FCs

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.2

The following FCs (functions) are available for handling communication via configured connections: AG_SEND / AG_LSEND This function passes the user data from the specified user data area to the Ethernet CP for transmission. AG_RECV / AG_LRECV This function puts the user data received into the user data area specified in the call.

Note

The information given here applies to both AG_SEND and AG_LSEND and AG_RECV and AG_LRECV unless otherwise stated ! The diagram above illustrates this procedure: The user program uses the FCs AG_SEND/ AG_LSEND and AG_RECV / AG LRECV to instruct the Ethernet CP to send or receive data via the configured connection.

Data exchange S7 CPU <-> Ethernet CP

Data is exchanged between CPU and Ethernet CP as dictated by the calls to the FCs AG_SEND and AG_RECV in the CPU program. The Ethernet CP processes the Send and Receive jobs independently of the CPU cycle and the transmission takes a certain amount of time. The interface with the FCs in the user program is synchronized by means of acknowledgements. There are two possibilities: The CPU cycle is faster than the transmission time. The CPU cycle is slower than the transmission time.

CPU Cycle and Transmission Time

SIMATIC rights reserved. NET Industrial Ethernet Siemens AG 1999. All


FC Calls Faster than the Transmission Time

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.3

If an FC is called again in the user program before all the data has been sent or received, the following happens at the FC interface: AG_SEND: No further job is accepted until the transmission of the data on the connection has been acknowledged by the Ethernet station. During this time, the user programm receives the message "job active" until the Ethernet CP can accept the next job on the same connection. AG_RECV: The job is acknowledged with the message no data available yet" if there is no received data on the Ethernet CP. The user program receives this message in the CPU cycle until the Ethernet CP has received all the data on the connection.

FC Calls Slower than the Transmission Time

If an FC is called again after the data has been completely transferred or received, the procedure is as follows at the FC interface: AG_SEND: The job is positively acknowledged. The Ethernet CP is ready to receive a new send job. AG_RECV: The job is acknowledged with New data received when the data has been transferred to the user program. Following this, the FC call can be repeated.

Data Quantities per Job


The Ethernet CP can transfer the following quantities of data per job via a connection

ISO-onTCP UDP TCP 8192 bytes 8192 bytes 2048 bytes 8192 bytes 8192 bytes 2048 bytes

Note:

With TCP you can only use the AG_LSEND and AG_LRECV functions, regardless of the quantity of data to be transferred.

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.5

Alternative data areas

Different data areas in the CPU can be used for communication via configured connections. Your choice of data area depends on the type of CPU and the task involved. The alternatives are: Data block (DB): Data blocks can be used for storing Send/Receive data. Process image: This choice is only possible if continuous Send and Receive areas can be reserved in the process image of the S7 CPU. The capacity may be restricted by the capabilities of the CPU and by the number of central signal modules. Bit memory address area: The bit memory address area can be used, for example, if there is not sufficient space in the process image because of the central signal modules.

Programming the SEND/RECEIVE Interface


Principle of job and data transfer The user program triggers the transfer of the user data areas by means of FC calls and monitors the execution by evaluating the condition code bits returned by the FCs. The parameters assigned to the FCs when they are called include: Connection number (ID); Location of the user data area in the CPU.

Purpose of the FCs Calling FC blocks results in the following action: The user data area is passed to the Ethernet CP or accepted from the Ethernet CP. Positive or negative confirmation of execution of the job is indicated in the status word.

SIMATIC rights reserved. NET Industrial Ethernet Siemens AG 1999. All

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.6

Connections

Program the SEND-RECEIVE interface in the user program as follows: Use the following FCs for transferring data via configured connections: AG_SEND for passing the user data area to the Ethernet CP; AG_RECV for entering the data received from the Ethernet CP into the user data area;

Evaluate the condition codes issued by the FCs: For AG_SEND these are the parameters DONE, ERROR and STATUS, and For AG_RECV the parameters NDR, ERROR and STATUS

Note

You must use the configured connection numbers (IDs) when programming.

We can observe the following: The user program, which can consist of any number of blocks (OBs, FBs or FCs), accesses several connections. The user program can send data via connections by means of AG_SEND calls at any point (event-driven and program-controlled execution). The user program can accept data received via connections by means of AG_RECV calls at any point in the CPU cycle.

Note:

The FCs can be called more than once in one cycle for the same connection.

1. Open the library in the SIMATIC Manager with File >Open > Library. Result: The currently existing libraries are displayed. If the entry SIMATIC NET CP is not present, proceed as follows: 2. Search for the directory Simnetcp in SIEMENS\STEP 7\S7libs\simaticn and select or open the file CP.S7L in it. Result: The library SIMATIC NET CP is now created in the STEP 7 library.

General Notes on the FCs

Specification of the CP address - LADDR parameter - Starting address of module from hardware configuration table - Slot-oriented address assignment for Ethernet CP as for analog modules Specification of the data area in the CPU - Address and length - Max. length 8192 bytes, depending on the type of block used

SIMATIC rights reserved. NET Industrial Ethernet Siemens AG 1999. All

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.10

Specifying the CP Address

When you call an FC, you assign the starting address of the CP module to the LADDR parameter. You can obtain the starting address of the Ethernet CP module from the hardware configuration. The module starting address can be determined from the slot-oriented address assignment for signal modules. The rules for analog modules apply to the Ethernet CP. When the CP is configured with the STEP 7 hardware configuration tool, the starting address of the module appears in the configuration table.

Ascertaining the CP Address

Specifying the Data Area in the CPU FC Output Parameters on CP Startup

When you call an FC you supply it with the address and length of the data area in the CPU. Please note that the maximum length of the data area depends on the type of FC used. On complete restart/restart of the Ethernet CP (e.g. when the switch is operated), the output parameters of the FC are reset as follows:

DONE = 0 NDR = 0 ERROR = 0 STATUS = 8180H for AG_RECV and 8181H for AG_SEND

Siemens AG Training Center

SEND/RECEIVE Interface

Reactions to Incorrect Address Entries

Error CP address indicates a non-existent CP module or digital module. CP address indicates a module with analog I/Os.

Response CPU remains in Stop mode due to a system error.

Possible error codes in STATUS: 8184H System error 80B0H Data record unknown to module. 80C0H Data record cannot be read. 80C3H Resource (memory) occupied. 80D2H Incorrect logical base address.

SIMATIC rights reserved. NET Industrial Ethernet Siemens AG 1999. All

Date: 01.09.1999 File No.: 7E_SRSS.11

If the S7 CPU cannot communicate with the Ethernet CP at the specified module starting address, the result is as shown above. Note: The SIMATIC S7 addresses the Ethernet CP like an analog module. If an incorrect address is specified, this can result in error codes which are not derived from error messages from the FCs themselves.
