The following communication objects are used to control the "Send value, variable” function:
A + B Receive value
No. | Object name | Function | Datapoint type | Flags |
|---|---|---|---|---|
16 | A + B Receive value | Value | 5.001 percentage (0..100%) 5.010 counter pulses (0..255) 6.010 counter pulses (-128..127) 7.001 pulses 8.001 pulses difference 9.001 temperature (°C) 9.004 lux (Lux) 9.005 speed (m/s) 9.* 2-byte float value 12.001 counter pulses (unsigned) 13.001 counter pulses (signed) 14.056 power (W) | CW |
Function:
This communication object can be used to set a value for variable transmission via the bus, at which sending starts when a push-button is pressed. The current value is stored within the device.
Application example:
In an open-plan office, there are two independent push-buttons that are to be used to set the room temperature (target temperature). Via this communication object, the current setpoint that was set on one of the two push-buttons is passed on to the room temperature controller and the second push-button. At the second push-button, the value serves as a starting value for further settings.
Availability:
The "A + B Receive value” communication object is displayed if the following configurations have been made:
- Parameter "Function channels A + B” on the "device settings” parameter card
- Setting: “Pairwise”
- Parameter "Function channels” on the “functions, objects” parameter card
- Setting: “Send value, variable”
