FiFoGetDimension

The function block FiFoGetDimension determines the dimensioning, i.e. the number of the axes and the maximum number of FIFO entries in a FIFO channel.

Inputs

VAR_INPUT
    iChannelId  : UDINT;
    bExecute    : BOOL;
    tTimeout    : TIME;
END_VAR

Name	Type	Description
iChannelId	UDINT	Channel ID of the FIFO channel
bExecute	BOOL	Edge-triggered signal for execution of the command
tTimeout	TIME	ADS timeout (about 1 second)

Outputs

VAR_OUTPUT
    bBusy             : BOOL;
    bErr              : BOOL;
    iErrId            : UDINT;
    iNoOfAxes         : UDINT;
    iNoOfFifoEntries  : UDINT;
END_VAR

Name	Type	Description
bBusy	BOOL	Becomes `TRUE` with a rising edge at bExecute, and remains TRUE until the block has executed the command.
bErr	BOOL	Becomes `TRUE` if an error occurs while executing the command.
iErrId	UDINT	Error number (ADS or NC error number)
iNoOfAxes	UDINT	Number of axes for which the FIFO channel has been parameterised.
iNoOfFifoEntries	UDINT	Number of FIFO entries for which the FIFO channel has been parameterised.
