S: State data

OEM-MMC: LinkItem /Nck/State/...

During NC operation different internal states occur and system-specific data may change during operation. To

distinguish those from system variables, they are classified as state data.

A distinction is made between:

- NCK-specific state data

- Mode-group-specific state data

- Channel-specific state data

- Drive-specific state data (FDD)

- Drive-specific state data (MSD)

aDbb (N, S)

$A_DBB[x] x = ByteNo

PLC data byte

The variable is used to read and write a data byte (8 bits) from the PLC. The byte is unsigned and can be read and written in the

range from 0 to 255.

A memory area is reserved in the communications buffer of these modules (DPR) for high-speed information exchange bet-

ween PLC and NC. The PLC uses function calls (FC) and the NCK uses $ variables to access this memory.

anCollStateCond (N, S)

$AN_COLL_STATE_COND[i]

Activation conditions of a protection area

The system variable indicates if a protection area can currently be part of the collision monitoring.

The individual conditions which have to be fulfilled so that a protection area can actively prevent collisions are also shown.

The variable is coded as follows:

Bit 0: The protection area is monitored (this bit has the same significance as the system variable $AN_COLL_STATE).

Bit 1: The protection area is included in the internally mapped model.

Bit 2: The protection area has the status 'P' (PLC-controlled).

Bit 3: The protection area has the status 'A' (active).

Bit 4: All axes which can move the protection area are referenced.

Bit 5: Indicates whether a PLC bit is assigned to the protection area.

Bit 6: Status of the interface bit assigned to the SB.

An active protection area (bit 0 = TRUE) only then enters real collision monitoring when it is part of at least one collision pair

($NP_COLL_PAIR). The other partner must also be an active protection area.

assigned to the protection area is set.

2. The protection area group ("Machine", "TOOL" etc.) has been activated in the current operating mode via the associated

Number of link variable changes per cycle

Number of link variable changes per cycle from the current to the specified NCU number.

The index NCU number of the variable $AN_LINK_CONN_SDN[ NCU-No] currently ranges from 1 to 16. The variable returns the

number of bytes reserved

from the current NCU-Curr to the NCU-No in order to exchange any non-cyclic messages. Depending on the utilization of this

transmission capacity,

SIEMENS can supply new SDB blocks for the CBE-30 which reduce the total transmission capacity from NCU-Curr to NCU-No.

This makes the link faster and thus the servo cycle shorter. Note: If NCU-Curr == NCU-No, the variable returns "0".

axisActivInNcu (N, S)

Display of active axis

Display indicating whether the axis is active, i.e. whether it can be traversed via a channel

of its own NCU or via another NCU (link axis).

This data can be utilized by HMIs in order to suppress the display of any non-active axes.

Return value

Bits 0-31 stand for the axes of the NCU.

driveType (N, S)

Digital drive type

Digital drive type. Coded according

to machine data 13040, but additional code.

Note:

As long as the OPI variable contains the identifier 0x100 "Drive type unknown" after an NCK ramp-up,

the information is not yet consistent and must not be evaluated.

As soon as the identifier 0x100 is deleted, in NCU systems with SIMODRIVE 611D drives

it can be assumed that the content can only change after renewed link to the NCK.

(e.g. after modification of the drive modules), i.e. it need not be cyclically checked for change.

Return value

0x100: Drive type unknown.

0x200: This identifier is entered in addition to the code according to the machine data 13040

if a 611D-Performance2 module is detected.

For other codes, see MD 13040.

nckMode (N, S)

Mode in which the NCK works

Mode in which the NCK works.

The mode can be set with the PI _N_NCKMOD.

Return value

Bit0: NCK works accelerated in simulation mode/DRY_RUN.

This mode is currently provided only for the VNCK.

Bit1: NCK is slowed down to give the simulation more computing time on the same processor.

NC start not possible.

Bit2: PowerOn-Init_Finish; power-up initialization finished.

Meaning:

State = 1

All channels of the NCK have been powered up and

have interpreted the DEF files.

Thus the HMI may receive consistent data from the NCK.

Example of a call from HMI to NCK:

What macros are available?

What GUDs are available?

Note: With Init-Finish==1, the POWER-ON Progevent has NOT yet been run.

State = 0

Power up has not yet been finished, or initialization

could not been executed due to a fatal alarm

Bit3: PowerOn-Ready ; power-up finished

Meaning:

State == 1

NCK has finished initialization, AND the POWER-ON Progevent has been executed.

OR the POWER-ON Progevent could not be executed due to an alarm.

Note: The next RESET will "catch up" on the POWER-ON Progevent.

This will no longer influence PowerOn-Ready.

Without PowerOn Progevent bit 3 and bit 2 are the same.

Bit4: NCK works accelerated in simulation mode.

This mode is not currently provided for the VNCK.

protocTrigOperation (N, S)

Logging: Trigger operation

Logging:

There are two start trigger variables. Each of these two variables is monitored using $$protocTrigType.

The result from each of these monitoring actions is: Trigger: yes/no

Since there are two variables, there are also two results, which can now be combined with a

logic operator. This operator is specified with this variable

Return value

0: No logic operation, only the first variable is to be taken into consideration

1: NOT (unary, the result of the first variable is negated, no second variable

2: AND (the result of the first variable is combined with the result of the second variable with

logic AND

3: OR (the result of the first variable is combined with the result of the second variable with logic

OR

4: XOR (the result of the first variable is combined with the result of the second variable with

logic XOR
