Prm_Rd (Read Servopack Parameter) - YASKAWA SVC User Manual

4.3.2

PRM_RD (Read SERVOPACK Parameter)

The PRM_RD subcommand reads the set value from the SERVOPACK RAM of the SERVO-
PACK parameter that corresponds to the specified parameter number and parameter size. The
read value is then stored in the IW37 (Auxiliary SERVOPACK Parameter Number) and
IL3A (Auxiliary SERVOPACK Parameter Read Data) monitor parameters.
Two types of SERVOPACK parameters can be read with this command: vendor-specific
parameters, which are vendor-specific specifications for the particular Servo product used, and
Servo common parameters, which are defined in the MECHATROLINK-III communications
specifications. Set bit 8 (SERVOPACK Parameter Access Selection) in the OW09 setting
parameter to select which type of SERVOPACK parameter to read.
Execution and Operating Procedures
1.
Make sure that the following condition is met.
No.
1
*
This subcommand cannot be executed until the execution of other motion subcommands is completed.
2.
Set the following setting parameters.
• OW09, Bit 8 (SERVOPACK Parameter Access Selection)
• OW54 (Auxiliary SERVOPACK Parameter Number)
• OW55 (Auxiliary SERVOPACK Parameter Size)
3.
Set the OW0A setting parameter (Motion Subcommands) to 1 to execute the
PRM_RD motion subcommand.
The PRM_RD command reads the SERVOPACK parameter and stores the contents in the monitor
parameters.
The IW0A monitor parameter (Motion Subcommand Response Code) is 1 during execution of
this command.
During command processing, bit 0 (Command Execution Flag) in the IW0B monitor parameter
will change to 1 (Processing). When processing is completed, this bit will change to 0 (Completed).
4.
Set OW0A to 0 to execute the NOP motion subcommand.
This concludes the process for reading SERVOPACK parameters.
