The writing values of this Tag used to select the type of control to send are 67: Performs the triggering of the control indicated in Vn, 68: Performs a shut down of the control indicated in Vn, 69: Select a control for manual indicated in Vn, or 70: Select a control for automatic indicated in Vn. Use a Vn:RESPONSE Tag to check whether the processing of the telecommand was completed successfully or failed

Write-only

Vn:RESPONSE

A read-only Tag used to monitor the result of the last telecommand sent to the controller number indicated by Vn. In case of success, this Tag returns a 32-bit integer, with the upper bits set to 0 (zero) and the lower bits containing the value written by the Vn:COMMAND Tag. In case of failure, this Tag returns a 32-bit integer, with the upper bits containing the Control Panel error and the lower bits containing the value written by the Vn:COMMAND Tag

Usage Example

Writing a telecommand for the CT850 Control Panel with identifier equal to 1 (one, CT850), Remote Station equal to 3 (three, R3), Type of Remote Station equal to 2 (two, T2), and to trigger control 5 (five, V5):

Tag.ParamDevice: 1:CT850:R3:T2

Tag.ParamItem: V5:COMMAND

Writing value of this Tag: 67 (control triggering)

 

Return of this telecommand:

Tag.ParamDevice: 1:CT850:R3:T2

Tag.ParamItem: V5:RESPONSE

Reading value of this Tag in case of success: 67, that is, a 32-bit integer 0x00000043, with the upper bits equal to 0 (zero) and the lower bits equal to 67

Reading value of this Tag in case of failure: 3407939, that is, a 32-bit integer 0x00340043, with the upper bits equal to 52 and the lower bits equal to 67, in which the upper bits receive the error code 0x0034 from the Control Panel
