Overview Requirements Bit Manipulation Point Access Display Function Appendix Using BASIC Module With An SLC The BASIC module Catalog No 1746 8 provides another means of communicating with the SLC This appendix describes the protocol used with the BASIC module The following are required when operating the DTAM Plus with an SLC BASIC module The DTAM Micro does not support communications with a BASIC module DTAM Plus supports 40 consecutive words 0 39 available at the DH 485 port Only integer data is supported Note Data throughput depends on the BASIC program residing in the BASIC module In addition to the BASIC program a ladder type program is required for the SLC processor The SLC BASIC module does not support true bit formats transfers To support bit functions through the DTAM Plus a BASIC program routine must be created to transfer complete words of data This is commonly called masking The DTAM Plus reads data from the BASIC module output file masks the new value and then sends the word data to the input file The BASIC module program then calls the data from this file copies the data and sends the data to the corresponding word in the BASIC module output file The DTAM Plus then reads the data from the BASIC module output file The Point Access Display P AD is limited in functionality when communicating with an SLC BASIC module The P AD function only operates with
