F_SplitBIC

F_SplitBIC 1:

The F_SplitBIC function splits the Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) sBICValue into its components using known identifiers and returns the recognized substrings in a structure ST_SplittedBIC as return value. Spaces at the end of substrings are automatically removed. Unused substrings are returned as empty strings. If an unknown identifier is found, then the remaining string of the BIC is passed on as sUndefined in the return structure. The BIC can be read e.g. with the function blocks FB_EcCoEReadBIC or FB_EcReadBIC (Tc2_EtherCAT Library) from EtherCAT slaves.
