To enter data interactively, two operations must occur. First, numeric information must be requested.
Requesting the numeric information is accomplished with the
numeric variable to place the data into, and the
entered. Numeric information can also be requested by placing the
argument (e.g.,
A(READ1),12.52,(READ2),5.62
response must be provided. The numeric response must be preceded by the interactive data specifier (
and followed by a delimiter (<cr> or <lf>).
Command processing will pause while waiting for data.
Example:
VARS1="Enter the count > "
VAR5=READ1
; Transmit string variable 1, and wait for numeric data in the
; form of !'<data>. Once numeric data has been received, place
; it in numeric variable 5
!'65.12
; Variable 5 will receive the value 65.12

The Bit Select (
) operator specifies which bit to select. The primary purpose of this command is to let the
.
user specify a specific bit (or range), instead of having to type in an entire bit string.
When using the bit operator in a comparison, the bit operator must always come to the left of the
comparison. For example, the command
Command Shortcut Examples (affect only one binary bit location):
• Activate outputs at I/O location Brick 3, I/O point 9:
• Enable analog input at I/O location Brick 2, I/O point 2:
• Enable error-checking bit 6 for task 3:
Example:
VARB2=ER.12
; Error status bit 12 assigned to binary variable 2
VARB2
; Response (if bit 12 is set to 1):
; *VARB2=XXXX_XXXX_XXX1_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX
