CTTBLEDT - CTRIO Edit Preset Table Entry

The CTRIO Edit Preset Table Entry (CTTBLEDT) instruction is used to edit an entry in the preset table that is currently loaded for the specified CTRIO Discrete Output. The CTTBLEDT instruction can be used with both the CTRIO and CTRIO2 module. This instruction implements the Edit Table Entry and Edit Table Entry and Reload CTRIO functions.

Changes made to CTRIO Preset tables using this instruction do not change any of the Preset tables that were configured in the Module Configuration for the CTRIO. They are temporary and are lost on a power-cycle of the CTRIO or if some other table is loaded in their place. The changes made by this instruction cannot be viewed in the Module Configuration.

Parameters:

Note: Use the F9 key to open the Default Element Selection Tool (the Element Picker or the Element Browser) or use the Down-Arrow key (Auto-Complete) on any parameter field to see a complete list of the memory locations that are valid for that parameter of the instruction.

Discrete Output Device - selects which preconfigured CTRIO Discrete Output device to use. Before this instruction can select a Discrete Output device, a CTRIO Device must be configured with at least one of its output channels setup for Discrete output mode.

no devices available - indicates that there are no CTRIO Discrete Output devices that have been configured that can perform this instruction.

create module - will open the Create New Module Configuration dialog where a CTRIO Module can be created and then a CTRIO Discrete Output device can then be configured.

Discrete Output Structure - displays the name of the Discrete Output structure that will be used by this instruction. This structure was created when the CTRIO module configuration was read during the Module Configuration phase.

File Number - specifies which Preset Table to edit. The Preset Table can be specified in one of the following ways:

Fixed File - displays a list of the Preset Tables that were read from the CTRIO module during the Module Configuration phase. Select the desired profile from the list.
Variable File Number - specifies a memory location where the Output Preset table number resides. This can be any readable numeric location.

Entry Number - the specific entry in the Preset Table that will be changed. This can be any constant value from 0 to 255, or any writable numeric location.

Preset - specifies the count at which the desired action will take place. This can be any positive or negative constant value, or any writable numeric location.

Entry Type - designates which of the following actions to perform at the specified Preset:

0 - Set Output ON
1 - Set Output OFF
2 - Pulse Output ON
3 - Pulse Output OFF
4 - Toggle Output
5 - Reset Count

Pulse Time (ms) - (only valid Entry Type is 2 or 3) - Specifies the duration of the pulse, in milliseconds, when the Entry Type is set to 2 (Pulse Output ON) or 3 (Pulse Output OFF). This can be any constant value from 0 to 65535, or any readable numeric location.

Reload - enabling this option implements CTRIO function Edit Table Entry and Reload which causes the CTRIO to reload the Preset Table immediately after it is changed.

Note: any time the On Error condition occurs, the CTRIO generates an Error Code that can be read in the <Module Name>.ErrorCode (Module Name is the name assigned to the CTRIO in the Module Configuration). The List of Error Code values (in decimal) follows:

Error Code	Description
000	No Error
100	Specified command code is unknown or unsupported
101	File number not found in the file system
102	File type is incorrect for specified output function
103	Profile type is unknown
104	Specified input is not configured as a limit on this output
105	Specified limit input edge is out of range
106	Specified input function is unconfigured or invalid
107	Specified input function number is out of range
108	Specified preset function is invalid
109	Preset table is full
110	Specified Table entry is out of range
111	Specified register number is out of range
112	Specified register is an unconfigured input or output
113	Specified output is not configured as a limit on this output
114	Specified preset function invalid in PLS table
115	Specified PLS function invalid in preset table
116	PLS table entries overlap
117	Attempted to use axis function when pulse output is not in Axis Mode
118	Specified output isn't a pulse output

Status Display:

The Status display of the instruction shows Values: Entry Number, Preset, and Pulse Time (ms), and the Highlight: .OutputEnabled, and .TableComplete bits.

The red triangle in the upper left corner of the status display indicates this is a Fully Asynchronous instruction.

The gray triangle at the right end of the input leg indicates the input is edge-triggered, meaning this instruction will execute each time the input logic transitions from OFF to ON.

Description of a Typical CTRIO Edit Preset Table Entry (CTTBLEDT) Stage Diagram:

This is a stage diagram of a simple sequence control that loads a Preset Table for a CTRIO discrete output, makes a change to it, enables the output and utilizes the edited Preset Table. When the table is complete, the discrete output is then disabled and the Preset table cleared out for this CTRIO discrete output.

LdPT (Load Preset Table) is the initial stage that loads a particular Preset Table for a CTRIO discrete output. When loaded successfully it transitions to the next stage.

EdtPT (Edit Preset Table) stage edits an entry in the just-loaded Preset Table. When successful it transitions to the next stage.

EnOut (Enable Output) stage resets a CTRIO input count (mechanically associated with the CTRIO pulse output) to zero and enables the CTRIO discrete output for use with the Preset Table just loaded. When successful it transitions to the next stage.

RunPT (Run Preset Table) runs a CTRIO pulse output that is associated with the CTRIO input count in order to make use of the Preset Table. When a certain number of pulses has been reached the process is complete and transition is made to the next stage to clean up.

DisOut (Disabe Output) stage disables the CTRIO discrete output and transitions to the next stage.

ClrTbl (Clear Table) stage uses the CTTBLCLR instruction to clear the Preset Table from the CTRIO discrete output.

Exit stage exits the Program code block.

Description of a Typical CTRIO Edit Preset Table Entry (CTTBLEDT) Stage Ladder:

This is equivalent ladder for the above stage diagram of a simple sequence control that loads a Preset Table for a CTRIO discrete output, makes a change to it, enables the output and utilizes the edited Preset Table. When the table is complete, the discrete output is then disabled and the Preset table cleared out for this CTRIO discrete output.

This example presupposes the existence of the following System Configuration for the CTRIO (PLC --> System Configuration --> Module Configuration(s) --> CTRIO_000 -->):

Configure I/O -->

Channel 1 --> Quad Counter.
Outputs -->

Out0 --> Pulse (Step/Dir)
Out2 --> Discrete on Ch1/Fn1.

Discrete Tables --> Add Preset Table: with the following parameters:
File Number: 1
Name: MyPT
Scales: Unscaled
Entry: SET at 2000
Entry: RESET at 4000
A quadrature encoder is wired to CTRIO's Channel 1 Input A & B that is physically associated with the motor attached to the CTRIO's Output 0 & 1.
A stepper motor is wired to CTRIO's Output 0 & 1 that is physically associated with the quadrature encoder attached to the CTRIO's Channe 1 Input A & B.
A discrete device that utilizes the CTRIO's Output is wired to CTRIO's Output 2.

LoadPT (Load Preset Table) is the initial stage that executes a CTTBLLD instruction to load the MyPT Preset Table for CTRIO discrete output Out2. When loaded successfully it transitions to the EditPT stage. If there is an error transition is made to the ErrorStage stage where logic (not shown here) should exist to handle the error.

EditPT (Edit Preset Table) edits the first entry in the previously-loaded Preset Table and changes it:

From: SET at 2000

To: SET at 3000

The edited table is then reloaded (notice the Reload parameter is set). When the edit completes transition is made to the EnableOut stage. If there is an error, transition is made to the ErrorStage stage.

EnableOut stage resets CTRIO Channel 1 Function 1 input count to zero and enables the CTRIO discrete output Out2 for use with the MyPT Preset Table just loaded. When the feedback bits (.OutputEnabled, .AtResetValue) show this is successful transition is made to the RunPT stage.

RunPT (Run Preset Table) executes a CTRUNVEL instruction that generates 35,000 pulses out the CTRIO pulse output Out0 at Frequency 1000 pps. If there is an error, transition is made to the ErrorStage stage. Since this output is physically associated with the CTRIO Channel 1 Function 1 quadrature encoder input, the input count increases, exercising the Preset Table and the CTRIO discrete output Out2. When 35,000 pulses have been output, the process is complete and transition is made to the DisableOut stage to clean up. Suspend bit is used to temporarily suspend the CTRUNVEL if need be.

DisableOut stage disables the CTRIO discrete output and transitions to the ClearTable stage.

ClearTable stage uses the CTTBLCLR instruction to clear the Preset Table from the CTRIO discrete output Out2 and transitions to the Exit stage. If there is an error, transition is made to the ErrorStage stage.

Exit stage exits the Program code block.

ErrorStage is where logic (not shown here) should exist to handle the errors for this sequence.
