On the left of the table, the instruction signatures of the master are listed according
to their function. On the right of the table, the corresponding normal responses (AK
Normal) and error codes (AK Error) transmitted by the slave are listed.
1) The master transmits an instruction to the slave and repeats that instruction
until it receives a response from the slave.
2) The slave keeps transmitting the response to the instruction until the master
transmits a new instruction.
3) The master marks the end of the first instruction cycle by setting AK to zero.
Only after that, a new instruction/response cycle may be started.
The PWE represents the data element to be transmitted.
If a byte is to be transmitted, that byte has to be in position 8 of the parameter
channel.
Integers are transmitted with bytes 7 and 8. Double integer and float values are
transmitted with bytes 5 … 8.
In the event of a transmission error (AK response signature = 7), the slave trans-
mits an error code in byte positions 7 and 8 (data type: INT16).
