General
- uControl supports Structured Text programming
- Up to five tasks can run concurrently.
- 10mSec task loop cycle times or greater
Hardware Descriptor Interface
When importing the Hardware Descriptor File for the uControl model of your choice a set of Global Variables and Configuration Settings will become available in the Device Tree of the project. These will be organized into System Config, Input, Output, and Faults folders.
Configuration Settings
- Follow along with the uControl Technical Reference Manual to help explain configuration options.
- On analog inputs be mindful of which pull up or pull down resistors are used.
- Set Override resistors to TRUE if you need to make any resistor selection changes.
I/O Mapping - Reading/Writing to/from the I/O
- The I/O Mapping tab will provide a list of all the Global Variables available to read or write to.
- Not all variables are needed or used
- Which variables are used depends on the configuration settings
- Each variable has a data type that must be observed
- The names of the variables are usually descriptive enough to explain its function
- See I/O Example projects for specifics on each type of Input or Output
