Sub-Element Word and Bit Mnemonics

Certain SLC 500 data file elements are made up of multiple words. For example,
Timer and Counter elements use 3 words each, where ST file elements use 42 words
each. (Refer to

Appendix C - Data File Organization and Addressing

in the

Instruction

Set Reference

for more information.) In order to address individual sub-elements or

bits within these multi-word data types, you must use word or bit mnemonics.

Reserved mnemonics may be delimited in the manner described on the previous page
for sub-element words or bits, but cannot be used in conjunction with the (_) character
at the end of a symbol name. For example, in the symbol name SYM_1_ACC, the
“_ACC” portion is a reserved mnemonic and will be truncated during address parsing.
If you want to use the letters of a reserved mnemonic in a symbol name, you could use a
dash ( - ) instead of a space or underscore (_). For example, if you wanted to use the
letters LS to signify Limit Switch in a symbol name rather than the HSC Interrupt Lost
Bit (.LS), you would use a symbol like TEST-LS rather than TEST_LS.

The following is a list of reserved sub-element (w) and bit (b) mnemonics:
