7.4.3.1 Status Messages
Status messages comprise not only default messages as listed in the fol-
lowing table but also additional user-defined messages.
Using the TS (TesiMod) software, and starting with message no. 17, user-
defined system-specific status messages must be manually entered in
text form. The appropriate level / location is reached using the following
sequence of menu commands:
Edit /Messages. These messages are enabled by entries in DM255, be-
ginning with data word DW462.
Example: Message no. 18 (second free user message) is to be displayed.
The PLC program must write the contents of 0002
hex
into data word
DW462.
7.4.3.2 Serial Messages
Serial messages are entered, together with their message number, in
data word D496 in data module DM255. For this purpose, the following
handshake must be performed:
• Load contents of D496
• If D496=0, the PLC program will be able to write a message num-
ber into the data word.
