Read (FB; Prefix filrd)

FUNCTION_BLOCK Read EXTENDS CBM.ETrigToA

This function block reads the file, which was previously opened via ”FILE.Open”. If less characters can be read than specified in ”szBuffer”, the function block returns an active ”xDone” and indicates the current number of characters in ”szSize”. The size of the target memory structure for the bytes to be read and the number of bytes to be read will not be checked.

If the stability of the pointer on the data structures and their contents cannot be guaranteed in case of an online change, an online change must be avoided.

Input

xExecute

BOOL

Rising edge: Action starts

Falling edge: Resets outputs

If a falling edge occurs before the function block has completed its action, the outputs operate in the usual manner and are only reset if either the action is completed or in the event of an error. In this case, the corresponding output values (xDone, xError) are present at the outputs for exactly one cycle.

ETrigToA

xAbort

BOOL

TRUE: Action is stopped immediately and all outputs are reset to their initial values.

ETrigToA

udiTimeOut

UDINT

Defines the time (µs) after which an FB (e.g. requiring an external acknowledgement) aborts operation due to a timeout with error message.

ETrigToA

Output

xDone

BOOL

TRUE: Action successfully completed

ETrigToA

xBusy

BOOL

TRUE: Function block active

ETrigToA

xError

BOOL

TRUE: Error occurred, function block aborts action

FALSE: No error

ETrigToA

xAborted

BOOL

TRUE : Action aborted by user

ETrigToA

Input

hFile

CAA.HANDLE

File handle

pBuffer

CAA.PVOID

Target address for the first byte to be read; can be retrieved via operator ADR

szBuffer

CAA.SIZE

Maximum number of bytes to be read; can be retrieved via operator sizeof

Output

eError

ERROR

Local library error ID (0: no error; 5101: time out)

szSize

CAA.SIZE

Current number of successfully read bytes; this value is already valid before xDone has been set
