IOF_SER_DRIVE_Backup

IOF_SER_DRIVE_Backup 1:

The “IOF_SER_DRIVE_Backup” function block allows the backup and restore of the drive data (S- and P-parameters) of the PLC in a binary file. The list of S- and P-parameter data to be backed up is taken by default from the Sercos parameter IDN192. Backup and restore require the SERCOS parameter mode (phase 2).

If bStdBackupList = TRUE (standard), the IDN192 parameter is taken as the list of the data to be backed up; otherwise IDN17, the list of all Sercos parameters, is taken. Restore requires a backup file that was created with the IDN192 parameter, since some parameters in the IDN17 list are write protected.

Backup and restore create a CRC16-CCITT and a 16-bit checksum and save them in the IDN142 parameter, if available.

The file format of the backup file is described in the backup file format.

VAR_INPUT

VAR_INPUT
    bCheck        : BOOL;
    bBackup       : BOOL;
    bRestore      : BOOL;
    bCRCEnable    : BOOL := TRUE;
    bStdBackupList: BOOL := TRUE;
    sNetId        : T_AmsNetId;
    nPort         : UINT;
    sComment      : T_MaxString;
    ePath         : E_OpenPath := PATH_BOOTPATH;

    tTimeout      : TIME := DEFAULT_ADS_TIMEOUT;
END_VAR

bCheck: The check by CRC and checksum is activated by a rising edge at this input. CRC and checksum are saved persistently and in the IDN142 parameter after a backup or a restore. bCheckOK is set to TRUE if the value from the IDN142 parameter matches the persistent data, otherwise bCheckOK is set to FALSE.

bBackup: the backup is activated by a rising edge at this input.

bRestore: the restore is activated by a rising edge at this input.

bCRCEnable: The CRC16-CCITT and the 16-bit checksum are activated via bCRCEnable = TRUE. The CRC and the checksum are saved in the IDN142 parameter if bCRCEnable = TRUE.

bStdBackupList: determines which parameter list is used for the backup. By default IDN192 (bStdBackupList = TRUE) is used for the backup. If bStdBackupList = FALSE, the list of all parameters, IDN017, is used. Restore requires a backup file created with the IDN192 list.

sNetId: The network address of the TwinCAT computer on which the ADS command is to be executed can be entered here (type: T_AmsNetId). If it is to be run on the local computer, an empty string can be entered.

nPort: The port number nPort is assigned by the TwinCAT system during the hardware configuration.

sComment: A comment that is written in the file header of the backup file (type: T_MaxString).

ePath: Determines the path of the backup file. If ePath = PATH_BOOTPATH, the TwinCAT boot path is taken. If ePath = PATH_GENERIC, the path specified in sPathName is taken (type: E_OpenPath).

sPathName: Contains the file name (if using the boot path) or the complete path and file name if using the generic path (type: T_MaxString).

tTimeout: States the length of the timeout that may not be exceeded during execution of the command.

VAR_OUTPUT

VAR_OUTPUT
    bBusy     : BOOL;
    bError    : BOOL;
    nErrId    : UDINT;
    bCheckOK  : BOOL;
END_VAR

bBusy: When the function block is activated this output is set. It remains set until a feedback is received.

bError: If an error should occur during the transfer of the command, then this output is set once the bBusy output was reset.

nErrId: Returns the ADS error number or the specific function block error number if the ERR output is set.
