Functionality
The block loads values from a binary file for →retentive variables. Compare LoadRetainData

Recommendation on usage Use the block on<ly once in a →program and at the beginning of the application cycle (= init state). See example below. |

.
See:
-
"Blocks for safe logic" whether this block is supported for developing safety-relevant applications.
-
"Highlighting safe logic in the FBD-editor" for the effects when using the block as a block for safe logic.
Internal error diagnostic for block
The block checks the following error cases:
-
The system service has not been loaded.
-
The return value of the function call equates to an error (return value ≠ value
0
).
In such an error case, the output ENO
of the block is set to value FALSE
(or an equivalent).
Example for usage within ST-editor
The values of the variables that are declared in the section VAR RETAIN ... END_VAR
are loaded in the initial state (= init state) and saved in the term state by using the RTSCycleInfo
block.
Best to see the RTSCycleInfo block to find out at which moments the initial cycle and the term cycle respectively are executed.
