Command entry in the PLC-Browser

Basically the PLC-Browser makes available the 3S standard commands hard-coded in
the run-time system. It is concerned with functions for direct memory manipulation,
for the output of project- and status functions as well as for run-time monitoring.
They are described in the browser's ini-file, which is an integral part of the Target
Support Package. These standard commands can be further supplemented by
specialized ones, e.g. self-diagnostic functions or other status messages of the control
application. The expansion of the command list must be carried out both in the
customer interface in the run-time system as well as through additional entries in the
Browser ini-file.

When opening the project the command list available in the PLC-Browser is generated
based on the entries in the Browser ini-file. It can be accessed as input help using the
... key in the dialog „Insert standard command" or using <F2>. Also the command
'Insert' 'Standard commands' can be used to get the command list. A command can be

typed in manually to the command line or it can be selected from the list by a double-
click on the appropriate entry.

The general command syntax is:

<KEYWORD><LEER><KEYWORD-DEPENDEND PARAMETERS>

The keyword is the command. With which parameters it can be expanded is described
in the respective tooltip in the entry help window.

The command, which has been sent, is repeated in the output data window, the
controller's response appears below it.

Example: Request for the project Id from the controller with the command "pid"

Entry in command line:

pid

Output in result window:

pid
Project-ID: 16#0025CFDA

A help text can be supplied for each standard command with ?<BLANK><KEYWORD>.

This is similarly defined in the ini-file.
