Y_ReadStringParameter

This Function Block returns the string value of an axis-specific parameter.

Refer to parameters with STRING Data Type in the Axis Parameter List. The two parameters available are .AmplifierModel (1819) and MotorModel (1823)

Parameters

*	Parameter	Data Type	Description	Default
VAR_IN_OUT
B	Axis	AXIS_REF	Logical axis reference. This value can be located on the Configuration tab in the Hardware Configuration (logical axis number).
VAR_INPUT
B	Execute	BOOL	Upon the rising edge, all other function block inputs are read and the function is initiated. To modify an input, change the value and re-trigger the execute input.	FALSE
V	ParameterNumber	UINT	Controller parameter number. Refer to parameters with STRING Data Type in the Axis Parameter List.	UINT#0
VAR_OUTPUT
B	Done	BOOL	Set high when the commanded action has completed successfully. If another block takes control before the action is completed, the Done output will not be set. This output is reset when Execute goes low.
B	Busy	BOOL	Set high upon the rising edge of the Execute input, and reset when Done, CommandAborted, or Error is true. In the case of a function block with an Enable input, a Busy output indicates the function is operating, but not ready to provide Valid information. (No Error)
B	Error	BOOL	Set high if an error has occurred during the execution of the function block. This output is cleared when 'Execute' or 'Enable' goes low.
E	ErrorID	UINT	If Error is true, this output provides the Error ID. This output is reset when 'Execute' or 'Enable' goes low.
V	Value	STRING	Value of the parameter.

Notes

Refer to parameters with STRING Data Type in the Axis Parameter List.
