Example 2:

In the next example, the PLC is shut down when any fault occurs on an I/O module except when the fault occurs on modules in rack 0, slot 9 and in rack 1, slot 9. If faults occur on these two modules, the system remains running. The parameter for “table type” is set up on the first sweep. The contact IO_PRES, when set, indicates that the I/O fault table contains an entry. The PLC CPU sets the normally open contact in the sweep after the fault logic places a fault in the table. If faults are placed in the table in two consecutive sweeps, the normally open contact is set for two consecutive sweeps.

The example uses a parameter block located at %R0600. After the SVCREQ function executes, the fourth, fifth, and sixth words of the parameter block contain the address of the I/O module that faulted:

1			%R0600
long/short			%R0601
	reference address		%R0602
rack number		slot number	%R0603
I/O bus no.		bus address	%R0604
point address			%R0605
	fault data

In the program, the EQ_INT blocks compare the rack/slot address in the table to hexadecimal constants. The internal coil %M0007 is turned on when the rack/slot where the fault occurred meets the criteria specified above. If %M0007 is on, its normally closed contact is off, preventing the shutdown. Conversely, if %M0007 is off because the fault occurred on a different module, the normally closed contact is on and the shutdown occurs.
