2. Write settings

You can write setting of Adtronic Electric Bulletin by using write commands.

Bit write

Bit write and word write have the same setting parameters except output value(0 or 1).

Word write

Word write setting parameters are as follows:

1) PORT :  Port no. (0 ~ 255)

2) STATION :  Don't care.

3) ADDRESS : SET, SET2, SET3 command : 0 ~ 9 - room number.

                    other command :  Don't care.

4) EXTRA 1 :  Write command = DEL, E_DEL, FORM, OFF, ON, BRIGHT, SET, SET2, SET3, EVENT . (Refer to <Table 1>)

5) EXTRA 2 : FORM command : 1 ~ 2 column setting.

                  other command :  Don't care.

<Table 1> is a description of write commands and write values of Adtronic Electric Bulletin communication driver.

<Table 2> is Input method of setting text and attribute of Adtronic Electric Bulletin communication driver.

Write example 1)

PORT:0,  station:0, ADDRESS:0000, Extra1:DEL, Extra : 0

The setting parameter shown above is an example of word write for delete all room data of Adtronic Electric Bulletin connected with 0 port.

Write example 1)

PORT:0,  station:0, ADDRESS:0000, Extra1:OFF, Extra : 0

The setting parameter shown above is an example of word write for bulletin on of Adtronic Electric Bulletin connected with 0 port.

example of setting text and attribute of  1 column equipment by script)  (when comm port no. = 0)

uint    handle;

byte    att[260];

int       length;

handle = @FileOpen("C:\\temp\\text_000.ini", "w");
if(handle != 0) {
   @FileWrite(handle, $ST_0000, -1);
   @FileClose(handle);
}

att[0] = 0;
att[1] = 10;
att[2] = 0;
att[3] = 0;
att[4] = 0x00;
att[5] = 0x00;
handle = @FileOpen("C:\\temp\\att_000.ini", "w");
if(handle != 0) {
   for(i = 0; i < 6; i = i+1) {
      @sprintf(str, "%d,", att[i]);
      @FileWrite(handle, str, -1);
   }
   @FileClose(handle);
}

@sprintf($DO_0000.extra1, "SET");
$DO_0000 = 1;

Block write

Block write comes to be executed by ‘PlcScanWriteBlock’ script function.

Available script variables are char, string for DATA, DATA2 command and byte for ATT, ATT2 command.

You can use DATA, DATA2, ATT, ATT2, SET, SET2, SET3, EVENT commands. (Refer to <Table 2>)

Script name and format: @PlcScanWriteBlock(int port, int station, int address, string extra1, string extra2, object array_value, int array_size);

   Scripting example )

If you want to set by setting text and attribute of  1 column equipment by DATA, ATT, SET command .

byte    att[260];

char    str[256];

int       length;

@sprintf(str, "%s", $ST_0000);
length = @strlen(str);
@PlcScanWriteBlock(0, 0, 0, "DATA", 0, str, length);

att[0] = 0;
att[1] = 10;
att[2] = 0;
att[3] = 0;
att[4] = 0x00;
@PlcScanWriteBlock(0, 0, 0, "att", 0, att, 5);
@PlcScanWriteBlock(0, 0, 0, "set", 0, att, 5);

<Table 3> is a description of block write commands and write values ofAdtronic Electric Bulletin  communication driver.

Important) Block write is available only  'char or string' variable(script data type) unit when DATA, DATA2 block.

Also  ATT, ATT2 block write  use 'byte' variable(script data type) unit.

Also Block write is supported 10.1.4.3 version or higher.
