FB_MBUS_General_Heat

The function block FB_MBUS_General_Heat is used to read heat meters.

	Many heat meters do not send all values. In this case the corresponding structures remain empty.

The function block can only be executed together with the function block FB_MBUSKL6781().

	Further information See Operating principle of the function block

END_VAR

Name	Type	Description
usiAddress	USINT	Primary address of the meter to be read with this function block.
stSecAdr	ST_MBUS_SecAdr	Secondary address of the meter to be read with this function block.
eBaudrate	E_MBUS_Baudrate	300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 baud
bStart	BOOL	All meters are read once on the positive edge of this input.
bSND_NKE	BOOL	TRUE initializes the meter for each read operation and sets the meter to the first telegram (SND_NKE).
bReadInit	BOOL	If the PLC is restarted, the meter is read once.
tMinSendTime	TIME	Default t#2s. The meter is read again, once the time set here has elapsed. If t#0s the meter is not read and can be read manually with bStart.
usiUnit	USINT	Unit of the energy values to be output by the function block. 0=W(h) / 1=KW(h) / 2 =MW(h) / 3=GW(h).
bDisabled	BOOL	TRUE = deselection of the function block
