You can move the STT subroutine data table file from its default location
of N90.
Important: Moving this file increases the chance of making errors while
setting up your system and complicates the technical support of the STT
subroutine because the file is not in its default location. We recommend
that you only attempt this procedure if you are experienced in ladder-logic
programming and using 6200 programming software.
The STT subroutine uses indirect addresses in block-transfer instructions.
You cannot use 6200 programming software to edit/cut/copy/paste
block-transfer instructions that use indirect addressing or to search for file
references that use indirect addressing. To move the file, follow these
steps:
A.
Use the 6200 file utilities to export the processor memory file and
comments/symbols. Make sure that you export all the different types
of comments (address, rung, instruction, etc.).
The exported program file has a .PC5 extension.
The exported comments/symbols file has a .TXT extension.
For more information about using 6200 file utilities, see PLC-5
Programming Software Programming Manual, publication 6200-6.4.7.
B.
Use an ASCII text editor to make the changes as described below.
Moving the STT Data Table File From N90
a.
Edit the .PC5 file
b. Search for all occurrences of integer file number N90 and change
to the new integer file number.
c.
Save the changes and close the file.
d. Edit the .TXT file.
e.
Search for all occurrences of integer file number N90 and change
to the new integer file number.
f.
Save the changes and close the file.
C.
Import the modified processor memory file and comments/symbols
file. Use a different name for the imported files to distinguish them
from the original files.
You are finished installing the STT subroutine. Proceed to the next chapter
for instructions on using the STT subroutine in your ladder logic.
