FB_CXReadKBusError

FB_CXReadKBusError 1:

The function block enables further information to be read out about a K-bus error in order to obtain a more precise error image and to enable better diagnosis.

The prerequisite for this is that you use the K-bus terminals directly on your CX.

Example: If you are using the K-bus extension and the cable of the K-bus extension is disconnected, then you will see a K-bus interruption as nErrorCode = 4 and the position where the K-bus has been interrupted as nErrorArgument = Position.

Name

Type

Description

bEnable

BOOL

Link this variable to bit 0 of the K-bus state to activate the read process automatically in case of a K-bus error.

The K-bus State is a Word variable. To mask out bit 0 of your linked variables, you can use <VariableName>.0.
