Prefix Area Code

E0_ A0
E1_ A1


In the FINS/UDP protocol, the Starting Address is encoded as a 16-bit value with the

most-significant byte first.
Example

Find the FINS/UDP encoding for the RMC address %MD56.0.
By using the conversion tool in the FINS Addressing topic, we find that %MD56.0 is

represented by FINS Address D28672. Notice that the Low Address listed there as

well (D01536) can be ignored when using FINS/UDP in this manner. It is necessary

only when using PLCs that prevent the user from entering high addresses.
We separate the FINS Address into its prefix (D) and starting address (28672). By

using the prefix chart above, converting the starting address to hexadecimal

(0x7000) and appending the 00 bit address byte, we get the following FINS/UDP

encoding of our address:

82 70 00 00

FINS Response Codes
The response packet holds a two-byte Response Code field, indicating to the client

whether the transaction was successful or not. The RMC uses the following response

codes:

Response

Code

Description

00 00

Success.

04 01

Undefined Command. The 2-byte Command

field did not match a command supported by

the controller.

10 01

Packet Too Long. There were more bytes in

the packet than expected for the command

type.

10 02

Packet Too Short. There were fewer bytes

in the packet than expected for the command

type.

10 03

Bad Data Length. The amount of data in a

write request did not match the Write Length

field in the packet header.

11 01

Invalid Address Area Code. The Area Code

(first byte in the FINS Address field) is not a

valid value.

11 02

Size Error. Either the 4th byte in the FINS

Address field is non-zero, or the Read Length

or Write Length field is greater than 512.

11 03

Bad Starting Address. The 2-byte starting

address is greater than 0x7FFF.

11 04

Bad Ending Address. The 2-byte starting

address plus the read or write length exceeds

0x8000. A single read or write cannot cross

over memory areas.
