4.1 System diagnosis Commands – ID, IV, IS
Use these commands to get type, firmware version or device status of System MCS-64.
These commands are sent without parameters.
ID
Request of device identity
[ 2900sub08 ]
Master (PC / PLC) sends Devices responds
ID D:8813
The response to this request gives the actual identity of the active device. This is particularly
useful when trying to identify different device types on a bus.
IV
Request of firmware version
[ 2900sub09 ]
Master (PC / PLC) sends Device responds
IV V:0124
The response to this request gives the firmware version of the active device.
IS
Request device status
[ 2900sub0A ]
Master (PC / PLC) sends Device responds
IS S:240000 (example)
The response to this request comprises of two 3-digit decimal values, which can be
decoded according to the table below:
Leftmost 3-digit value: Rightmost 3-digit value:
1 Signal stable 1 (not used)
2 Zero action performed 2 (not used)
4 Tare active 4 (not used)
8 (not used) 4 (not used)
16 Setpoint 0 active 4 (not used)
32 Setpoint 1 active 4 (not used)
64 Setpoint 2 active 4 (not used)
128 Setpoint 3 active 4 (not used)
The example decodes the result S:067000 as follows:
Signal stable (no-motion): 1
Zero action: 2
Setpoint 2 active: 64
Total 67
Note:
the bits that are not used are set to zero.
