The address format varies, depending on the file type. This is explained in
the following sections, beginning with file 2, the status file, and following
with files 0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Data File 2 – Status
The status file is explained in chapter 27. You can address various bits and
words as follows:
Format Explanation
S Status file
: Element delimiter
S:e/b e Element
number Ranges from 0 to 15 in a SLC 5/01 or fixed controller, 0-32
in a SLC 5/02. These are 1-word elements. 16 bits per
element.
/ Bit delimiter
b Bit number Bit location within the element. Ranges from 0 to 15.
Examples:
S:1/15 Element 1, bit 15. This is the “first pass” bit, which you can use to
initialize instructions in your program.
S:3 Element 3. The lower byte of this element is the current scan time.
The upper byte is the watchdog scan time.
