6 DATA COMMUNICATION USING THE NON PROCEDURE PROTOCOL
6.2.4 How to detect transmission errors
This section explains how to detect errors that may occur when sending data to the external device.
The following items are considered as the primary causes of errors that may occur during data transmission.
Cause of reception error | Reference section | |
A timeout occurred for the transmission monitoring time (timer 2) | User's Manual | Section 6.3 |
| (Application) |
|
Designated number of transmission data was larger than the size that could be stored in the
transmission area
Section 6.2.2
(1)Confirmation using the sequence program
(a)Detecting a transmission error
1)The following device and input signal turn ON.
•OUTPUT instruction complete device + 1
•ERR LED ON signal (XE/XF)
2)The transmission error code can be checked using the OUTPUT instruction control data ((S1) + 1).
Or, it can be checked by reading the data transmission result storage area in the buffer memory (addresses 257H/267H).
For details on how to check the error code contents and corrective actions, see Chapter 10.
(b)How to turn off the ERR LED and clear the error code (see Section 10.1.2)
1)To turn off only the ERR LED, write a "1" to the LED OFF request area (addresses 0H/1H) in the buffer memory.
2)To turn off the ERR LED and clear the error code, turn ON the ERR LED
OFF request output signal (YE/YF).
(Example) To perform the ERR LED OFF and the error code clear on the CH1 side
