DI Port Mapping     The ON/OFF status of touch switches etc. on screen of touch panel is directly mapped to DI ports of Fics-IV. PLC No. 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Bit DM0076** Fics-I/O port <DI:02> Fics-I/O port <DI:01> DM0077** Fics-I/O port <DI:04> Fics-I/O port <DI:03> DM0078** Fics-I/O port <DI:06> Fics-I/O port <DI:05> DM0079** Fics-I/O port <DI:08> Fics-I/O port <DI:07> DM0080** Fics-I/O port <DI:10> Fics-I/O port <DI:09> DM0081** Fics-I/O port <DI:12> Fics-I/O port <DI:11> DM0082** Fics-I/O port <DI:14> Fics-I/O port <DI:13> DM0083** Fics-I/O port <DI:16> Fics-I/O port <DI:15> DM0084** Fics-I/O port <DI:18> Fics-I/O port <DI:17> DM0085** Fics-I/O port <DI:20> Fics-I/O port <DI:19> DM0086** Fics-I/O port <DI:22> Fics-I/O port <DI:21> DM0087** Fics-I/O port <DI:24> Fics-I/O port <DI:23> DM0088** Fics-I/O port <DI:26> Fics-I/O port <DI:25> DM0089** Fics-I/O port <DI:28> Fics-I/O port <DI:27> DM0090** Fics-I/O port <DI:30> Fics-I/O port <DI:29> DM0091** Fics-I/O port <DI:32> Fics-I/O port <DI:31> Switches on touch panel and Fics-I/O module (Fics-IOM) share ports <DI:01> - <DI:32>. When either the touch switch is ON, or the hardware DI bit of Fics-I/O module is ON, the corresponding DI bit is ON. Ex. To assign a touch switch for turning ON/OFF bit 1 of Fics-I/O <DI:01> port, simply draw a touch switch on touch panel and specify its PLC No. (Relay No.) as DM007601.           3. DI Monitoring     To monitor the ON/OFF status of DI, use the following DM. For example, to monitor the ON/OFF status of DI:01-1, place a lamp on touch panel and assign the Relay No. of the lamp as DM010801. The DM shown here are only for DI monitoring, not for DI input.

Ex. To display, on touch panel, the ON/OFF status of DO:01-1 (DO channel 01, bit 1), simply draw a lamp and set its PLC No. as DM004401.           5. FLAG01-FLAG96 Variables Mapping     The Fics-IV FLAG variables are mapped to controllers as follows. PLC No. 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Bit DM0300 F16 F15 F14 F13 F12 F11 F10 F09 F08 F07 F06 F05 F04 F03 F02 F01 DM0301 F32 F31 F30 F29 F28 F27 F26 F25 F24 F23 F22 F21 F20 F19 F18 F17 DM0302 F48 F47 F46 F45 F44 F43 F42 F41 F40 F39 F38 F37 F36 F35 F34 F33 DM0303 F64 F63 F62 F61 F60 F59 F58 F57 F56 F55 F54 F53 F52 F51 F50 F49 DM0304 F80 F79 F78 F77 F76 F75 F74 F73 F72 F71 F70 F69 F68 F67 F66 F65 DM0305 F96 F95 F94 F93 F92 F91 F90 F89 F88 F87 F86 F85 F84 F83 F82 F81 The ON/OFF status of the FLAGs can also be set with touch switches on touch panel. To read touch switches status into FLAG, use Fics-IV PT-RD command. To write FLAG status onto TPC screen, use Fics-IV PT-WT command. PT-RD and PT-WT commands can be used in system tasks. Ex. The PLC number of F10 is DM030009           6. VAR01-VAR96 Mapping     The Fics-IV VARiables are mapped to Fics controllers as follows.

Data entered from touch panel is transferred to Fics-IV with "PT-RD" command, and the VAR** data in Fics-IV is transferred to touch panel with "PT-WT" command. Data range should be between -9999999 to 99999999. Note that VARiables are long integers with sign.           7. MON01-MON96 Mapping     The Fics-IV MONitor varables are mapped to Fics controllers as follows.
