I/O Variable Description

This table describes the input variables:

Input	Type	Comment
xExecute	BOOL	On detection of a rising edge, starts the function block execution. On detection of a falling edge, resets the outputs of the function block when any on-going execution terminates.
sCmd	STRING	SD card script command syntax. Simultaneous command executions are not allowed: if a command is being executed from another function block or from an SD card script then the function block queues the command and does not execute it immediately. NOTE: An SD card script executed from an SD card is considered as being executed until the SD card has been removed.
