent is
3 (16#03).
6-835
When the AS Series PLC reads the data from multiple word devices (only input registers), the function code sent is
4 (16#04).
When the AS Series PLC writes the status to one bit device, the function code sent is 5 (16#05).
When the AS Series PLC writes the data to one word device, the function code sent is 6 (16#06).
When the AS Series PLC writes the status to multiple bit devices, the function code sent is 15 (16#0F).
When the AS Series PLC writes the data to multiple word devices, the function code sent is 16 (16#10).
When the AS Series PLC writes the data to multiple word devices, the function code sent is 23 (16#17).
At present, the AS Series PLC only supports the function codes listed above.
4. The parameters in the instruction are valid only while PLC is running. When PLC is powered back on after being
powered off, it takes the settings from the data exchange table by default. If you need to change some parameters
during data exchange, this instruction modifies those parameters.
5. If the specified socket is already communicating, the new parameters become effective after the current
communication is complete.
6. When any parameter is not within the valid range, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON, and the error code in
SR0 is 16#200B.
7. The AS Series PLC does not support the Modbus TCP communication instruction or anything similar to the
_6
instruction ETHRW DVP series PLC. If you use the PLC program for Ethernet Modbus TCP communication
control, enable “Program control” mode in the data exchange table first and use the SM numbers from the following
table.
SM Number Attribute Explanation of Ethernet Data Exchange Parameters
SM1167 R/W Flag to enable data exchange
SM1168–SM1199 R/W Flag to enable data exchange connections 1–32
SM1200–SM1231 R Success flag for data exchange connections 1–32
SM1232–SM1263 R Error flag for data exchange connections 1–32
When data is received successfully, the success flag is ON. When there is an error receiving data, the error flag is
ON. The success flag and the error flag of any one connection socket are never switched to ON at the same time.
6-836
8. The following table explains the (read-only) SR numbers used in data exchange.
SR Number Explanation
SR1120–SR1151 Indicates the actual communication times for connections 1–32.
SR1152–SR1183 Indicate the communication error codes for connections 1–32.
The following table defines the error codes in SR1152–SR1183.

executes, it disables cyclic task (1), and Y0.0 is OFF.
You create cyclic tasks in ISPSoft and you define their default enabled/disabled state in ISPSoft. Cyclic task (0) and
cyclic task (1) are enabled when the PLC runs, and cyclic task (1) is disabled when the TKOFF instruction in cyclic task
(0) executes. Cyclic task (1) is disabled by the execution of the TKOFF instruction in cyclic task (0).

Explanation
1. This instruction runs the SFC (Sequential Function Chart) program specified by S1 according to the function code
in S2.
2. The instruction runs the SFC POU (Program Organization Unit) specified by S1 only when the PLC is scanning the
SFC POU.
3. The operands are described as follows.
 S1 defines the name of the SFC POU.
 When the designated SFC POU of S1 executes, the instruction clears the parameters (such as
SFC/STEP/ACTION/TRANSITION) for the SFC program when S2=0 or 1, and the SFC execution starts
according to the value specified in S2.
 IF S2=0, the system executes the SFC POU from the initial step.
 IF S2=1, the system executes the SFC POU from the designated step in S3.
6-870
 If S2=2, the instruction does NOT clear the status and the parameters (such as
SFC/STEP/ACTION/TRANSITION) for the SFC and the system starts executing from where it paused.
 S3 designates where to start (which step) in the SFC program in S1.
4. The range of S2 is between 0–2. If it is out of range, it is evaluated as 0.
5. When the state of the SFC POU is RUN, executing this instruction is invalid.
Example
Set up one LD (ladder) POU and specify its POU name as “Main”, and then set up two SFC POUs with the names of
“TestSFC1” and “TestSFC2”.
1. When the PLC executes the Main program (RUN), TestSFC1 and TestSFC2 execute the SFCSTP instruction (API
2502), and the two SFC POUs stop executing.
2. When M0 switches from OFF to ON, TestSFC1/ TestSFC2 POU execute the SFCRUN* instruction. See below for
the contents of the TestSFC1 and TestSFC2 for execution details. When S2=0, the SFC status and parameters are
cleared and begin to execute from STEP 1. When S2=1, the SFC status and parameters are cleared and begin to
execute from the designated STEP in S3.
3. When M1 switches from OFF to ON, TestSFC1 POU pauses. When S2=1, all the SFC executing actions and outputs
are cleared, and the system runs the final scan. 6_
4. When M2 switches from OFF to ON, TestSFC1 POU executes. When S2=1, the SFT status and parameters are
cleared, and the system begins to execute from STEP 2.
5. When M3 switches from OFF to ON, TestSFC2 POU pauses. When S2=0, all the SFC executing actions and outputs
are kept, and the system does not run the final scan.
6. When M4 switches from OFF to ON, TestSFC1 POU executes. When S2=2, the SFC status and parameters are
and the SFC begins to execute from where it paused.
*SFCRUN activates the SPC POU at the next scan.

S1 : Pulse output frequency
S2 : Number of pulses to output
D : Pulse output device

6_
Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the pulse output (S1, S2) for the device specified in D with no ramp up or ramp down when
the frequency changes. S1 specifies the pulse output frequency range: for line driver output models, the range is
between 0–4MHz; for open collector output models, the range is between 0 Hz–200 kHz. The unit of the output
frequency is 1 Hz. The error rate for 200 kHz is about 0.02% and for 100 kHz it is about 0.01%. The error rate
decreases with decreasing frequency. For example, if the output frequency setting is 199990 Hz, the actual output is
199960 Hz. If the output frequency setting is 99999 Hz, the actual output is 99990 Hz. If the output frequency is out
of the valid range, the PLC automatically processes it as the maximum or minimum pulse output frequency.
2. You can change the output frequency specified by S1 during the execution of the instruction without using the ramp
up/down process. The time to change the frequency is when the PLC is scanning the instruction and the instruction
has completed output of a full pulse.
3. S2 specified the number of output pulses. The range is between 0–2,147,483,647. When you set the number of output
pulses to 0, then the number of pulses is not restricted and pulses are output constantly until the instruction is disabled.
When the number of output pulses is set to less than 0, no pulses are output.
4. After the instruction starts to output pulses, the number of output pulses specified by S2 cannot be changed.
6-879
5. D only allows Y0.0–Y0.11 as the output devices. After the instruction is executed, its output function becomes the
high-speed output, and the basic instruction output point control is invalid. It is suggested that you do not use the
general output function after using the high-speed output function in the program.
6. The ratio of Duty-OFF Time and Duty-ON Time for the pulse output is 1:1.
7. There is no limit to how many times you can use the instruction a program. But only one output instruction that uses
the same output point can be executed in the same scan cycle. When several high-speed pulse output instructions
start the same output point in the program, the PLC first performs the output based on the instruction that is executed
first.
8. After every high-speed output instruction for every output point is executed, other instruction occupying the same
output point can not start until the high-speed output instruction in execution is disabled.
9. When the high-speed output instruction is executed in an interrupt program or is not in the main process, it is
suggested that you use the instruction with the auto-reset function when output is completed and the PLC updates
the output state in the END instruction.
10. After the stop flag is set, the PLC stops the output and clears the busy flag only after executing the start instruction a
second time and outputting a full pulse. The PLC continues to output pulses when the stop flag is reset and the
previously stopped pulse output is not finished. You set and reset the stop flag is set in the program.
11. The high-speed output points and corresponding SM/SR are listed in the following table.

#3: It is suggested that you clear the completion flag. If the completion flag is not cleared, it is cleared automatically
when the high-speed output instruction is executed the next time.
#4: You set the output completion auto-reset flag. The PLC clears the flag automatically after the output is
completed.
Example 1
1. When X0.0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 200 pulses at 1kHz. SM461 is ON when the pulse output is completed and then 6_
Y0.12 is ON.
2. When X0.0 is OFF, Y0.0 stops the output. It restarts the pulse output when X0.0 switches to ON again.

Explanation
1. Y0.0 outputs 1000 pulses when X0.0 receives one external interrupt signal. Y0.2 outputs 1000 pulses when
X0.1 receives one external interrupt signal.
2. When the external interrupt input X triggers the pulse output from Y, the interval time between the Y pulse
output completion and the next external interrupt input X trigger must be one or more PLC scan cycles.
6-882
Example 3 (ST program)
Explanation
1. When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 1000 pulses at 1kHz. When M1 is ON, it indicates Y0.0 is used for high-speed pulse
output.
2. When the pulse output is completed, SM461 is ON. And if M1 is also ON, it triggers SM470 (output completion
auto-reset for Y0.0) to be ON and Y0.0 is free and ready to be used again.
3. When M0 switches from OFF to ON, the pulse output is restarted.
4. When there are more than two high-speed output instructions in a program, do not use the variable name, M1,
repeatedly.
5. It is suggested not to use ST language in a program if there is any chance the outputting needed to be stopped.

_6
D ： Pulse output device
Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the pulse output (S1, S2) for the device specified in D with ramp up or ramp down in the
frequency change. S1 specifies the pulse output frequency as 4 MHz for line driver output models and the pulse
output frequency between 0 Hz–200 kHz for the open collector output models. The unit of the output frequency is 1
Hz. The tolerable error rate for 200 kHz is about 0.02% and for 100 kHz it is about 0.01%. The error rate decreases
with decreasing frequency. For example, if the output frequency setting is 199990 Hz, the actual output is 199960
Hz. If the output frequency setting is 99999 Hz, the actual output is 99990 Hz. If the output frequency is out of the
valid range, the PLC automatically processes it as the maximum or minimum pulse output frequency.
2. After the instruction is executed, you can change the target output frequency specified by S1 and the PLC performs
the ramp up or ramp down process according to the ramp up or ramp down time setting S3. The time to change the
frequency is when the PLC is scanning the instruction and the instruction has completed output of a full pulse.
3. S2 is the number of output pulses. The range is between 0–2,147,483,647. When you set the number of pulses to 0,
then the number of pulses is not restricted and pulses are output continuously until the instruction is disabled.
6-884
4. After the instruction starts to output pulses, the number of output pulses that S2 specifies cannot be changed.
5. S3 sets the ramp-up or ramp down time with the unit of 1ms. The value is effective when the instruction is executed
for the first time. If the target frequency specified by S1 is modified in the ramp-up process, the ramp up or ramp down
time is reloaded for execution. But if the target frequency is modified when the output enters the ramp-down process,
the instruction ignores the change.
6. D only allows Y0.0–Y0.11 as the pulse output devices. After the instruction is executed, its output function becomes
the high-speed output, and the general instruction output point control is invalid. It is suggested that you do not use
the general output function after using the high-speed output function in the program.
7. The target output frequency S1, number of output pulses S2 and ramp up/down time S3 are illustrated in the following
graphic.
8. The ratio of Duty-OFF Time and Duty-ON Time for the pulse output is 1:1. 6_
first.
10. After the high-speed output instruction for one output point is enabled, other instructions that occupy the same output
point can not start until the high-speed output instruction in execution is disabled.
11. When the high-speed output instruction is executed in an interrupt program or is not in the main program, it is
suggested that you use the instruction with the auto-reset function when the output is completed and the PLC updates
the output state in the END instruction.
12. After the stop flag is set, PLC performs the ramp-down stop; or it immediately stops the output only after the start
instruction is executed a second time and outputs a full pulse.
13. Refer to the PLSY instruction (API 2700) for an explanation of the high-speed output points and corresponding SM/SR.
14. Refer to Example 3 from the PLSY instruction (API 2700) for programming in ST language.
6-885
15. When the target output frequency is reached, you can change the set target output frequency. The frequencies for
ramp up and ramp down are already set, if you change the set target output frequency during the instruction execution,
the frequency goes either ramping up or ramping down. If more than one target output frequencies are set, it is
suggested to set the last new target frequency the same as the original target frequency to avoid abrupt change when
it needs to come to a stop.

5. If S1≦0 or S2≦0, it is processed as 0 (the pulse output is OFF). If S1＞S2, it is processed as S1＝S2. When S1＝S2

S3 ： Ramp-down time
D1 ： Pulse output device
D2 ： Auxiliary output device
Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the JOG output (S1 , S2 , S3) for the devices specified in D1 and D2. S1 is the ramp-up time
with the unit of 10 ms. For Example , the value 10 means the ramp-up time is 100 ms. After the instruction is
executed, the output frequency can be divided by ten, and it speeds up once every 10ms. It reaches the JOG
target frequency specified by S2 at the ramp-up time S1.
2. When the instruction is disabled, its output frequency ramps down once every 10ms based on the ramp-down time
in S3. The output does not stop until reaching the ramp-down time. If you set the ramp-down time to 0, the output
stops immediately.
6-890
3. The range of the ramp-up time S1 and the ramp-down time S3 is between 0–3000 (0–30 seconds). If the setting
value is out of range, the PLC processes it as the minimum or maximum output value. The ramp-up time and
ramp-down time are affected by the scan time. If you require accurate ramp-up or ramp-down time, it is
recommended that you use an output instruction with specified ramp up or ramp down time such as the DDRVI
4. The range of the target output frequency S2 is between -200 kHz to 200 kHz. If the setting value is out of the range,
the PLC processes it as the minimum or maximum output value. A positive number for the output frequency
indicates forward output. A negative number for the output frequency indicates reverse output.
5. D1 allows only Y0.0–Y0.11 for the output point. For the auxiliary output point specified by D2, refer to the output
points in the following table. If you choose other output points or the M device, the value in SR indicating the output
mode is invalid and the Pulse+direction mode is valid by default. D2 is a direction output point.
D1 selects the even output point number.

6. When the value is 0 in SR462, SR482, SR502, SR522, SR542, and SR562, it indicates the Pulse+direction output
mode. When the value is 1 in SR462, SR482, SR502, SR522, SR542, and SR562, it indicates the A/B phase
output mode.
Note: you can select the output mode only when D1 uses an even output point and D2 uses a recommended
direction output point.
7. When the direction outputs are not using the default outputs to output, you can refer to the table below for setting
up the outputting time that pulse outputting goes first before direction outputting does. So that you can be sure the
outputting only happens when switching to the direction outputs. The unit for SR is millisecond and the range is 0-
20 ms. Default is 0, indicating inactive.

10. You can modify the target output frequency during instruction execution but you can NOT change the ramp-up or
ramp-down time. When the new target frequency is greater than the previous one, the instruction uses the ramp-up
slope. When the new frequency is less than the previous one, the instruction uses the ramp-down slope.
11. The instruction sets the ramp-up/down slope through conversion of the set time and target frequency when the
instruction is executed. The slope does not change with the changing target frequency in the output process. For
example, the original target output frequency is 1 kHz and then it is modified to 2 kHz. The actual ramp-down time

is different from the original time. The dotted line is the ramp-up and ramp down timing diagram after the target
frequency is modified.

12. If there is any change on the frequency during ramp up or ramp down, the change can only be carried out after the
original frequency completes outputting. For example, if the new target frequency is 100 Hz and the ramp-up timing
is set at 100 (1 second), after the original frequency completes outputting, the new target frequency 100 Hz will be
outputted next. (Even though the target frequency changes every 10 ms but if the pulse does NOT complete
outputting, the change can NOT be applied.)
Example (ST program): 6_

It is suggested to use ladder diagrams as the programming language in this instruction. If you need to use structured
texts, you need to use the output completion auto-reset flag as well for the PLC to know the output point is free and
ready to be used again when the output completes. Taking Y0.0 as the output point, the program should be written as
below. See the following example.

Explanation
1. This instruction causes the machine to return to the zero point. The range of the target frequency for zero return S1
is between 1 Hz–200 kHz. The JOG frequency S2 should be less than the target frequency S1. The JOG frequency
S2 is the start frequency. If S1 is less than S2, S1 is automatically revised processed as equal to S2.
2. The input point for S4 and output point for D must match. Do not change them during instruction execution. The
input point for S4 is suggested to use the 16 high-speed input points X0.0–X0.15. They will not be affected by PLC
instruction scan time. If you use X1.0 successive input points or M devices (firmware V1.02.10 or above is
required), they will be affected by the PLC instruction scan time. Refer to the following table for the selection of D
output point and direction output point. If D is not the preset Pulse+direction output (default: 0), change the mode
to A/B phase output by setting SR to 1.

7. The Completion flag is set to ON after the instruction finishes performing the specified function. For example, for
function code 6, the PLC sets the Completion flag to ON only when the Z phase seeking completes.

2. Y1.4 is specified as the output point for outputting the clear signal in HWCONFIG.
3. S3 is set as 16#FE0C000E.
High 16-bit [0002] is to search for the Z phase twice, once the axis moves away from the DOG signal.
Low 16-bit [0007] is Mode 7; when the DOG signal is received, the axis moves in the negative direction; after the

S ： Pulse output frequency
D2 ： Pulse direction output device
Explanation
_6
1. This instruction adjusts the pulse output frequency and direction (S) for the devices specified in D and D2. S specifies
the pulse output frequency: for line driver output models, the range is between -4 MHz to +4 MHz; for open collector
output models, the range is between -200 kHz to +200 kHz. The minus sign and plus sign indicate the positive
direction and negative pulse direction. You can change the pulse output frequency during the pulse output; but if the
new frequency is different from the previous frequency in direction, the instruction stops the output, and one cycle
later it outputs the target frequency again in the new direction.
2. Refer to the following table for the selection of pulse output devices for D1 and D2. When the output mode for D1
and D2 is not the default Pulse+direction output (0 is the default value), modify the mode by setting SR to 1, which
changes the mode to A/B phase output.

3. The output point for the pulse direction output device D2 is affected by the scan cycle if it is not the recommended
output point in the table above.
4. The pulse direction output device D2 changes its own state according to the minus or plus sign in S. D2 is OFF if S
is plus (+) and D2 is ON if S is minus (-).
5. There is no ramp-up or ramp-down setting in the instruction. The instruction does not perform a ramp-up
operation at the beginning or ramp-down at stopping. If you want the ramp-up and ramp-down function, use the
DRAMP instruction (API 0703) for increasing and decreasing the pulse output frequency.
6. While the instruction is executing the pulse output, the output immediately stops if the drive condition changes to
OFF.
up the time for directional outputting goes first before pulse outputting. So that you can be sure the outputting only
happens when switching to the direction outputs. The unit for SR is millisecond and the range is 0-20 ms. Default is

Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the output pulse setting for relative positioning. S1 is the number of output pulses (relative
positioning). The range is between -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647, and the +/- signs indicate the positive and
negative pulse directions. When the instruction is executed and S1 is 0, it indicates not outputting and output
completion flag not be set to ON. If 0 is a possible output number in your program, it is suggested to add more
conditions in your program to rule out this possibility.
2. S2 is the pulse output frequency, and the range is between 0 Hz–200 kHz for open collector output models and 0–4
MHz for line driver output models. If the value in S2 is less than the Start/end frequency (Hz) set in SR (refer to the
SR table below for more details), PLC operates according to the values set in SR.
3. Refer to the following table for the selection of pulse output devices for D1 and D2. When the output mode for D1
and D2 is not the default Pulse+direction output (0 is the default value), modify the mode by setting SR to 1, which
changes the mode into A/B phase output.

4. The output point for the pulse direction output device D2 is affected by the scan cycle if it is not the recommended

5. When D2 uses the output mode Pulse+direction and S1 has a minus sign, D2 is ON. When S1 has a plus sign, D2 is
OFF. D2 is not OFF immediately after the pulse output in the negative direction is completed. D2 switches to OFF
when the contact for the execution of the instruction is OFF.

8. After output completion auto-reset is enabled, the flag is automatically reset to OFF when the output completes.
You must set the flag to ON again if the auto-reset function is needed for the next output operation. It is suggested
that you use the rising-edge or falling-edge to trigger the flag every time. The function is usually used when the
output DDRVI instruction cannot be scanned and executed by PLC program after DDRVI is executed. For
example, when the instruction is executed in an interrupt program.
9. If you use the Completion flag to set the I interrupt function, the flag is automatically reset to OFF when the output
completes and the interrupt program starts. You must set the flag to ON again for the next output in which the
interrupt occurs. It is suggested that you use the rising-edge or falling-edge to trigger the flag every time.
up the time for directional outputting goes first before pulse outputting. So that you can be sure the outputting only
_6 happens when switching to the direction outputs. The unit for SR is millisecond and the range is 0-20 ms. Default is
0, indicating inactive.

Positive output limit: the output stops immediately if the current position is greater than the positive limit position.
Negative output limit: the output stops immediately if the current position is less than the negative limit position.
When the positive and negative limits are both 0, the software limit function cannot start. Since the software limit
function checks the output position when the output instruction is scanned, stopping the output is affected by the
PLC scan. To quickly stop the output in real time, use the external input point as the limit point.

7. ST Example
Explanation
7.1 When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 1000 pulses at 1 kHz.
7.2 When the pulse output completes, SM461 is ON and SM470=ON is triggered.
7.3 The pulse output restarts when M0 changes from OFF to ON again
7.4 When there are more than two high-speed output instructions in a program, do not use the variable name, M1,
repeatedly.
7.5 It is suggested not to use ST language in a program if there is any chance the outputting needed to be
stopped.
8. Function block example

Function block 2
Explanation
When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 10000 pulse at 1kHz. Y0.1 = OFF means the pulse output direction is positive.
9. Be sure to refer to PLSR instruciton (API2701) for more details on changing target frequency during outputting.
Remember if there is any change on the target frequency, the change can only be carried out after the original
target frequency completes outputting.
10. Changing the target position during outputting:

10.1 This function is only available for firmware version 1.02.30 or later. You cannot change outputting direction
even after the target position is changed. For example, if the original output target position is in the positive
direction, after the target positon is changed, it still outputs in the positive positive.
10.2 After you set the change flag, the changing happens when the instruction is being scanned. And after it is
changed, the change flag is cleared off. But if the target position is set incorrectly, the change flag keeps ON.
10.3 Refer to the following table for the corresponding outputs and change flag SM.
_6 Output point Y0.0 Y0.1 Y0.2 Y0.3 Y0.4 Y0.5

10.4 This changing target posiiton funciton is available for DDRVI and DDRVA insturcitos. When the instruction
DDRVI is used and a change flag is set, the change will be executed. Even if the output number is 0, the
operation will be carried out and stop outputting. When the instruction DDRVA is used, if the changed target
position is the same as the previous one, this change will not be performed.

S1 ： Number of output pulses (absolute positioning)
S2 ： Pulse output frequency
_6 D1 ： Pulse output device
Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the output pulse setting for absolute positioning. S1 is the number of output pulses (absolute
positioning). The range is between -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647, and +/- signs indicate the positive and
negative pulse directions. When the instruction is executed, it checks the current position with S1. If S1 is 0, it indicates
not outputting and output completion flag not be set to ON. If 0 is a possible output number in your program, it is
suggested to add more conditions in your program to rule out this possibility.
2. S2 is the pulse output frequency and the range is between 0 Hz–4 MHz for the line driver output models and 0 Hz–
200 kHz for the open collector output models. If the value in S2 is less than the Start/end frequency (Hz) set in SR
(refer to the SR table of DRVI instruction for more details), PLC operates according to the values set in SR.
3. Absolute positioning means that the instruction outputs pulses to move from current position until the specified target
position is reached. For example, the number of output pulses at current position is 100 and the number of pulses at
the target position S1 is set to 1000. So the number of the actual output pulses is 1000-100=900.
4. Refer to the DDRVI instruction (API 2706) for more explanation.
6-920
Example
If the value of the present output position SR460 (32-bit) is 100 and M10 is ON, then the DDRVA instruction causes Y0.0
to output pulses at 2 kHz until the value in SR460 becomes 20,000 (absolute positioning). Y0.1 = OFF means the positive
direction.

Explanation
1. This instruction specifies the catch speed and proportional output. S1 can only specify X0.0, X0.2, X0.4, X0.6, X0.8
and X0.10 as the input points, and the operand occupies two consecutive input points. You cannot execute the
instruction if the input points are the points specified for S1 above. After you select the input points, the high-speed
counter is automatically specified. If there is a DCNT instruction (API 1004) with the same high-speed counter in
6-922
the program, the PLC first executes the instruction that starts the counter first. The input points and corresponding
high-speed counters are shown in the following table.

2. If the high-speed counters for the instruction can use only the phase A/B input mode, set the flag for reversing the
input direction to ON when MPG is connected but has not rotated yet, and the PLC input point is ON. Set the
function to detect the state of PLC run cycle to OFF.
3. S2 is the number of input pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter.
4. S3 is the frequency of input pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter with the unit of 1 Hz.
5. S4 is the denominator (output frequency) for the proportion of the input frequency and output frequency. S5 is the
numerator (input frequency) for the proportion of the input frequency and output frequency. The range of S4 and S5 6_
is between 1–255. If the setting value exceeds the range, the instruction is processed as the maximum or minimum
value. For example, if input frequency: output frequency= 5:3, the denominator output frequency is K3 and the
numerator input frequency is K5. If the input frequency: output frequency=1:2, the denominator output frequency is
K2 and the numerator input frequency is K1.
6. D1 can only specify Y0.0, Y0.2, Y0.4, Y0.6, Y0.8 and Y0.10 as the output points and occupies two consecutive
output points.
The output points and corresponding output mode SR are shown in the following table.
Output axis number 1 2 3 4 5 6
D1+0 output point Y0.0 Y0.2 Y0.4 Y0.6 Y0.8 Y0.10
D1+1 output point Y0.1 Y0.3 Y0.5 Y0.7 Y0.9 Y0.11
7. D2 is the frequency of the output pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter with the unit of 1 Hz.

8. There is no limit to the number of times you can use this instruction; but the high-speed input and output points
cannot be used by other instructions when this instruction is executed. Otherwise, the instruction cannot be
executed.
only once.
Notes
1. The PLC calculates the input pulse frequency based on the input pulse width (ON) in the positive half cycle. If the
proportion of the pulse width for ON:pulse width for OFF is not 1:1, the PLC takes the ON width as the standard for
conversion by default.
2. The input pulse=ON means the input point LED is on. When using the MPG but it has not rotated yet, you can check
if the input point LED is OFF and the flag for reversing the input direction is activated .
3. For PLC with FW V1.04.70 (V1.04.70 included) or later, the minimum pluse frequence for input and output is 50 Hz.
If the actual input pulse is 10 Hz and the value in S3 shows 10 Hz. But since the minimum pulse frequence for output
is 50 Hz, the instruction uses 50 Hz instead of 10 Hz to calculate. For the ratio 1:2, after conversion, the output pulse
is 100 Hz. For the ratio 2:1, after conversion, the output pulse is 50 Hz instead of 25 or 5 Hz.
4. You can modify values in S4 or S5 during the execution of this instruction. But you need to re-execute this instruction
to actualize this modification. Otherwise the value in S2 is not accurate enough to be used for calculating the current
_6 output position of SR.
5. After conversion, if the output pulse frequecne exceeds the maximum limit, the error code is recorded as 16#2030 in
Error Log File in ISPSoft and SM29 is ON. SR29 is the axis number. This function is available for PLC with FW
V1.06.20 (V1.06.20 included) or later.
6. If the input pulse is 0 Hz and lasts for more than 2 seconds, PLC stops outputting automatically and the error code is
recorded as 16#2031 in Error Log File in ISPSoft and SM29 is ON. SR29 is the axis number. This function is
available for PLC with FW V1.06.20 (V1.06.20 included) or later.
Example 1
X0.0/X0.1 input pulses for detecting the MPG. When M0 is ON, the setting values of S4 and S5 are both 1 (D4=1 and
D5=1). When the input frequency is 10 Hz (D2, D3=10) and the number of pulses is 10 (D0, D1=10), the output axis
(Y0.0/Y0.1) outputs 10 pulses (SR460, SR461=10) at 10Hz (D10, D11=10).
6-924
Example 2
When M0 is ON, the setting values of S4 and S5 are 3 and 5 (D4=3, D5=5) respectively. When the input frequency of the
MPG is 500 Hz (D2, D3=500) and the number of pulses is 2500 (D0, D1=2500), the output axis (Y0.0/Y0.1) outputs 1500
pulses (SR460, SR461=1500) at 300 Hz (D10, D11=300).

6-926
Explanation
1. This instruction performs mark alignment positioning. When the value of S1 is 0, it indicates the output is a
maximum 32-bit value (with a sign) and the output does not perform the ramp-down stop until receiving the mark
signal.
If the value of S1 is not 0 and the external interrupt does not occur, the target number output pulses are output. The
range of S1 is between -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647, and the +/- sign means the positive or negative direction.
2. When the value of S2 is less than or equal to 0, the output is not enabled. If the output frequency is greater than the
maximum frequency, the PLC processes it as the maximum output frequency.
3. S3 can specify the M or X device as the input point. The input source signal is affected by the scan cycle if the
selected input point is not in X0.0–X0.15 in the PLC.
4. You must use the instruction by combining the input point number and the external interrupt program to achieve the
real-time ramp-down output. For the rising-edge or falling-edge trigger for the external interrupt, select the triggers
in the external interrupt program in ISPSoft.
A. Using the external interrupt (e.g. I0xx, I1xx): when the external interrupt occurs, the ramp-down stop is
performed after the mark signal is received. No operation is performed if the external interrupt is not enabled.
B. Without using the external interrupt (I0xx, I1xx): When the instruction is executed, the ramp-down stop is
performed after the mark signal is received if the rising edge occurs at X point or M device. It is affected by the
scan time. 6_
5. The number of output pulses in the fore mask section is between 1–S4. When the setting value for S4 is 0, it means
the fore- mask section function is disabled. When the number of pulses to be masked exceeds the value of S1, the
instruction takes the target number of output pulses S1 as the number to be masked. If the external input trigger
occurs within the number of output pulses to be masked, the external input interrupt is automatically invalid.
6. The number of output pulses in the rear mask section is between S5 and S1. When S5 =0 or S5 >=S1, the rear mask
section function is disabled. When the external input trigger occurs in the masked sections, the external input
interrupt is automatically invalid. When S4 >S5, it indicates the external input interrupt is invalid in the output process.
7. If the fore and rear mask sections are both set and S4 < S5, the valid input interrupt occurs in the section between
S4+1 and S5-1.

9. For PLC with FW V1.06.00 (V1.06.00 included) or later: If S6 is set to 0 after the mark signal is received, it means
that the ramp-down stop is performed based on the ramp-down time. If S6 is set to -1 after the mark signal is
received, it means that the output immediately stops. If S6 is set to >0 after the mark signal is received and if the
setting value of S6 is not enough to achieve the ramp-down stop within the ramp-down time, the instruction limits
the target frequency and performs the ramp-down stop in accordance with the set ramp-down time. If S6 is greater
than the number of pulses output within the ramp-down time, the instruction outputs the number of redundant

Notes

1. When M0 changes from OFF to ON, Y0.0 starts to output pulses. After outputting more than 30,000 pulses, the
external interrupt is detected on X0.4. The value in D0 increases by 1 and the pulse output stops after 15,000 pulses
(S6 = 15,000). If the interrupt does not occur, the output does not stop until 100,000 pulses are output.
2. If the number of output pulses is between 1–30,000, they are in the fore mask section. The external interrupt occurs
at X0.4 at the moment and the instruction does not perform the ramp-down stop operation.
3. If the number of output pulses is between 70,000–100,000, they are in the rear mask section. The external interrupt
occurs at X0.4 at the moment and the instruction still does not perform the ramp-down stop operation.

S2 ： Number of output pulses for the Y axis
S3 ： Maximum point-to-point output frequency
D1 ： Pulse output device for the X axis
D2 ： Pulse output device for the Y axis
Explanation
1. This instruction performs 2-axis relative-coordinate point-to-point synchronized motion. S1 and S2 specify the
number of output pulses (relative positioning) for the X and Y axes. The range is between: -2,147,483,648 to
+2,147,483,647, and the +/- sign indicates the positive/negative direction.
2. S3 specifies the maximum point to point output frequency. The range is between 1 Hz–200 kHz.
3. For firmware V1.08.70 or later, you can change the target frequency during execution of the instruction. After the
original target frequency completes outputting, new target frequency can be used. And the ramp up and ramp down
time from the original target frequency to the new target frequency is calculated according to the interval frequency
and interval time since the instruction is enabled. Refer to DPLSR instruction for the details on the actual movement
in the ramp down section that is between the new target frequency and the next target frequency.
6-935
4. D1 and D2 are the output devices for the X and Y axes respectively. You can designate the following six axes for
output but you cannot change the fixed direction output points. The direction signal: OFF means in positive direction
and ON is in negative direction. If you do not use the preset Pulse+direction output mode (default: 0), change the
output mode by setting SR to 1.

5. The PLC assigns the value of S3 to the X or Y axis depending on which outputs the largest number of pulses. If the
numbers of pulses output for the two axes are excessively different, so that no proper output frequency can be
calculated through the numbers of their output pulses, the PLC automatically decreases the maximum point to point
frequency and without any error message appearing.
6. The instruction uses the parameters such as the start and end frequencies and ramp-up and ramp-down times for
the axes the instruction executes. Instead of the originally configured parameters for the axes, the X axis
parameters are taken as the reference source. For example, when the X axis selects axis 1 and the Y axis selects
axis 3 for the output, axis 1 parameters become the parameter sources for the start frequency and ramp up and
ramp-down time.
_6
7. The following table shows the flags for the axes and the corresponding SM/SR.
Start/end frequency SR463 SR483 SR503 SR523 SR543 SR563
Ramp-up time SR464 SR484 SR504 SR524 SR544 SR564
Ramp-down time SR465 SR485 SR505 SR525 SR545 SR565
8. There is no limit to how many times you can use the instruction in a program. But during the execution of the
instruction, it cannot execute the output (if the Y axis output is being used) until the Y axis completes its output and
is released.
9. When the 2-axis synchronized pulse output completes, the corresponding Completion flags for the two axes is set.
Since the same timing for the completion of the 2-axis synchronized pulse output cannot be ensured every time, the
program should check the Completion flags of both axes before executing the next user program.

2. Steps:
 Set the coordinates of four points (0, 0), (-27000, -27000), (0, -55000), (27000, -27000) as in the figure
above. Calculate the relative coordinates of the four points and obtain (-27000, -27000),
(27000, -28000), (27000, 28000), and (-27000, 27000). Place them in the 32-bit registers (D200, D202), (D204,
D206), (D208, D210), (D212, D214).
 RUN the program in the PLC. Set M0 to ON to start the 2-axis line drawing.

6-937

3. Operation:
When PLC runs the program and M0 is ON, the PLC starts the first point-to-point motion at 100 kHz. D0 increments by 1
whenever a point-to-point motion is completed and the second point-to-point motion starts to execute automatically. The
operation pattern repeats until the fourth point-to-point motion completes.
Example 2 (ST program)
6-938
Explanation
1. When M0 is ON, Y0.0 and Y0.2 outputs 1000 pulses at 1kHz simultaneously. When M1 is ON, it indicates Y0.0 and
Y0.2 are used for high-speed pulse output.
2. When the Y0.0 pulse output is completed, SM461 is ON. When the Y0.2 pulse output is completed, SM481 is ON.
And if M1 is also ON, it triggers SM470 (output completion auto-reset for Y0.0) and SM490 (output completion
auto-reset for Y0.2) to be ON. Y0.0 and Y0.2 are free and ready to be used again and M1 is cleared to OFF.
3. When M0 switches from OFF to ON, the pulse output is restarted.
4. When there are more than two high-speed output instructions in a program, do not use the variable name, M1,
repeatedly.
5. It is suggested not to use ST language in a program if there is any chance the outputting needed to be stopped.

Example
1. Draw a DELTA LOGO as the figure below.
2. Steps: divide the logo into three parts.
 For an ellipse: use the DCICR instruction (API 2712) for the relative-position counterclockwise arc interpolation.
 The absolute coordinates of the ellipse: P1(39930，-9982), P4 (123119，73206), P3 (73206，123119) and P2 (-

When the PLC runs the program and M1 is ON, the PLC starts drawing the first segment of the clockwise arc at
50kHz. D1 increments by 1 when a segment of arc is completed and the second segment of arc starts to
automatically execute. The operation pattern repeats until the fourth segment of arc is completed.
When D1=1, using DCICCR, the PLC draws the first-segment arc from P1 to P4 with the shift of the center of the
circle: -110295 and arc resolution: 5.
When D1=2, using DCICCR, the PLC draws the second-segment arc from P4 to P3 with the shift of the center of
the circle: -18825 and arc resolution: 5.
When D1=3, using DCICCR, the PLC draws the third-segment arc from P3 to P2 with the shift of the center of the

Explanation:
1. This instruction uses the position planning table to control the output. S is the number listed in the position planning
table. If the number does not exist in the table, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON and the error code is
SR0=16#2027.
2. S is the first output number when PLC runs. Refer to the value in D1 if there are consecutive-number outputs during
the output.
3. When one single number or the first one of consecutive numbers is output, the switch flag D2 is set to OFF. When
the consecutive-number output reaches the output number to be switched to, D2 is ON for a scan cycle and then is
ON again until the last number output is completed.

4. The switch flag D2 is affected by the PLC scan time. If the time for switching to the next output number is shorter
than the scan time, the flag for switching to the output number may not reset to OFF.
only once.
6. If using the function Single-axis multi-segment motion and the firmware is below V1.07.10, you cannot use the stop
flag during output. If you need to stop outputting, use this instruction instead.
7. For firmware V1.08.00 or later, you can use the stop flag during output to stop the output. If you use the stop flag
and this instruction, it will stop output after this segment is done outputting. For example, supposing the segments
are 1, 2 and 3 for output in a consecutive order and you use the stop flag while outputting segment 2. The system
will complete outputting segment 2 and then after you switch the stop flag to OFF, the execution of this instruction
will resume in the segment 3.
_6
8. If using the funciton Single-axis point-to-pint motion to output, and using the stop flag during the output, this
instruciton will stop execution and resume execution and output the remainings after the stop flag is OFF.
9. If using the fucntion 2-axis arc interpolation, and using the stop flag during the output, this instruciton will stop
execution after one basic unit of arc interpolation (1 degree) and this instruciotn resumes execution after the stop
flag is OFF, and output the remainings.

Example 1:
1. Enable the mechanical unit conversion function
2. Set the position planning table and download the parameters
The target position is 2000 (Unit:mm). After converting in the position planing table, 400,000 output pulses are
downloaded and saved in the PLC.
When M0 is ON, Y0.0 outputs 400,000 pulses at 100kHz. After the output completes, M100 is ON.
Example 2: Use global symbol or D device in Target Position
1. Use D device in Target Position of the position planning table and download the parameters. 6_
The unit for D60 in PLC is pulse by default. If you need to use D devices in Target position and in the
mechanical unit, you need to convert the mechanical unit to pulse.
2. When M0 is ON, and D60 is 400,000. Y0.0 outputs 400,000 pulses at 100kHz. After the output completes,
M100 is ON.
Note: the unit is pulse, when you use global symbols, D devices, or instructions including DTPWS, DTPWL,
and DTPWC to input values in in Target Postion.
6-969
3. If global symbols are used in Target Position
A. You need to assign an address for the global symbol.
B. Use global symbols in Target Position of the planning table.
Example 3: Use abort symbol and completion flag
1. Set up the positioning planning table as shown below.
2. Abort signal: When No. 3 stops the outputting abruptly, M100 is ON and the system starts to output No. 4
immediately.
The abort symbol is applicable for the following conditionss: external interrupts, high-speed comparision
_6 interrupts and M devices (M0~8191).
3. Completion flag: When No. 4 completes the outputting, M777 is ON. When the execution of this positioning
planning table is complete, the system calls for an interrupt or starts a M device.
You can use the interupt numbers I510~519 and M device (M0~M8191) in the positioning planning table.
Note: If you use interrupts instead of M devices, PLC scan cycle is not affected.

Explanation 6_
1. This instruction sets the single-axis output parameters in the position planning table. S1 is the number listed in the
position planning table. If the number does not exist in the table, or the number is not under Single-axis point-to-
point motion, or under Single-axis multi-segment motion, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON and the error
code is SR0=16#2027.
2. S2 is the target position (must be a 32-bit integer). If you use the mechanical unit conversion when editing the
position planning table in ISPSoft, use the conversion instruction for modification first.
3. S3 is the target speed. The range is between 1–200,000Hz. Note: The maximum speed of the output axis Y0 and Y2
is 4 MHz for AS324MT.
4. When the instruction is executed to modify the parameters for the single axis which is outputting pulses, the modified
parameters are kept in the table and are not effective until the next output starts.
6-973
5. The parameters modified by the instruction can only be modified while the PLC is running. The last written
parameter is not saved when the power turns OFF. The table that you edit in ISPSoft and download to the PLC is
processed as the default position planning table when the power is ON.
6. This instruction does NOT modify the acceleration or deceleration time. If you need to modify the time for
acceleration or deceleration, you can set SM585 flag to ON, and the system refers to the acceleration and
deceleration time set in SR to change the acceleration time in single-axis point-to-point motion and single-axis multi-
segment motion or the deceleration time in single-axis point-to-point motion. Re-execute this instruction to actualize
this modification. This function is available for PLC with FW V1.06.00.
Example 1: Change the parameters of Axis 3 of Number 5 during execution in Single-axis point-to-point motion.
1) Use DMOV instruction to define new target position and target speed.
2) Use MOV instruction to define the start/end frequency in SR503, acceleration time in SR504 and deceleration
time in SR505 for Axis 3. After that the relative parameters in single-axis point-to-point motion are updated.
3) Set the flag SM585 to ON.
4) Re-execute DTPWS instruciton to actualize the modification.
_6 5) After that, SM585 switches to OFF automatically.
Example 2: Change the parameters of Axis 3 of Number 2 during execution in Single-axis multi-segment motion.
1) Use DMOV instruction to define new target position and target speed.
2) Use MOV instruction to define the acceleration time in SR504. After that the relative parameters in single-axis
multi-segment motion are updated.
3) Set the flag SM585 to ON.
4) Re-execute DTPWS instruciton to actualize the modification.
5) After that, SM585 switches to OFF automatically.

1. This instruction sets the 2-axis linear interpolation parameters in the position planning table. S1 is the number listed
in the position planning table. If the number does not exist in the table or the output of the number does not belong
to the 2-axis linear interpolation, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON and the error code is SR0=16#2027.
2. S2 and S3 are respectively the target positions of the X and Y axes, which can only be 32-bit integers. If you use the
mechanical unit conversion when editing the position planning table in ISPSoft, use the conversion instruction for
modification first.
6-975
3. S4 is the target speed. The range is between 1–200,000Hz.
4. When the instruction executes the linear interpolation, the target frequency S4 automatically corresponds to the
output of the axis which is farthest from its target position. If X axis and Y axis cannot simultaneous reach the target
positions, the PLC automatically decelerates the frequency to make the two axes reach the target positions
simultaneously.
5. When the instruction is executed to modify parameters for the two axes (either of which is outputting), the modified
parameters of the two axes are kept in the table and are not effective until the next 2-axis output starts.

the 2-axis arc interpolation, the instruction is not executed, SM0 is ON and the error code is SR0=16#2027.
2. S2 and S3 are respectively the target positon on the X and Y axes. S4 is the distance to shift the center. The three

Explanation
1. This high speed output instruction specifies a movement going back and forth between two target positions that are
converted from the two relative target positions specified by S1 and S2. This instruction is applicable for machines
such as warping machines in the textile industry, and winding & binding machines in the cable industry.
2. When the instruction starts the output, the relative positions S1 and S2 must be specified first so that the instruction
can make the calculation for switching to the next output. After the instruction is executed, you can modify the
target positions to execute, but you cannot change the outputting target positions.
6-979
 DPPGB instruction is executed. When S1 is 30,000 and S2 is -30,000, the motion goes toward the target position
A1=30,000.
 If the pulse position>15,000, the relative positions are modified into S1:20,000 and S2:-20,000, and the target
position is momentarily A1=30,000. The target positions obtained through calculation are B1=10,000(A1+ S2) and
A2=30,000(B1+ S1), since the outputting target positions cannot be modified.
3. S3 is the target speed (must be a 32-bit integer), and S4 is the target speed ratio adjusted value (must be a floating
point number). The actual speed is the result of multiplying the values in S3 and S4 and then rounding down the
calculation result to a 32-bit integer. The acceptable input speed range is 1–200 kHz. When values are out of
_6
range, the PLC automatically processes the value as the minimum or the maximum of the operation range. The
ratio formula for the actual target speed is S3 x S4. For instance, if target speed is 1 kHz, the adjusted floating point
is 1.2345 and the actual value is 1234 Hz.
4. When the instruction is outputting, the target speed and the adjusted ratio can be modified, and the result is
updated to the actual output speed once the instruction is scanned. But it is suggested that you do not change the
target speed too much in case the calculated deceleration is affected.
5. The output points for D1 can only be Y0.0, Y0.2, Y0.4, Y0.6, Y0.8 and Y0.10, and it occupies 2 consecutive output
points. The output sets and the output special register modes are listed in the following table.
Output axis number 1 2 3 4 5 6
D1+0 output points Y0.0 Y0.2 Y0.4 Y0.6 Y0.8 Y0.10
D1+1 output points Y0.1 Y0.3 Y0.5 Y0.7 Y0.9 Y0.11
Output modes SR462 SR482 SR502 SR522 SR542 SR562
6. D2 is the flag indicating the target speed and the adjusted ratio that you can change. When this flag is ON, the
executing target speed can be modified. When the flag switches from ON to OFF, it is now decelerating and the
current target speed will be processes as the target speed for the next output.
6-980
7. There is no limit on the number of times you can execute this instruction, but during execution, the designated high
speed axis cannot be occupied by any other instruction, and the other instruction is not executed.

Explanation
1. This instruction is available for PLC with FW V1.04.90 (V1.04.90 included) or later.
2. This instruction causes the machine to return to the zero point. The range of the target frequency (TFreq) for zero
return is between 1 Hz–200 kHz. The JOG frequency (JFreq) should be less than the target frequency (TFreq).
The JOG frequency (JFreq) is the start frequency. If the target frequency (TFreq) is less than (JFreq), the target
frequency (TFreq) is automatically revised processed as equal to (JFreq).
3. Do not change the operands DOG, NL, Pulse, or Dir during instruction execution. The input point for DOG and NL
is suggested to use the 16 high-speed input points X0.0–X0.15. They will not be affected by PLC instruction scan
time. If you use X1.0 successive input points or M devices, they will be affected by the PLC instruction scan time.
4. See the below descriptions for DOG, NL and Dir.
You can use X or M device but do NOT choose the same input point for different axis.
DOG point When the DOG point uses X0.0–X0.15 for inputs, go to HWCONFIG to set up the
filtering time for the inputs if the switch starts to rattle.
NL point You can use X or M device but do NOT choose the same input point for different axis.
Dir contact You can use Y or M device but do NOT choose the same input point for different axis.

S: Number of station to be initialized
Explanation
1. Before executing the instruction, if the PLC CPU is AS300, be sure to select Delta Special Driver & AS Remote 6_
Mode as the working mode for function card 2 in the hardware configuration software (HWCONFIG) in ISPSoft. If
the PLC CPU is AS200 or AS100, make sure the working mode for the built-in CAN communication port is selected
to Delta Serve Drives in HWCONFIG.
2. The servo range of S is 1–8. When the input value is greater than 8, PLC will automatically process 8 as the value
of S for the initialization. The station address must start at 1 and the following addresses cannot be skipped or
reserved.
3. When the PLC firmware is V1.02.00 or later, S ranging from 21 to 28 is added for inverters. For the input value that
is not in the range of 21 to 28, this instruction will not be executed. Same rule applies to the servo; the station
address must start at 21 and the following address should be in consecutive order.
4. When setting the number of station to be initialized to 5, this instruction initializes station address from 1 to 5. And
when setting the number of station to be initialized to 23, this instruction initializes station address from 21 to 23.
When there are 5 servo systems and 3 inverters that need to be initialized, you need to execute this instruction
twice. One is INITC 5 for 5 servo systems and the other is INITC 23 for 3 inverters.
5. When you execute this instruction (SM1686 = OFF) on servos (S is 1–8), SM1681 is set to OFF and the states of
6-993
servo 1 to 8 are reset to uninitialized. SM1681 is set to ON when the initializations on servo 1 to 8 are complete.
SM1683 is set to OFF and S is 21–28, the states of servo 21 to 28 are reset to uninitialized. SM1683 is set to ON
when the initializations on servo 21 to 28 are complete.
Note: The initialization flags are used for notifying if the initialization is done or not. After that if you use parameters
in this instruction, these two flags are used as completion flags for the execution of the instruction.
6. SM1682 is set to ON when an error occurs during communication. In addition, SR658 retains the number of the
axis in which the error occurs and SR659 retains the error code. (The flag and code here are especially for Delta
CANOpen Communication Instructions.)
7. For firmware V1.06.40 or later, a new functional SM1686 is added for initializing only one specified slave. For
example if you set SM1686 to OFF and execute INITC 3 indicates the slaves 1, 2 and 3 will be initialized. After that
if you set SM1686 to ON, execute INITC 6 indicates only the slave 6 will be initialized. And then together you will
have slaves 1, 2, 3, and 6 initialized.
Note: if you need to initialize multiple slaves and single slave, you need to set SM1686 to OFF first to have multiple
slaves initialized and then set SM1686 to ON for single initializations, but not the other way around.
8. If a heartbeat error (SR0 = 0x1900~0x191C; last 2 codes are the slave ID) occurs after the initialization is complete
and the SM1684 is OFF (default, indicating when one goes down, all the servos are OFF), the initialization
complete flags SM1681 & SM1683 will be cleared to OFF and related actions on other slaves will also be paused.
After all the troubles are cleared, you need to initialize every slave to restart the operation. PLC will turn the error
LED off after PLC confirms the initialization is complete. This error will be recorded in the error log.
_6
9. If the axes are working independently and the communication is working properly, you can set the SM1684 to ON
(indicating when one goes down, only the defective servo is OFF) to notify PLC to record the specific error on the
error log and other slaves can keep working.
10. You need to set the communication station and speed of the servos manually and then turn the servos off and then
on again to activate the new parameters.
11. This instruction should not be used in the Structured Texts programming language, or interrupt programs or FB
programs that only be called once.

Example of Communication with Delta servo ASD-A2M
1. Before using the Delta CANopen instruction, mount an AS-FCOPM card in the AS Series PLC (slot 2 only) and be
sure to select Delta Special Driver & AS Remote Mode as the working mode for the AS-FCOPM card 2 in the 6_
configuration software (HWCONFIG in ISPSoft). Set the baud rate to 125 kbps, 250 kbps, 500 kbps, or 1000 kbps.
Figure 1 Function card 2 setting
6-995
Figure 2 Working mode selection
2. Connect the AS Series PLC to an ASDA series with a CANopen communication cable as shown in the figure
below. (Switch the 120 Ω terminal resistor ON in the AS-FCOPM card to enable the terminal resistor.)
_6
3. Follow the steps below for the basic settings on the panel of the ASD-A2.
a. Set the servo parameter P2-08 to 10 to restore the factory settings.
b. Power the servo off and back on again.
c. Set P1-01 to 0001 (PR mode).
d. Set P3-01 to 0400 and the baud rate of the servo for CANopen communication to 1.0 Mbps. The baud rate must
be the same as that of the PLC.
e. Set a station address for every servo, based on the number of servos. Set P3-00 of each servo to 1, 2, and 3 in
order. You can set a maximum of eight servos.
f. Power the servo off and back on again.
g. Begin operation after the basic setting is complete.
6-996
4. Download the sample program and set M0 to ON (default: SM1686 = OFF). The instruction initializes the servos at
station addresses 1–3. When SM1681 is ON, the initialization is complete. When the servo enters CANopen mode
successfully, Co-Ld information is displayed.
Ladder diagram:
Structured Texts programming language:
5. The following list shows the settings to initialize a servo drive in the AS Series.
A. Set P2-30 (auxiliary function) to 5 to indicate that the servo does not need to store the settings in EEPROM
permanently. This can prolong the servo life span.

6_
B. Reset P6-02 (PATH#1) to 0 and P6-06 (PATH#3) to 0. This indicates that PATH#1 & #3 in PR mode are both
cleared.
C. Set P3-06 (SDI source) to 16#0100. This indicates that DI1–DI8 are controlled by the hardware, EDI9 is
controlled by the software, and EDI10–EDI14 are controlled by the hardware.
D. Reset P4-07 (SDI status controlled manually) to 0.
E. Set P2-36 (EDI9) to 16#0101. This indicates that the function of EDI9 is set to Servo ON.
F. Set P0-17 (CM1A) to 1. This indicates that the mapping parameter is the pulse command output register
CMD_O.
G. Set P0-18 (CM2A) to 64. This indicates that the mapping parameter is the pulse command register CMD_E.
H. Set P5-20–P5-35 (acceleration time) to 1. This indicates that the acceleration time is 1 ms.
I. Set P5-60–P5-75 (target speed) to 1. This indicates that the target speed is 0.1 rpm.
J. Set PDO1 to correspond to P5-07 (PR command), P0-01 (Fault code), P0-46 (state of DO point) and P4-07
(state of DI point)
6-997
K. Set PDO2 to correspond to P0-09 (CM1 state: CMD_O) and P0-10 (CM2 state: CMD_E).
L. Set PDO3 to correspond to P0-11 (CM3 state: state of current torque)
M. Available for PLC with FW V1.04.00 or later: set time for the heartbeat and the PLC scan overtime to 200ms
(default). When a communication overtime occurs, PLC will send error message (error LED flashing slowly; refer
to error code for more details) and the servo turns off automatically.
N. If SM1685 is ON, PDO3 reads self-defined parameters from servo drive P0-12 and stores the data in SR791-
SR806. You need to set up the P0-20 (CM4A) before executing. 2 SRs are reserved for every servo drive axis
and you can define their data types.
Note: PLC with firmware V1.04.10 or later supports states of current torque (PD03) and DI point (PD01). PLC with
firmware V.104.60 or later supports reading self-defined parameters (PD03)
6. Do not use the COPRW instruction (API 2807) to modify the servo parameters of the eight items A, B, F, G, J, K
and N above after initialization.
7. When you use an absolute-type servo, use the COPRW communication instruction to write 16#0100 to P3-12,
which writes the relevant absolute-type servo parameters to EEPROM at the moment the servo powers off.
8. Set the relevant DI signal configuration parameters manually or with the COPRW instruction to modify the
hardware DI signal setting of ASD-A2. Use COPRW to modify the configuration after execution of the INITC
instruction is complete and before the servo is enabled.

_6
9. When the initialization is complete, the servo is in the PR mode. Do not make any communication control on servo
P5-18.
10. For more details on the servo parameters, refer to the Delta Servo Operation manual.
Example of Communication with Delta Inverter
1. Manually set the inverter parameter P09-36 (ranging from 21 to 28), P09-37 (communication baud rate default is
1MHz) and P09-40 to standard CANopen protocol (default).
2. Manually set the source of frequency command P00-20 to 6 and source of the operation command P00-21 to 3,
and have them controlled by CANopen communication.
3. The following list shows the settings to initialize an inverter in the AS Series.
A. Set PDO mapping area: the operation frequencies, current state, and states of torque and DI point correspond
to PLC SRs.
B. Set time for the heartbeat and the PLC scan overtime to 200ms (default). When a communication overtime
6-998
occurs, PLC will send error message (error LED flashing slowly; refer to error code for more details) and the
servo turns off automatically.
4. For more details on the servo parameters, refer to the Delta Inverter Operation manual.
Example
1. When M0 changes from OFF to ON, the INITC instruction starts to initialize the inverter at station address 21, until
SM1683 is ON. When SM1683 is ON, it indicates the initialization is complete.

When you use Delta Special Driver & AS Remote mode / Delta Special Driver & CANopen DS301 and execute INITC
instruction, the refreshing time of PDO data exchange among stations 1 to 15 and 21 to 28 is shown below. For example,
when the baud rate is 1M, PDO data exchange refreshing time is 10 ms X 5 times = 50 ms.

#1: If you use Delta Special Driver & CANopen DS301 mode, you can use CANopen Builder software to edit the time to
synchronize for the slaves. But the edited time can only be greater than the time shown in the table above. If you set the
time lesser than the time shown above, the system ignores the editing and runs according to the time shown above.
#2: If you use Delta Special Driver & CANopen DS301 mode, you can use CANopen Builder software to edit the number
of synchronization times for the preset number of synchronization times in the table of DS301. For the preset number of
synchronization times, it is not editable.
When you use Delta Special Driver & AS Remote mode / Delta Special Driver & CANopen DS301 and execute
_6 COPPRW instruction (SDO communication), the communication timeout is shown below.
Communication timeout (ms)#1 100 100 200 400 500
When the mode is CANopen DS301, you can set the time of the COPRW timeout in the CANopen communication setting

2. The range of S1 is 1–8 (for servo) and 21-28 (for inverter). There will be no execution when the input value is out of
the range.
3. The range of S1 is 1–8 (for servo) and S2 is a non-zero value, the servo is enabled (Servo-ON). If S2 is 0, the servo
is disabled (Servo-OFF).
4. The range of S1 is 21–28 (for inverter). When S2 is 1, it indicates it is in inverter speed mode. When S2 is 2, it
indicates it is in inverter torque mode. When S2 is 0, it indicates it stops operating. Since control modes (speed mode
and torque mode) for inverters can be switched directly, the operation can keep going. Before switching control
modes, make sure all the inverter parameters are set.

1 = SERVO-ON
Servo 1-8
0 = SERVO-OFF
0 = stop operating

2 = Torque mode
6. Every servo (1-8) has a flag (SM1651–M1658) for displaying its state. You can read the actual servo state from the
flag. When the flag is ON, the servo is Servo-ON. When the flag is OFF, the servo is Servo-OFF.
7. Every inverter (21-28) has a flag (SM1621–M1628) for displaying its state. You can read the actual inverter state
from the flag. When the flag is ON, the inverter is ON. When the flag is OFF, the inverter is OFF.
8. SM1682 is ON if an error occurs during communication. In addition, SR658 retains the number of the axis in which
the error occurs and SR659 retains the error code.
Example 1 (Ladder diagram):
1. When M0 changes from OFF to ON, the INITC instruction starts to initialize the servos at station addresses 1–3,
until SM1681 is ON.
2. When M1 changes from OFF to ON, the ASDON instruction starts to enable the servo at station address 2. When
_6 SM1652 is ON, it indicates Servo-ON.
3. When M2 changes from OFF to ON, the ASDON instruction starts to disable the servo at station address 2. When
SM1652 is OFF, it indicates Servo-OFF.

1. When M1 changes from OFF to ON, this instruction starts to enable the servo at station address 2. When SM1652 is
ON, it indicates Servo-ON.
2. Make sure M1 and SM1652 are both ON and then set the auto return communication control right flag SM1582 to
ON for station address 2. This will free the communication control right and the station address 2 can receive and
execute other communication instructions.
3. When M2 changes from OFF to ON, this instruction starts to disable the servo at station address 2. When SM1652
is OFF, it indicates Servo-OFF.
4. Make sure M2 is ON and SM1652 is OFF and then set the auto return communication control right flag SM1582 to

indicates the initialization is complete.
2. When M2 changes from OFF to ON, this instruction starts to set the control mode at the station address 21. When
SM1621 is ON, it indicates the inverter is in operation.

Explanation
1. This instruction executes the servo relative position control for the servo at the address specified in S1. The INITC
and ASDON (servo ON) instructions must be complete before this instruction is executed.
2. The range of S1 is 1–8. There will be no execution when the input value is out of the range.
3. The range of S2 is -2147483648 to +2147483647. The +/- sign indicates the forward / reverse direction. The target
position is a relative position.
4. The unit of the value of S3 is 0.1 rpm. The range is 1–60000, which indicates 0.1–6000.0 rpm.
5. When the target position is reached, the corresponding completion flags of axes SM1631–SM1638 are ON. After the
axis starts to output, PLC clears the corresponding completion flag.
6. Refer to the following table for the corresponding SM and SR of the axes.
7. SM1682 is ON when an error occurs during communication. In addition, SR658 retains the number of the axis in
which the error occurs and SR659 retains the error code.

Example 2
1. Add one line to the program in Example 1. When the PLC runs and SM1662 is ON, the function is enabled for servo
2 to go back and forth.
2. As the figure shows below, the servo moves from its current position (20,000) to the absolute target position
(100,000) after M2 is ON. After that, it goes back and forth between the absolute position 100,000 and 0.
The direction indication flag SM1672 is ON when the servo goes toward the target position for the first time after
Servo-ON. After that, the flag repeats the state, changing from ON to OFF.
3. You can modify the target position at any time in the motion, but the new target position is only valid for the next
back and forth cycle.

Explanation
1. This instruction reads and writes CANopen communication data to the servo at the address specified in S1. The
range of S1 is 1–127. If the value is out of range (<1 or >127), the minimum or maximum value is automatically
processed by the instruction as the value of S1.
2. S2 can only specify four types of request codes, as shown in the following table. If you set the request code wrong, it
does NOT execute; SM1682 is ON and SR659 is 16#0005.

3. For S3 and S4, refer to the object dictionary in the Delta servo / inverter operation manual or the object dictionary
from a third-party device that complies with CANopen DS301.
4. You should execute the COPRW instruction only after the INITC instruction is complete in case the parameters are
overwritten by the INITC instruction. Use the COPRW instruction for CANopen SDO communication. If the station
address of a slave exceeds the range 1–8 or 21-28, you can use the COPRW instruction to set, read, and write
slave-related parameters.
When you use Delta Special Driver & AS Remote mode / Delta Special Driver & CANopen DS301 and execute
COPPRW instruction (SDO communication), the communication timeout is shown below.

6_
Communication timeout (ms)#1 100 100 200 400 500
When the mode is CANopen DS301, you can set the time of the COPRW timeout in the CANopen communication
setting option from HWCONFIG; default timeout is 100 ms.
in which the error occurs and SR659 retains the error code. Refer to DRVIC instruction for details.
Note: When you use the COPRW instruction, you must edit the process for dealing with communication errors in
order to avoid invalid communication occurring as a result of unexpected communication errors.
6. The diagram below shows the timing of the COPRW instruction.
 When you enable the COPRW instruction for the first time, the instruction sends the command code immediately
if no other CANopen communication is using it.
 The instruction sends the command code.
 The code has been sent and the finish flag is set to ON.
6-1023
 You modify the next data to be sent out. The next command code is sent out immediately after the finish flag is
set to OFF.
The code has been sent and the COPRW instruction is disabled.
7. The COPRW instruction only supports the Delta Special Driver & AS Remote Mode and CANopen DS301 in the
hardware configuration setting (HWCONFIG in ISPSoft).
_6
8. Most of the parameters in Delta ASDA-A2 are displayed in the decimal format. You can convert the parameters into
index addresses, see the example below. 0 is a fixed value for the sub index address.
Example: The index address of PX-YY=0x2000 +（X << 8）+ YY
P2-10 = 0x2000 +（0x0002 << 8）+ 0x000A = 0x220A
P5-04 = 0x2000 +（0x0005 << 8）+ 0x0004 = 0x2504
P1-44 = 0x2000 +（0x0001 << 8）+ 0x002C = 0x212C
6-1024
9. Most of the parameters in Delta inverter are also displayed in the decimal format. Use the following formula to
convert the parameters.
Example: The index address of PXX-YY=0x2000 + XX (hexadecimal);
The sub index address is YY+1 (hexadecimal)
The index address of P10-15 = 0x2000 + 0x000A = 0x200A
The sub index address is 0x0F+1= 0x10
10. Since this instruction uses SDO (Service Data Objects) and the communication mode is one transmission (one
sending/one receiving) at a time, and the communication right is shared with the high-speed output instructions.
When writing PLC programs, bear the followings in mind.
* It is suggested NOT to use 2 COPRW instructions or communication at a time in one scan cycle.
* It is suggested NOT to use this instruction in a function block. Because when this instruction is written in a function
block, there will be 2 POU in the PLC program and when the function block is called, 2 instructions will be enabled
at the same time.
11. The request codes for normal SDO are 16#0021 and 16#0041, available for PLC with firmware V1.04.80 or later.
12. When the request code is 16#0021, S5 is the data length (“n” byte) to write into the slave. S5+1~ S5+((n+1) / 2) is the
data to write into the slave. For example, if S5 is specified as D100 and the value in S5 is 16. This instruction sends
data in D101 ~ D108 to the slave in the following order, lower 8-bit in D101, upper 8-bit in D101, lower 8-bit in D102,
upper 8-bit in D102 and so forth. 6_
13. When the request code is 16#0041, when received responses from the slave, this instruction stores the data length
(“n” byte) in S5 and data in S5+1~ S5+((n+1) / 2). For example, if received 15 bytes of data length, D100 is 15 and
store the data Byte[0], Byte[1].. Byte[14] in the following order, lower 8-bit in D101, upper 8-bit in D101, lower 8-bit in
D102, upper 8-bit in D102 and so forth.
14. The maximum data length is 255 bytes. To prevent too many Normal SDO transmissions, if the data length exceeds
255 bytes, PLC only sends or receives 255 bytes.
6-1025
Example (using Expedited SDO)
until SM1681 is ON.
2. When M1 changes from OFF to ON, the PLC writes the 2-byte data (S2=16#002B) in D100 to P5-04 (S3=16#2504)
of servo 3, using the COPRW instruction. When the writing is complete, M100 is ON.
3. When M2 changes from OFF to ON, the PLC reads the value of P4-07 (S3=16#2407) of servo 3 and stores the
value( S2=16#0040) in D106. When the reading is complete, M106 is ON.

Explanation
1. S1 sets the station address within the range of 1~127. If the setting value exceeds the range (< 1 or >127), the
instruction will automatically send data at the minimum or maximum value respectively.
2. S2 is the starting source device where written data are stored and S3 is the number of messages to consecutively
write data. E.g., S2 specifies D10 as the starting device and the number of messages to consecutively write data is 3.
Here is the detailed explanation in the following table.

The value of S3 is in the range of 1~100.
6-1027
3. For the index addresses and subindex addresses of Delta servo and AC motor drive, refer to the explanation of the
COPRW instruction. In principle, the parameter values of Delta servo and AC motor drive are both16-bit or 32-bit
values including floating point numbers. If you need write an 8-bit value, use the COPRW instruction.
4. D is the communication completion flag. D will turn on after the sending of multiple communication messages is
complete.
See the detailed sending process and sequence diagram below.
 The COPWL instruction is enabled and starts to send data.
 After the COPWL instruction sends one piece of message, the next PLC instruction continues to execute.
 As the COPWL instruction is scanned once again and the prior message has been received by the slave, the
COPWL instruction sends the next message.
 When the last written-data sending is done, the instruction will set the completion flag to ON.
 When the completion flag turns on, the COPWL instruction need be disabled by manual so that the subsequent
COPWL or COPRW instruction can continue to work.
Note: When you disable the instruction, the completion flag will be automatically cleared accordingly.

2. When M1 = OFF → ON, the instruction writes a 32-bit value for P1-44 of the servo whose station address is 2 and
the written value 77777777 is stored in D52. The instruction writes a 32-bit value for P1-45 and the written value
88888888 is stored in D56. As the writing is complete, M201 turns on.

Node : Station address which is reset
Para : Setting value of the parameter

_6
Ok : The reset completion flag
Err : The reset error flag
Explanation
1. Before the RSTD instruction is used in Delta special instruction mode, make sure that all Delta drives have been
initialized via the INITC instruction and they once worked normally.
2. When used in CANopen DS301 mode, the RSTD instruction works as the NMT communication function and can
switch network states via the Para parameter.
3. Only the PLC firmware of V1.04.10 and later and the ISPSoft software of V3.03.08 and later support the
instruction.
4. When CAN communication port is specified to work in Delta special driver mode, the value of Node can be 0 (for
the broadcast function) and 1~8 which are for servo station addresses only and 21~28 for station addresses of AC
motor drives only. When the station address exceeds the range, the PLC will not perform the reset action and the
Err flag turns on. (Refer to the explanation of SR659 for error codes)
5. When CAN communication port is specified to work in CANopen DS301 mode, the value of Node is in the range of
6-1030
1~64 and 0 (for the broadcast function). When the value exceeds the range, the PLC will not perform the NMT
communication and the Err flag turns on. (Refer to the explanation of SR659 for error codes)
6. The setting value of Para is only applicable to CANopen DS301 mode. The parameter is meaningless if the
instruction is used in Delta special driver mode and AS remote mode. The settings for Para (NMT service code)
are listed in the following table. If the setting value is not one of the values in the table, the Err flag turns on.

state layer
7. The RSTD instruction can implement the command action on only one drive or slave every time. If multiple RSTD
instructions are enabled simultaneously, the PLC will automatically take priority to perform the instruction which is
enabled earlier.
8. The RSTD instruction is executed to send the command when it is enabled. If the instruction is disabled before the
Ok flag is on, the PLC will not set the Ok flag to ON.
9. Apart from notifying the specified drive to clear the error state, the instruction would also re-check if relevant
communication parameter values are correct and re-set correct communication parameter values.
For example, due to the disconnection of the slave of station address 2, the entire system stops running. After the
trouble is solved, the slave of station address 2 can return to the state of being controllable by using the RSTD
instruction to reset the slave of station address 2 only. So the time of re-initializing all drives are saved. 6_
10. If the slave responds by sending back any communication command fault to the PLC during the communication,
the RSTD instruction will turn the Err flag on and stop the upcoming actions. (Refer to explanation of SR659 for
error codes.)

Explanation
1. Make sure that all Delta drives have been initialized before executing the reset instruction.
2. Only the PLC firmware of V1.04.10 and later and the ISPSoft software of V3.03.08 and later support the
instruction.
3. The value of Node is in the range of 1~8 (exclusive to servo node IDs). If the setting value exceeds the range, the
PLC will not perform the action of the homing mode and set the Err flag to ON. (Refer to explanation of SR659 for
error codes.)
4. The ZRNM instruction can set the homing mode of only one drive every time. If multiple instructions are enabled
simultaneously, the PLC will take priority to perform the instruction which is enabled earlier.
5. The ZRNM instruction is executed to send the command when it is enabled. If the instruction is disabled or will
NOT be scanned again before the Ok flag is on, the PLC will NOT be able to set the Ok flag or Err flag to ON.
6. This instruction will only be triggered once when the EN contact is switched from OFF to ON. It is suggested to use
this instruction in the ladder programming. If using this instruction in SFC or ST programming, when the EN contact
6-1032
is OFF, it can NOT be scanned.
7. Mode sets a homing mode. If the setting value exceeds the range, the PLC will still send the command and the
server itself will decide whether to receive the command or not. The setting mode is the homing mode that ASDA
servo parameter P5-04 corresponds to.
The setting value of Delta servo homing mode is a hex value. The value is defined as the format of 0xWZYX. See

Explanation
1. The EMER instruction is applicable to CANOpen DS301 mode and Delta special mode.
2. Only the PLC firmware of V1.04.10 and later can support the instruction.
3. After receiving the Emergency message from the slave Node, the PLC will automatically store the data in the
specified storage device and set the Ok flag to ON.
4. It is recommended that the Node value should be specified from the slave node IDs which have already existed. If
the value is not one existing node ID or the slave has been disconnected, the PLC will not be able to receive any
message, set the Err flag to ON and show error code of communication timeout. (Refer to explanation of SR659
for error codes.)
6-1035
5. The way the EMER instruction reads Emergency messages is the same as Emergency communication method in
AS operation manual. Please just select one communication method from them when reading Emergency
messages.
6. The EMER instruction can read 5 Emergency messages at most. Every time the reading is successful, the Ok flag
turns on and Len displays the total number of messages which are read. You can judge how many consecutive
words are occupied by Dest based on the length. Every message uses 4 words. The data are stored in the order
from lower 8 bits to higher 8 bits. The storage format is shown as below. (E.g. Dest is D10, Len is 2 which is the

Explanation
1. For execution of this instruction, you need to use PLC FW V1.06 or later and ISPSoft V3.07 or later.
2. The INITC and ASDON (Servo-ON) instructions must be complete before this instruction is executed.
3. Xno can only specify X0.0, X0.2, X0.4, X0.6, X0.8 and X0.10 as the input points, and the operand occupies two
consecutive input points. You cannot execute the instruction if the input points are the points specified for Xno
above. After you select the input points, the high-speed counter is automatically specified. If there is a DCNT
instruction (API 1004) or CSFO instruction (API 2708) with the same high-speed counter in the program, the PLC
first executes the instruction that starts the counter first. The input points and corresponding high-speed counters
are shown in the following table.

4. If the high-speed counters for the instruction can use only the phase A/B input mode, set the flag for reversing the
input direction to ON when MPG is connected but has not rotated yet, and the PLC input point is ON. Set the
function to detect the state of PLC run cycle to OFF.
5. InCnt is the number of input pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter.
6. InSpd is the frequency of input pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter with the unit of 1 Hz.
7. Gear is the proportion of the input frequency and output frequency (floating-point value). The formula is that output
frequency equals to the result of input frequency multiplying Gear. For instance, if Gear is 2.5 and the input
frequency is 50, the output is 125 (50*2.5). Note: the output count and the output frequency are rounded down to
the nearest whole digit when outputting.
8. Axis is the station address of Delta servo for output, ranging from 1 to 8 and it should be within the station address
that is initiated by the INITC instruction.
9. OutCnt is the number of output pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter with the unit of PUU.
10. OutSpd is the frequency of the output pulses. Use a 32-bit variable to declare the parameter with the unit of 1 Hz.
6-1038
11. There is no limit to the number of times you can use this instruction. Several instructions can use one group of
input points as its source of input count. But you need to clear the value in the input counter before execution of
this instruction; especially when you are using one input and several outputs. And this instruction executes
according to the axis number to record information about its input and output. The same axis can be used for
several times but you must not output the same axis at the same time. If you use the same axis to output for
several times, PLC outputs the first starting one and then the second one.
only once.
Note
1. The PLC calculates the input pulse frequency based on the input pulse width (ON) in the positive half cycle. If the
proportion of the pulse width for ON:pulse width for OFF is not 1:1, the PLC takes the ON width as the standard for
conversion by default.
2. The input pulse=ON means the input point LED is on. When using the MPG but it has not rotated yet, you can check
if the input point LED is OFF and the flag for reversing the input direction is activated .
3. There is a 20 ms time difference in CANopen communication when executing this instruction. If this worries you, use
CSFO instruction instead, controlling the servo by the pulse output.
Example
6_
 When M0 switches from OFF to ON, PLC starts to execute this instruction to initialize servo station address 1 and
2 until SM1681 is ON.
 When M1 switches from OFF to ON, PLC starts to execute this instruction to start servo station address 1 and
when the servo is started, SM1651 is ON, meaning Servo-ON.
 When M2 switches from OFF to ON, PLC starts to execute this instruction to start servo station address 1 and
when the servo is started, SM1652 is ON, meaning Servo-ON.
 When M3 switches from OFF to ON, input points X0.0 and X0.1 connect to the MPG to control 2 servos. The
proportions for the 1st servo is 1 and for the 2nd servo is 2.

the servo
Done ： Downloading complete flag
Explanation
2. Slave is where you store the downloaded E-CAM chart; the supported slave station ranges from 1 to 8. After the
downloading is complete, the DONE flag is ON. If the slave station number you are using is out of the supported
range, the instruction is NOT executed. And the Err (error) flag is ON.
6-1041
3. Source is where you specify from which E-CAM chart to start downloading; the supported E-CAM chart length is
from 1 to 16. If the E-CAM chart number you are using is out of the supported length, the instruction is NOT
executed. And the Err (error) flag is ON. You can also use the PLC data register number to specify from which E-
CAM chart to start downloading to the servo and it takes Len+1 as its downloading length. After the setting is done,
the system starts to read from the specified data register number (device number) to a length of Len +1 (32-bit)
consecutively to the servo. If the Source is D10 and the Len is 10, the system starts to read from D10 to a length of
10+1, starting from D10/D11, D12/D13 to D30/D31 to the servo.
4. Len is the E-CAM chart length for downloading; its setting range is from 1 to 720. If the length you are using is out of
the supported range, the instruction is NOT executed. And the Err (error) flag is ON. The servo supports up to 800; if
the Len+1 exceeds 800, PLC stops downloading and the Err (error) flag is ON.
5. CAddr is the starting address where to store the E-CAM chart in the servo; the supported setting range is from 0 to
798. If the starting address you are using is out of the supported range, the instruction is NOT executed. And the Err
(error) flag is ON.
6. If the supported 16 E-CAM charts are not sufficient, you can choose to download the E-CAM charts to the PLC file
register while editing in the E-CAM Editor.
7. You can make use of the 1st ~ 800th storage in the servo. When creating E-CAM charts with not so many points (less
than 800), you can download the E-CAM charts altogether at one time to save communication time. For example, if
you use points 1-200 in chart A and 201-400 in chart B, the points in chart A plus the points in chart B are 400 (less
_6
than 800), you can download these two charts at one go.
8. Once executing this instruction, it clears the Done flag first and then sends the E-CAM chart. Once the transmission
is complete, the Done flag is ON. If any error occurs from the slaves, the Err (error) flag is ON. If you need to resend
the E-CAM chart, you need to wait for one scan time before executing this instruction again.
9. If the Err (error) flag is ON, refer to the definitions below.

2. This instruction is for setting up the E-CAM related parameters for the first time or setting up the E-CAM chart before
the first engagement. If you need to modify the E-CAM chart during engaging, you need to use instruction ECAMC
(API2816) instead.
3. Slave is the servo slave station, ranging from 1 to 8. If the slave station number you are using is out of the supported

14. CaPuu is where you set the number of pulses for E-CAM to wait before disengaging. The value in CaPuu should be
32-bit and ranges from -1073741824 to +1073741823. When the value exceeds the upper or lower limit, it will be
seen as the maximum vlaue or the minimum value. When the value is 0, it means no waiting before disengaging.
PLC sets the servo parameter P5-89.
15. CwPuu is where you set the number of pulses for E-CAM to wait before engaging again. The value in CwPuu
should be 32-bit and ranges from -2147483648 to +2147483647. When the value is 0, it means no waiting before
engaging again. PLC sets the servo parameter P5-92.
6-1046
16. ORate is where you set the output ratio for the E-CAM chart. The value in ORate should be a 32-bit integer and
ranges from -2147000000 to +2147000000. When the value exceeds the upper or lower limit, it will be seen as the
maximum vlaue or the minimum value. PLC sets the servo parameter P5-19. For example, set ORate to 123000 and
123000 will be divided by 1000000 by the servo. And you will have 0.123 as the output ratio. Set ORate to 1500000
and 1500000 will be divided by 1000000 by the servo. And you will have 1.5 as the output ratio.
17. Once executing this instruction, it clears the Done flag first and then sends a request of setting E-CAM parameters.
If the transmission works correctly, the DONE flag is ON. If any error occurs from the slaves, the Err (error) flag is
ON. If you need to modify the E-CAM parameters, you need to wait for one scan time before executing this
instruction again.

You need to set parameter P11-36 (speed limit selection) to 0 and when parameter
P11-36 is set to 0, the speed limit is determined by the settings in P11-37 and P11-38.
7. CurTQ: current torque value; unit: 0.1%; the value here is the same as the value shown in its corresponding SR.
Refer to API 2803 DRVIC instruction for more details on the corresponding SR.
8. Reach is the result of the comparison between CurTQ and TarTQ, shown in 0.1% as its unit. When CurTQ >=
TarTQ, the Reach flag is ON. When CurTQ < (TarTQ – 5), the Reach flag is OFF. The delay response value is 5.
6-1054
9. If the nodes of the drives respond with error messages or do not respond, PLC will set Err flag to ON. For more
details on error codes, refer to SR658 and SR659 from API 2803 DRVIC instruction.
10. Since the values in the command of torque and speed may vary. It is suggested to check the manuals of Delta

6.27.3 Frequently asked questions in Delta special CANopen

communication and Troubleshooting
Question 1: After the PLC starts the INITC instruction, the initialization completion flag SM1681 is not set to ON.
Steps:
1) Make sure that Card 2 is set to AS-FCOPM communication card in AS HWCONFIG and the communication
mode is Delta special driver mode. Then check if the communication rate is the specified baud rate. After
above settings are correct, re-download the hardware configuration table and then re-check if the initialization
works. If the initialization still does not work, proceed with the next step.
2) Ensure that the servo initialization has been set by manual. Then re-power the servo on after power off. After
doing so, continue with step 3.
3) Ensure that the servo node ID (P3-00), baud rate and mode (P3-01) have been set by manual and
communication mode (P1-01) has been set to PR mode by manual. Then proceed with the step 4.
4) Ensure that the CAN communication cable connection is proper, the terminal resistor in AS-FCOPM card of
the PLC is switched on and the last servo has been connected with a terminal resistor. Then move forward to
the step 5.
5) Observe whether the word: code appears temporarily on the digital display of the servo when the PLC
enables the initialization instruction. If there is no code appearing temporarily, return to step 1 or replace the
servo. If there is the word code appearing temporarily, go to step 6.

6) Check if the actual states of DI0~DI7 (P2-10 ~ P2-17) of the servo are consistent with the function settings of
servo parameters. E.g. DI0 is the negative limit input (contact A). Check if the actual input state has been OFF
_6 (Contact B). If DI function has been enabled, make the function disabled. If the function has not been enabled,
go on with step7.
7) The communication mode of the communication card AS-FCOMP in HWCONFIG is switched back to DS301
mode. Use the CANopen Builder software to search the slave and observe which slave has not been

7.1 Troubleshooting
7.1.1 Basic troubleshooting steps
This chapter includes the possible errors the can occur during operation, their causes, and corrective actions.
(1) Check the following:
 The PLC should be operated in a safe environment (consider environmental, electronic, and vibration safeties).
 Connect power supply correctly to the PLC.
 Secure the module, terminal, and cable installations.
 All LED indicators show correctly.
 Set all switches correctly.
(2) Check the following operational functions:
 Switch the RUN/STOP state
 Check the settings for the AS Series to RUN/STOP
 Check and eliminate errors from external devices
 Use the System Log function in ISPSoft to check system operation and logs
(3) Identify possible causes:
 AS Series or external device
 CPU or extension modules
 Parameters or program settings
7.1.2 Clear the Error States

Use the following methods to clear the error states. If the error source is not corrected, the system continues to show errors.
(1) Switch the CPU model state to STOP and then to RUN.
(2) Turn off the CPU and turn it on again.

7.1.4 System Log and Positions of the Error Step

If ISPSoft is connected to an AS Series, you can view actions and errors in the AS Series by clicking System Log on the
PLC menu. The CPU can store up to 20 error log sets. After the 20 sets are stored, the 1st log is replaced with the 21st if
there are new logs coming in, and the old logs are replaced with the new ones sequentially. When the memory card is
installed in the CPU module, 20 sets of the old logs are backed up in the memory card and up to 1000 logs can be recorded.
If the stored logs exceed 1000, the oldest 20 logs are replaced with the newest 20 logs in the memory card.
(1) On the PLC menu, click System Log.
(2) The System Log window appears. Click Clear Log to clear the error log in the window and the error log in the CPU
module, and reset the CPU module.
7_
 Group No.: The number 1 indicates that the error occurred in the CPU module or the right-side module 1. The
numbers 2–16 indicate the error occurred in the remote modules 1–15.
 Module No.: The number 0 indicates that the error occurred in the CPU module or the remote module. The
numbers 1–32 indicate the error occurred in the right-side module of the CPU module / remote
module. The number 1 represents the closest module to the CPU module or the remote module. This
number increases from the closest to the furthest from the CPU module or the remote module. Note:
up to eight extension modules can be connected to the right-side of the remote module.
 PLC/Module name: Model names of the CPU, remote, and extension modules.
7-5
 Error Code: Error codes in the error log.
 Date & Time: The date and time the error occurred. The most recently occurring error is listed on the top.
 The last column shows the descriptions for the error.
(3) If the operation or operand exceeds the allowed range (SM0 = ON, stored in SR0) or an instruction inspection
error (SM5 = ON, stored in SR4) occurs, you can use the following method to see where the problem is.
 When SM0 = ON, check the value in SR1 to see the error step. SR1: The address of the operation error (32-bit).
 When SM5 = ON, check the value in SR5 to see the error step. SR5: The address of the grammar check error
(32-bit).
 Once you know the error step number, you can go to ISPSoft -> Edit -> Step positioning. Enter the error step
number and click OK. The system takes you to the position where the step went wrong.

7.3 Troubleshooting for Other I/O Modules

 Introduction to troubleshotting modules
Digital I/O, analog I/O, temperature measurement, positioning, high-speed counter, load cell, and network modules
can be installed in an AS Series system. There are 2 types of error codes; error and warning. The CPU module
and its modules stop operating when errors occur. The CPU modules and its modules do not stop operating when
warnings are triggered.

There are five types of error indicator states for of the CPU module errors,
including LED indicator ON, OFF, blinking fast, blinking normally, and blinking
slowly. When the LED indicator is ON, blinking fast/normally, clear the problems
first in order to run the CPU module. When the LED indicator is blinking slowly,
indicating a warning type of error codes, it does not require immediate action.
Clear the problems when the module is powered off.
Error type:
ON: A serious error occurs in the module.
CPU Error LED Blinking fast (every 0.2 seconds): unstable power supply or hardware
Failure.
Blinking normally (every 0.5 second): system program errors or system

Warning type: 7_
Blinking slowly (every one second and off for three seconds): a warning is
triggered, but the system can still run.
OFF: a warning is triggered, but the system can still run. You can modify the rules
of how a warning is triggered, or use the SM/SR to show the warnings.
