Configuration and operation
4.5 Telecontrol communication (CP 1542SP-1 IRC)
● Event trigger (Trigger tag)
The value of the data point is saved when a configurable trigger signal is fired. For the
trigger signal, the edge change (0 → 1) of a trigger tag is evaluated that is set by the user
program. When necessary, a separate trigger tag can be configured for each data point.
Resetting the trigger tag in the bit memory area / DB:
If the memory area of a trigger tag is in the bit memory or in a data block, the CP resets
the trigger variable itself to 0 (zero) as soon as the value of the data point has been
transferred. This can take up to 500 milliseconds.
Note
Fast setting of triggers
Triggers must not be set faster than a minimum interval of 500 milliseconds. This also
applies to hardware triggers (input area).
Note
Hardware trigger
You need to reset hardware triggers via the user program
Transferring the value of a data point configured as an event
You specify whether the value of a data point is transferred to the communications partner
immediately after the trigger fires or after a delay in the "Transmission mode" parameter.
Transmission mode
The transmission mode of a frame is set in the "Trigger" tab of the data point. With the
option, you specify whether messages of events are sent immediately or following a delay:
● Immediate transfer - Spontaneous
The value is transferred immediately.
● Buffered transfer - Conditionally spontaneous
The value is transferred only when one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
– The communications partner queries the station.
– The value of another event with the transmission mode "Spontaneous" is transferred.
