FB_DALIV2SetSettingsType01

FB_DALIV2SetSettingsType01 1:

This function block initializes the variables (EMERGENCY LEVEL, FUNCTION TEST DELAY TIME, DURATION TEST DELAY TIME…) of all emergency lighting control gears in a DALI line with the values that are stored in a structure of type ST_DALIV2DeviceSettingsType01.

Applying a positive edge to the input bStart starts the function block, and the output bBusy goes TRUE. The system first checks whether the bPresent bit is set in the respective structure (see ST_DALIV2DeviceSettingsType01). If this is the case, all control gear variables that are not read-only are initialized with the respective values of the structure. The structure index here reflects the address of the control gear. In other words, data for the device with short address 0 is located at arrDALIDeviceSettingsType01[0], and so on through to the control gear with short address 63 having its data at arrDALIDeviceSettingsType01[63]. If a write error occurs for a device, the element nErrors is set for the respective structure without the function block itself switching to error mode. The following table shows which bit is set in the variable nErrors when an error occurs during the writing of a variable to a control gear.

Bit

Error

5

Error whilst writing the variable EMERGENCY LEVEL

9

Error whilst writing the variable FUNCTION TEST DELAY TIME

10

Error whilst writing the variable DURATION TEST DELAY TIME

11

Error whilst writing the variable FUNCTION TEST INTERVAL

12

Error whilst writing the variable DURATION TEST INTERVAL

13

Error whilst writing the variable TEST EXECUTION TIMEOUT

14

Error whilst writing the variable PROLONG TIME

When the function block has been processed, the output bBusy changes from TRUE to FALSE. Processing this function block can take several seconds, depending on how many control gears are connected.

FB_DALIV2SetSettingsType01 2: Inputs

VAR_INPUT
  bStart           : BOOL;
  bCancel          : BOOL;
  eCommandPriority : E_DALIV2CommandPriority := eDALIV2CommandPriorityHigh;
  nOptions         : DWORD;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

bStart

BOOL

The function block is activated by a positive edge at this input.

bCancel

BOOL

A positive edge at this input will disable the function block and hence abort the reading of the variables.

eCommandPriority

E_DALIV2CommandPriority

Priority (high, medium or low) with which the command is processed by the library.

nOptions

DWORD

Options for reading the variables (see table). The individual constants must be linked with OR operators.

Constant

Description

DALIV2_OPTION_EMERGENCY_LEVEL

The variable EMERGENCY LEVEL is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_NEXT_FUNCTION_TEST

The variable FUNCTION TEST DELAY TIME is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_NEXT_DURATION_TEST

The variable DURATION TEST DELAY TIME is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_FUNCTION_TEST_INTERVAL

The variable FUNCTION TEST INTERVAL is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_DURATION_TEST_INTERVAL

The variable DURATION TEST INTERVAL is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_TEST_EXECUTION_TIMEOUT

The variable TEST EXECUTION TIMEOUT is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_PROLONG_TIME

The variable PROLONG TIME is initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_ALL

All variables are initialized.

DALIV2_OPTION_PUSH_DALI_COMMANDS

The buffer containing the feedback messages from the control gears is not read. Hence, writing becomes faster, but errors are not recognized.

VAR_IN_OUT
  stCommandBuffer             : ST_DALIV2CommandBuffer;
  arrDALIDeviceSettingsType01 : ARRAY [0..63] OF ST_DALIV2DeviceSettingsType01;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

stCommandBuffer

ST_DALIV2CommandBuffer

Reference to the internal structure for communication with FB_KL6811Communication (KL6811) or FB_KL6821Communication (KL6821).

arrDALIDeviceSettingsType01

ARRAY OF ST_DALIV2DeviceSettingsType01

Reference to an array with 64 elements. The settings of each individual DALI control gear are stored in this variable.

FB_DALIV2SetSettingsType01 4: Outputs

VAR_OUTPUT
  bBusy             : BOOL;
  bError            : BOOL;
  nErrorId          : UDINT;
  nCurrentShortAddr : BYTE;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

bBusy

BOOL

When the function block is activated the output is set, and it remains active until execution of the command has been completed.

bError

BOOL

This output is switched to TRUE as soon as an error occurs during the execution of a command. The command-specific error code is contained in nErrorId. Is reset to FALSE by the execution of a command at the inputs.

nErrorId

UDINT

Contains the command-specific error code of the most recently executed command. Is reset to 0 by the execution of a command at the inputs (see error codes).

nCurrentShortAddr

BYTE

Short address of the current control gear from which an attempt is being made to read the variables.
