Operands

OperandDescription
Base/SlotThe first operand.
Entries are Hexadecimal data registers or constants.
This is the base and slot number where the positioning module is located.

This location depends on the amount of expansion modules the chassis contains.
If the CPU supports positioning, refer below.
SThe second operand.
Entries are WORD data registers or constants.
This is the set of absolute coordinates.
DThe third operand.
Entries are only WORD data registers.
This is where the result of the operation status is stored.

Assignment Example

The following example shows how to assign values to Base/Slot.

Base/Slot (CM1)

Base NumberSlot Number
H0A0B
Hexadecimal2 Digits in Hexadecimal2 Digits in Hexadecimal
Base NumberSlotExample
Local BaseSlot Number 5H0005 or 5
1st ExpansionSlot Number 3H0103
10th ExpansionSlot Number 7H0A07
14th ExpansionSlot Number 12H0E0C
16th ExpansionSlot Number 10H100A

IMPORTANT: Base Number and Slot Number have specific parameters:

  • Base Number and Slot Number could be different according to the PLC CPU and base type.
  • Base Number:
    • Local base: H00
    • Expansion range: H01 ~ H10
  • Slot Number:
    • Range: H00 ~ H0B

Module/Slot (CM3)

ModuleSlotExample
CPUSlot 0H0000 or 0
1st ExpansionSlot 1H0001 or 1
5th ExpansionSlot 5H0005 or 5
10th ExpansionSlot 10H000A
15th ExpansionSlot 15H000F
PLC-S Mini Modular CPU

If the CPU module is a PLC-S Mini Modular CPU, assign H0000 to Base/Slot.

Notice

Error Flag (F11.0) Notice

The error flag, F11.0, will be ON for one scan when the address of the data register assigned by @D exceeds the range of the data register, D. The range of the data register, D, is dependent on the CPU type.
