Message Procedure Commands

The 1775–KA module has its own command language that you can use in
programming message procedures. This chapter describes the available
commands and gives some examples on how to use them. Table 6.A
summarizes the commands.

Table 6.A

Message Procedure Commands

the source to the destination

CREATE

C@<system symbol><logical address>

Create a symbolic address and equate it to a logical address.

DELETE

Delete a symbolic address or an entire message procedure

from PLC-3 memory.

this statement in the procedure.

STOP

S

PLC-3 ladder diagram program.

Each command can be abbreviated to the letters shown in the format
column of Table 6.A. In general, it is best to abbreviate a command to the
shortest possible form. This not only makes the commands easier to
program, but it also saves memory space and reduces execution time.
