Terminal Bus Analysis in PLC-Program

To analyze the terminal bus (K-Bus) the programmer can access the registers described in the architecture. The
access to the PLC-program is realized via TwinCAT. The registers are described in the architecture of the terminal
bus connectors (CX1100-000x.
For analysis four signals / variables are used:

BusState (describes the state of the bus: 0 -> no error, 1 -> bus error)

ErrorCode (same error code as the LED blink code)

ErrorArg (same argument code LED blink code)

Request[0] (output to request error codes / reset bus)


In the PLC program some external variables must be defined:
VAR

k_bus_request AT %QX0.0 : BOOL;

k_bus_err_code AT %IB0

: USINT;

k_bus_err_arg AT %IB1

: USINT;

k_bus_state AT %IB2

: USINT;

END_VAR

In the PLC program the analysis can be done as follows: (this is only pseudo code)
....

IF k_bus_state = 1 THEN

(* an error occured on K-Bus*)

k_bus_request := TRUE;

(* request vaules for ErrCode and ErrArg *)

CASE k_bus_err_code OF

0 : return;

(* should not happen, though an error occured *)

1 : CASE k_bus_arg OF

0 : report error;

(* EEPROM checksum error *)

1 : report error;

(* overflow in code buffer *)

2 : report error;

(* unknown datatype *)

END_CASE;

2 : CASE k_bus_arg OF

0 : report error;

(* programmed configuration, wrong table entry *)

ELSE report error;

(* wrong table entry *)

END_CASE;

3 : report error

(* K-Bus command error *)

4 : CASE k_bus_arg OF

0 : report error;

(* break after power supply *)

ELSE report error;

(* break after terminal 'k_bus_arg' *)

END_CASE;

5 : report error

(* K-Bus-error during register-communication with

terminal

'k_bus_arg'

*)

9 : CASE k_bus_arg OF

0 : report error; (* checksum error in program flash *)

ELSE report error;

(* terminal 'k_bus_arg' does not exist in boot

configuration

*)
