Operands

OperandDescription
Base/SlotThe first operand.
Entries are Hexadecimal data registers or constants.
This is the base and slot number where the positioning module is located.

This location depends on the amount of expansion modules the chassis contains.
If the CPU supports positioning, refer below.
SThe second operand.
Entries are WORD data registers or constants.
This is where the control data is stored.

The value range is 0 ~ 2.
DThe third operand.
Entries are only WORD data registers.
This is where the result of the operation status is stored.

Assignment Example

The following example shows how to assign values to Base/Slot.

Module/Slot (PLC-AES/ES)

ModuleSlotExample
CPUSlot 0H0000 or 0
1st ExpansionSlot 1H0001 or 1
5th ExpansionSlot 5H0005 or 5
10th ExpansionSlot 10H000A
15th ExpansionSlot 15H000F

PLC-AES/ES CPU

If the CPU module is a PLC-AES or PLC-ES CPU, assign H0000 to Base/Slot.

S

Value of SDescription
0Initializes both parameters and positioning data in flash memory.
1Initializes only parameters in flash memory.
2Initializes only positioning data in flash memory.

D Data Register Result

Result TypeBitsDescription
Error CodeH00No error
Error CodeH10Incorrect positioning control data
Error CodeHFFInstruction not supported
Operation StatusBit 01 when the instruction executes
Operation StatusBit 11 when instruction execution finishes
Operation StatusBit 21 when an error occurs
Simultaneously sets with Bit 1
Operation StatusBit 3 ~ 7Reserved

Notice

Error Flag (F11.0) Notice

The error flag, F11.0, will be ON for one scan when the address of the data register assigned by @D exceeds the range of the data register, D. The range of the data register, D, is dependent on the CPU type.

Execution Condition

It is recommended that the PINIT instruction be used with a pulse contact as an execution condition.

Ladder Diagram Examples

PINIT

The PINIT instruction initializes positioning parameters and/or positioning data for flash memory and saves the result in an assigned WORD data regist

The PINIT instruction initializes positioning parameters and/or positioning data for flash memory and saves the result in an assigned WORD data register, D.

When the contact, M1.6 or M1.7, is powered ON (1), the PINIT instruction initializes the positioning data and/or parameters for flash memory.

When the contact, M1.6 or M1.7, is powered ON (1), the PINIT instruction initializes the positioning data and/or parameters for flash memory.

The result of the initialization is saved in the data register, M1460.

The result of the initialization is saved in the data register, M1460.
