9.6.11 Read parameter data
This secon describes the request and response for the acyclic reading of a parameter.
Details
•
When a read request is processed, no parameter value is wrien to the slave.
•
When a read request is transmied by mul-parameters, the parameter aribute, index
and subindex are repeated.
•
A read request must not exceed the maximum data length of 240 bytes.
Request header
Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3 Byte 4
Request reference Request idencaon Axis Number of indices
Field Data type Values
Request reference U8 This value is dened by the master.
Request idencaon U8 0x01: Request parameters for reading.
Axis U8 0x00 or 0x01
Number of indices U8 0x"n" (n = number of parameters requested)
Parameter aribute
Byte 5 Byte 6
Aribute Number of subindices
Field Data type Values
Aribute U8 0x10: Value
Number of subindices U8 0x00
Index and subindex
Byte 7 Byte 8 Byte 9 Byte 10
Index Subindex
HIGH byte LOW byte HIGH byte LOW byte
Field Data type Values
Index U16 0x0001 ... 0xFFFF (1 ... 65535)
Subindex U16 0x0000 ... 0x00FF (0 ... 255)
Response to a correctly executed read request
Responses to a read request do not contain parameter aributes, indices and subindices.
Response header
Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3 Byte 4
Request reference
(mirrored)
Response idencaon Axis
(mirrored)
Number of indices
Field Data type Values
Request reference U8 Mirrored value of the parameter request.
Response idencaon U8 0x01: Parameter has been read.
Axis U8 0x00 or 0x01
Number of indices U8 0x"n" (n = number of parameters requested)
