Select Before Operate Control of Virtual Selector Switches
The state of each virtual selector switch can be controlled at the HMI through Screens 2.1.1 and 2.1.2.
Control is also possible through the ASCII command interface by using the select-before-operate
commands CS-x43 (control select-virtual switch) and CO-x43 (operate select-virtual switch). A state
change takes place immediately without having to execute an Exit - Save settings command.
CS/CO-x43 Command
Purpose:
Select and operate the virtual selector switches.
Syntax: CS/CO-<x>43[=<Action>]
Comments: x = no entry for 43 or 1 for 143. Action = 0 to open the switch, 1 to close the switch, P to
pulse the switch to the opposite state for 200 milliseconds and then automatically return
to starting state.
The virtual switch control commands require the use of select-before-operate logic. First, the command
must be selected using the CS-x43 command. After the select command is entered, there is a 30 second
window during which the CO-x43 control command will be accepted. The control selected and the
operation selected must match exactly or the operate command will be blocked. If the operate command
is blocked, an error message is output.
