RE: Putting ECBs on/off line without using System Monitor

2001-07-31 Thread Stear, Bo

The reason you can not set the ACTION bit with omset is because it is NOT SETTABLE.  
However, one can still set it with the ever hazardous tool 'setpars'.

When I try to set the ACTION parameter with omset (only testing!) I get an errror code 
of 15.  This corresponds to omopenlist already open.  Is this perhaps because I'm 
talking about an ECB that is used to communicate with an AB PLC on an AW51 integrator 
rather than a more common FBM ECB? omget for this parameter returns a 0.

David,
 
You can set the ACTION Parameter of the ECBs.
Setting this Parameter to 1 turns the ECB on, setting
it to 2 turns the ECB off.

I tried to modify the ACTION Parameter this morning via omset
(AW70 with Profibus I/O (ECB102, ECB103)) and it worked perfectly.

Holger Dahl
