MSG_WRITE_W_HANDLER

B-109

Handles a PLC-5 programmable-controller generated
message-write instruction.

C Syntax

#include <copro.h>

unsigned MSG_WRITE_W_HANDLER (variable,buff_size,msg_num,

items,timeout,cc_type,plc_type,iostat)

short *variable;
unsigned buff_size;
unsigned msg_num;
unsigned items;
unsigned timeout;
unsigned cc_type;
unsigned plc_type;

int *iostat;

Parameters

variable

Address of a buffer that stores the write data.

buff_size

Size of the write buffer in bytes.

msg_num

Number of the PLC-5 programmable-controller message (0-31).

items

Number of data items to be written by the PLC-5 programmable
controller. The number and size of the items cannot be greater than
234 bytes—e.g., maximum of 58 floating-point values of 4 bytes each
are

<

234 bytes.

timeout

Timeout value in seconds. A value of CC_FOREVER (defined in
COPRO.H) will not return until the message has been processed.
