Read Machine Data Directory (Mode 64)

In this mode, you obtain information from the I P247 about
the machine data records stored on the IP247 and
the axis for which the records are valid.
The information for all three axes is made available simultaneously. COM247 uses this mode with
the "information function", If a destination data block is set up in the PC in which the information
can be entered, you can read the machine data directory using FBI 65 via the PC interface.
For more detailed information, refer to the description of FBI 65 in Section 6.3 "Standard Func-
(
tion Block FBI 65' .

Read Machine Data (Mode 67)

With the "read machine data" mode, a machine data record is transferred from the IP247 either to
the CPU or using COM247 to the PG or to diskette/hard disk, COM247 uses this mode when you
press the appropriate function key. With FB1 65, you can transfer a machine data record via the
PC interface to the CPU. When doing this, remember that the machine data record
can be transferred via any page if the DB numbers are different,
must be transferred via the axis page if the DB numbers are the same,
must be entered in an adequately long destination data block set up in the CPU.
You should use this mode to save machine data in the CPU. Only in this way can you exchange
a module without using the PG.
For more detailed information about mode 67 refer to Section 6.3 "Standard Function Block
FBI 65".
