Specifying the Force Table List

The format for specifying the force table consists of the keyword “FORCE”, a force
table address
and a value list. For example:

FORCE I:4 1 2 3 4

Keyword

Force Table Address

Value List

The value list contains the force on and force off information for the specified force
table address. You do not have to specify the value list.

When specifying the force table list, use the formats in table 5.X.

Table Entry:

The Example Force Table Entry

Does the Following:

FORCE Force_table_address

FORCE I:4

checks if address is configured

FORCEForce_table_address Value_list

FORCE I:4 1 2

I:4.0 force on = 1, force off = 2

FORCE . . . Force_table_address Value_list

FORCE . . . O:7.4 1 2

O:7.4 force on = 1, force off = 2

Every word of I/O consists of two corresponding words of force data: one word of
force on data and one word of force off data. Force data tables start with the force
on word, followed by the corresponding force off word. Initialize the force data
tables one slot at a time.

In the following example, the force address “FORCE I:4” initializes the first three
words of input force data for slot four, forcing bits I:4.0/0 and I:4.1/4 off, while
forcing bits I:4.2/0 and I:4.2/1 on. (This example assumes that you configured three
or more words of input for slot four.)
