3.8.5 Command Transmission
A command transmission chart is shown below.
The Gateway R unit analyzes each request command and returns a response every time the replacement of control/status
data of all axes, which is performed constantly, is completed.
The PLC and Gateway R unit perform the following actions:
[1] Upon detecting a response command with zero set in it, the PLC application sets the necessary request command and
data.
[2] Upon detecting the change of the request command to a value other than zero, the gateway sends the request data to the
applicable axis.
[3] Upon receiving a response from the applicable axis, the gateway outputs the response result.
[4] Upon confirming the response result, the PLC application clears the request command.
[5] Upon detecting the clearing of the request command, the gateway clears the response command and waits for the next
command.
[1] to [5] are repeated if commands are used consecutively.
