Date
The Date is transmitted similar to a 32-bit Word with the MOST significant byte first, then the
next MOST significant, until all the bytes are transmitted. FC3 reads 16-bit items at a time;
therefore, two registers are required to read each Date data item. Combine the two characters
in the 1st Register to obtain the four digit year.
Example (Decimal): 2007-10-05 (Format in YYYY-MM-DD)
Time (Format 1)
The Time is transmitted similar to a 32-bit Word with the MOST significant byte first, then the
next MOST significant, until all the bytes are transmitted. FC3 reads 16-bit items at a time;
therefore, two registers are required to read each Time data item. The Time is always in 24
Hours Format.
Example (Decimal): 00:15:46:25 (Format in DD:HH:MM:SS)
Time (Format 2)
The Time is transmitted similar to a 32-bit Word with the MOST significant byte first, then the
next MOST significant, until all the bytes are transmitted. FC3 reads 16-bit items at a time;
therefore, two registers are required to read each Time data item. The Time is always in 24
Hours Format.
Example (Decimal): 46:25 (Format in HH:MM)
Date & Time
The Date and Time is transmitted similar to a 32-bit Word with the MOST significant byte first,
then the next MOST significant, until all the bytes are transmitted. FC3 reads 16-bit items at a
time; therefore, two registers are required to read each Date and Time data item. The Time is
always in 24 Hours Format. Combine the two characters in the 1st Register and convert from
Hex to Decimal to obtain the four digit year.
Example (Decimal): 2007-07-28 15:46:25 (Format in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS)
