6 ． EtherNet/IP Settings 6.2. Global variables The Controller treats the data in tag data links as global variables. The contents of global variable settings are shown below. ■Robot Controller input/output area Precautions for Correct Use If the data size of the tag data link for Robot Controller is an odd-numbered byte, use BYTE type to define, do not use BOOL type. Additional Information With Sysmac Studio, two methods can be used to specify an array for a data type. After specifying, (1) is converted to (2), and the data type is always displayed as (2). In this document, the data type is simplified by displaying BOOL[16].
(1)BOOL[16] / (2)ARRAY[0..15] OF BOOL (The example above means a BOOL data type with sixteen array elements.) 11 Network Robot Controller Data size Name Data type publish data assignment (byte) BYTE[488] Output Input area BYTE[488] Input Output area Controller Robot Controller Global variable Array No. to Robot _ [0] 480 bytes ･･･ [479] [480] DIGITAL INPUT 1641 to 1704 (64 points) ･･･ [487] from Robot _ [0] 480 bytes ･･･ [479] [480] DIGITAL OUTPUT 0641 to 0704 (64 points) ･･･ [487]
