FUNCTION_BLOCK SimpleReadCoilInput

Evaluation of the actual values for function codes 01 (Read Coils) and 02 (Read Discrete Inputs)

When evaluating the actual values, only the output 'arxValue' must be considered. This is an array with 64 elements of type BOOL (1 - 64 coils/inputs). The selection of the bits to be transmitted is determined primarily by the choice of the function code (eFunctionCode), the start address (wStartAddr) and the desired number of coils/inputs ('wNumberOfCoils') in the range 1 - 64. The actual values are available as follows: The first element 'arxValue[0]' contains the state of the coil with the number 'wStartAddress' The second element 'arxValue[1]' contains the state of the coil with the number 'wStartAddress' + 1 The third element 'arxValue[2]' contains the state of the coil with the number 'wStartAddress' + 2, etc. Unused elements of 'arxValue' are set to FALSE. Task: Read the actual value of coil 17 Settings: eFunctionCode: ReadFunctionCodesCoilInput.FC01_ReadCoils wStartAddr = 17 wNumberOfCoils = 1 'arxValue[0]': actual value of coil 17 'arxValue[1]': FALSE 'arxValue[2]': FALSE … 'arxValue[63]': FALSE \
