Configuration the SERVER.EXE 8.2

In our example a CNC is to be connected with a host PC.

On the host PC SERVER.EXE is installed.

The CNC is to be able to access data of the host PC.

1. Adjustments in the CNC

1.1 Define the host PC IP address in the CNC

In the NETCONF of the CNC with the command host the IP address of the host PC is defined.

In our example the IP address host PC of the:172.16.20.40 are and via CNC ETH - Interface-E2 are
reached (see route 1)

Example: /NETCONF.

# lines starting with # in the first column are a comment

#
# define the local network address of CNC
#
local 172.16.20.43
netmask 255.255.0.0
#
# define file server adress (don't forget the route)
host 172.16.20.40
#
# define the control panel(s)
#control_panel 172.16.20.44 255.255.0.0 000000000000
#
route 172.16.20.40 255.255.0.0 0.0.0.0 1

1.2 Adapt the /BP/CNC900C/CNC900X.CFG

In the file cnc900x.cfg the paths are defined, which are offered in the I/O mask under selection
(SELECT E/A directory).

Example: /bp/cnc900c/cnc900x.cfg

DRIPFEED:/ ncdata
NCDATA1:/ ncdata
NCDATA2:// server/ ncdata_1
NCDATA3:// server/ ncdata_2

In our example is this:

NCDATA1 / ncdata
local directory in the panel

NCDATA2 // server/ ncdata_1

directory ncdata_1 in the host PC below the server Mount point of SERVER.EXE

NCDATA3 .. the same

STEUERUNGSSYSTEM 900

2. Adjustments at the host PC

2.1 Provide a link for Server.exe

- right mouse button on the desktop-link

- then on "characteristics" - it opens the following window

- target: program name / server Mount point

- target: C:\Programs\BWO\Server.exe "C:\CNC of programs"

- program name: server.exe

- Server Mount point: "C:\CNC of programs"

4.7.2 Functions

In the block selection input field you can select an input, output or flag block.

When the cursor is in the block selection input field you can scroll forwards or backwards a block at a
time using page up and page down.

Depending on I/O size 32, an I/O block consists of either 8 or 32 inputs / outputs.
(E1.1.1 – E1.1.8 or E1.1.1 – E1.1.32)

A flag block consists of 16 flags. (M1.1 – M1.16)

In online mode the current memory content is shown in the Value column. This can be overwritten.

4.8 Editors

4.8.1 Symbol editor

The symbol editor is used to assign symbol names to defined symbolic addresses and the associated
comments.

With symbolic addressing the desired memory address,

input or output is represented by an easily comprehensible, low-level combination of letters and
digits. Addresses are shown in accordance with the following definitions:

4.8.2 Structure of symbol list

.def E[st].[sl].[e]

Symbolic address Example

Flag M[g].[n] M1.2

Input E[st].[sl].[e] E1.3.17
Output A[st].[sl].[a] A1.1.9

.def = Definition label

[g] = Group number (1 ... 3840)
[n] = Bit or register number (1 ... 16)
[st] = Station number (1)
[sl] = Slot number (1 ... 32)
[e] = Input number (1 ... 32)
[a] = Output number (1 ... 32)

A symbol name represents a meaningful abbreviation for the use of a flag, input
or output.

Definition labels are used to define the symbolic addresses of the following inputs, outputs and flags.
They are used for assignment to particular modules.

- The general key combinations apply (see page...)
- Everything highlighted in green is used in the current project
- If you delete one of the symbols, a security query appears (see Fig 16)
- A highlighted symbol is not overwritten (this only applies in the symbol editor)
- If you change a symbol that is being used, a message appears (see Fig 17)
- undo function (right-click) reverses all changes one at a time
- Replace function in the symbol editor is slightly different from in the other editors
- (in other editors, some selection fields have a grey background / cannot be selected)

Fig 16 Fig 17

4.8.5 Text editors

The text editor is used to create program and function modules in either AWL (instruction list) or
Logicode. These differ from the symbol editor and ladder diagram in a number of functions.

4.8.9 Editing functions in online mode

In online mode you can use the force function, which allows you to define the value according to the
current project. (This can be reset by the program.)

Fig 23

Access the force function in online mode by right-clicking on the symbol. The presetting is always 0.
You can also change the value on the left, which allows you to operate more than one timer
simultaneously, as shown in the example above.

The force function can be used in the instruction list, Logicode and ladder diagram languages.

Fig 34
Working with XPLC

4.9 Sequence

4.9.1 General

The sequence editor enables you to create sequences graphically and incorporate them into the
program. Each sequence has a sequence name. A sequence consists of a
series of steps and transitions. Steps are sections of programs, and transitions are the conditions
between one program section and the next.

Each step includes at least one transition, and each transition is followed by just one step.
So when the program moves from one step to the next, it only goes through one transition. (Fig 35)

In the symbol list the sequence is defined by a symbolic name.

e.g.: g-state SK_state_1

- The status defines which sequence is used

- In Run you can start and stop the current sequence
- Use Reset to reset the sequence

Fig 35

Steps Transitions

Steps and transitions can be placed wherever you like in the editor.
Working with XPLC

4.9.2 Editing options

Right-click to open a context menu

- New state Insert a new step (positionable anywhere)

- New comment Insert a new comment

Fig 36

The step circled in bold is the start of the sequence; in online status this is highlighted in green.
A context menu allows you to define any step as the start.

Each step can trigger several actions.

- S Set Set flags and outputs

- R Reset Reset flags and outputs
- = Assign flags and outputs
- A Action Call a function
- D Display Display additional inputs, flags or outputs

As in the other editors, a comment appears when you hover the mouse over a symbol. (see Fig 20)
Working with XPLC

4.9.2 Editing options (continued)

Fig 37

Right-click – see figure above

- Edit name Give step the name of your choice

- New transition New condition
- Set start state Set as start of sequence
- Edit timeout The step must be executed within this time, otherwise the system will
branch out after the timeout and the actions in this step will be
triggered
- Edit delay The delay time is the amount of time the transition must be pending
before the step is triggered
- Cut Cut / Delete

4.9.3 Editing options in online status

- In online mode the active step / transition is highlighted in green

- The FORCE function is available as with the other editors discussed previously
- RUN is shown in green
- On the left are actions that are triggered (can be defined for each step)
Working with XPLC

4.10 Extended editing functions

4.10.1 Auto-complete

Auto-complete enables you to see which symbols in the project have been agreed on.
This function applies to all editing functions.

As soon as you enter a letter, a submenu opens showing all the agreed symbol names starting with
this letter. The more letters you enter, the smaller the list becomes.

Example

Explanation using the example of the memory map

Fig 38

If you enter the letter M, a drop-down menu automatically appears showing all symbols defined
starting with M. The more letters you specify, the smaller the list becomes.

ME ⇒ Only those symbols with ME in the symbol name appear

If you enter a symbol name in full, it will no longer appear in the drop-down list, only the symbols below
it.

Example

There are messages ME10 to ME19, but only ME11 – ME19 appear in the drop-down list because
ME10 is already in the block selection field

Press the "Esc" key to exit auto-complete

The order in which symbol names appear in the list depends on the order in which they were created;
they are not sorted alphabetically.

- Some C commands

4.16 Symbols and constants (symbolic names)

A symbol or symbol name is a series of letters and numbers that is not permitted to contain
separators and must begin with a letter.

Symbols are created with the aid of the symbol editor

For example:

bit i
byte test
alfa
long foo123
bit ABLINK
SIMUL

123foo is not permitted!

XPLC programming language

Numerical constants, on the other hand, always take the following form:

Decimal

4.20 Commands in LogiCode

A program module in LogiCode consists of one or more compound commands.

Simple commands are terminated with the character ' ; '.

Compound commands are combined into a block using brackets { }.

The brackets may enclose individual or compound commands.

In the following section, the term logoCode command refers to a simple or compound command.

Simple commands include:

Assignments, tests and loops.

Simple assignment:

Variable = Mathematical expression ;

LED1 = 1 ;

The variable LED1 is assigned the value 1.

FOO = ZOO + 5 ;

The variable FOO is assigned the result of the mathematical expression ZOO + 5.

Assignments with conditional setting and resetting of variable:

LED1 #S E1 & E2 ; // conditional set

The variable LED1 is set to the value 1 if the result of E1 & E2 is true;

LED1 #R E1 & E2 ; // conditional reset

The variable LED1 is set to the value 0 if the result of E1 & E2 is true;

LED1 #!S E1 & E2 ; // conditional set

The variable LED1 is set to the value 1 if the result of E1 & E2 is not true;

LED1 #!R E1 & E2 ; // conditional reset

The variable LED1 is set to the value 0 if the result of E1 & E2 is not true;
XPLC programming language

Assignments with mathematical operator:

Written as follows

COUNTER = COUNTER + 5;

Can be abbreviated as follows

COUNTER += 5 ;

In place of the operator += it is also possible to use the following:

-= Assignment with subtraction A -= 2; A=A - 2;

*= Assignment with multiplication A *= 2 ; A=A * 2;
/= Assignment with division A /=2; A=A / 2;
%= Assignment with remainder of division A %=2; A=A % 2;

&= Assignment with bitwise AND A &=3; A=A & 3;

|= Assignment with bitwise OR A |=3; A=A | 3;
^= Assignment with bitwise XOR A ^=3; A=A ^ 3;

Program-controlling commands:

if , if else

if: Conditional execution if fulfilled

if ( mathematical / logical expression )

logiCode command ;

if else: Conditional execution if fulfilled / not fulfilled

if ( mathematical / logical expression )

logiCode command ; // This command is executed if the

// mathematical expression is true

else

logiCode command ; // This command is executed if the

// mathematical expression is false
XPLC programming language

Examples:

if ( a >= 1 ) // b=1 if a >= 1

b=1;

if ( a >= 1 ) // b=1 if a>=1 otherwise b = 0

b=1;
else
b=0;

Program-controlling commands:

switch case default

switch Multiple branching

switch ( mathematical expression )

{
case constant_1 :
logiCode command;
break;

case constant_2 :
logiCode command;
break;

...........................
...........................
...........................

default :
logiCode command;
break;
}

The command sequence that corresponds to the result of the expression

is executed.

The command break ends the code sequence

XPLC programming language

Example:

a=2;
b=1;
c=0;

switch ( a + b )
{
case 1:
c=11;
a=5;
break;

case 2:
c=12;
a=1
break;

case 3:
c=13;
a=0;
break;

default :
c=14;
a=6;
break;

The code sequence for section case 3 is executed.

If the value of the expression does not match any case

the default code section is executed.
XPLC programming language

Program-controlling commands:

while , do while

while: Loop with test at beginning

while ( logical expression )

logiCode command ;

do while: Loop with test at end

do
{
logiCode command ;

} while ( logical expression ) ;

As long as the logical expression accepts the value as true, the program loops will run.

PLEASE NOTE:

IN THE LOOP BODY THE LOGICAL EXPRESSION MUST BE MANIPULATED SUCH

THAT THE LOOP IS ENDED AFTER A FEW CYCLES.

Example:

i=0; // initialise run variable i

while ( i < 10 ) // check run variable i
{

...........
...........
i++; // increment run variable i
}
XPLC programming language

Program-controlling commands:

for

for : Loop with start command, test, and manipulation of run variable at end

for ( start command ; logical expression ; end command )

Example:

for ( i=0 ; i < 10 ; i++ )

{
a[i] = i;
}

This loop is run through 10 times.

The loop described above is equivalent to:

i=0;
while ( i < 10 )
{
a[i] = i;
i++;
}
XPLC programming language

Function modules in LogiCode

To make the program more straightforward it is split up into small function units that describe
simple tasks.

In the explanation that follows these are referred to as function modules.

Examples of function module calls include:

module name () ; // without parameter transfer

module name ( a , b , 5 ); // with parameter transfer

a=module name ( a , c ); // with parameter transfer and return value

The function module is created with the aid of the module editor and is added to the
project tree as an individual file.

This allows the function module to be used by other parts of the program.

Structure of the function module:

The general structure of a module is:

Transfer parameter agreement,

module body with agreement of local variables, the logiCode commands and return value

As a simple example, an addition module add should be defined in which two parameters par1 and
par2 are added together and can then be called:

c= add ( a,b );

To do this, the add file is created in the project tree with the following content:

long par1; // definition of the first transfer parameter as a 32-bit value

long par2; // definition of the second transfer parameter as a 32-bit value

// definition of the function body

{
long res; // definition of the local variables

res = par1 + par2; // The function

return ( res ); // return value

}

4.21 Editor for programming with instruction list (AWL)

4.21.1 Introduction

The XPLC programming software enables you to create program modules and function modules in
instruction list language (AWL). The user can use simple bit-oriented commands, complex word- or
double-word-oriented commands, arithmetic and logical commands, and subprogram techniques.

This section explains the basic principles of programming in instruction list language and provides a
list of all AWL commands.

4.21.2 Language elements in instruction list (AWL)

One program line in AWL may contain a variety of language elements in the following order:

[Label] [Index][Code] [Sym] [*Line com]

or

*[Comment]

Explanations:

[Label] = Jump label (optional)

[Index] = Index (optional)
[Code] = Command code
[Sym] = Symbol name
[*Line com] = Comment (optional)

Refer to next page for example

XPLC programming language

Example

4.21.3 Registers

The CNC central units use various internal registers in order to perform arithmetic functions and bit
operations.

Internal status register (IS register), 1 bit

The internal status register is used for interim storage of the result of a logical
link with Boolean commands, e.g. L,U,ON,=,UN. IS is written and read by the central unit only. It can
however be viewed for diagnostic purposes.

Index register X and index register Y (X register and Y register), 16 bit

Index registers X and Y enable indirect addressing of flags, inputs and outputs in System 900. The
actual address is only calculated as the program is running. The content of one or both index registers
is added to the address in operand 2 when the command is executed. Using this method, it is simple
to create program loops or variable subprograms, for example.
XPLC programming language

Example:

START X LAD 64 *Load X register with 64

Y LAD 16 *Load Y register with 16
LOOP X DCR 6 *Decrement X register to 0,
*then jump to +6
Y DCR 5 *Decrement Y register to 0,
*then jump to +5
X LDH M98.1 *Load M98.1+(X register value)
Y LDH M200.1 *Load M200.1+(Y register value)
XY LDL A1.1.1 *Load A1.1.1+(X register value+Y *register value)
JMP LOOP *Jump back

4.21.3 Registers (continued)

Top-of-stack register (TOS register), 32 registers with 32 bits

The TOS register is available for arithmetic operations and bitwise logical and memory-oriented
commands. It consists of 32 registers of 32 bits each, split into two 16-bit subregisters (high-word and
low-word) that can be written separately. Write and read operations are performed with the aid of a
stack pointer (SP).
XPLC programming language

4.22 Instruction list (AWL) commands

All usable instruction list (AWL) commands are listed below.

The following notation is used:

Const = Numerical or time constant (decimal: 534, hexadecimal: $A436, octal: ’346
paddr = Program address (absolute: $F9B2, symbolic: START, relative: *+39)
maddr = Memory address (absolute: $610, symbolic: M98.1)
