Reading Status |
Use a PLC Tag to read an individual Status or use a Block Tag with 57 Elements to read all Statuses of a device. For E3 or Elipse Power applications, this PLC or Block Tag is available via Tag Browser.
The next table contains a description of the parameters used in this PLC or Block Tag.
Parameters for Reading Status
N1/B1 |
Device's address or Slave ID |
N2/B2 |
0 (zero) |
N3/B3 |
0 (zero) |
N4/B4 |
Status code, only for PLC Tags. For more information, please check table Status codes |
To read an individual Status, via PLC or Block Tag, use the codes from the next table.
