Emulate 500 Instruction Exceptions.

Question
Emulate 500 Instruction exceptions
Answer
Emulate 500 Instruction Exceptions
There are several instructions that RSLogix Emulate will not emulate.
These are listed in the table below:
BTR
There is no real I/O to read. The software will not emulate the actual transfer of data,
but the enable (.EN) and done (.DN) bits are emulated.When a BTR is "executed,"
the enable bit is set during the first scan, then the done bit is set during the second scan.
If you wish, you may use debug files to emulate the data transfer.
BTW
There is no real I/O to read. The software will not emulate the actual transfer of data,
but the enable (.EN) and done (.DN) bits are emulated.When a BTW is "executed,"
the enable bit is set during the first scan, then the done bit is set during the second scan.
If you wish, you may use debug files to emulate the data transfer.
COR
The COR instruction passes parameters to a Custom Application Routine (CAR) file.
CAR files are not emulated in any way. The instruction is not executed.

Email Answer
IID
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to generate an interrupt, therefore this instruction has no effect.
IIE
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to generate an interrupt, therefore this instruction has no effect.
IIM
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to update, therefore this instruction has no effect.
IIN
There is no I/O image table to update in the software.
The instruction is not executed.
INT
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to trigger an interrupt, therefore this instruction has no effect.
IOM
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to update, therefore this instruction has no effect.
IOT
There is no I/O image table to update in the software.
The instruction is not executed.
MSG
Even though the software provides Data Highway Plus emulation and Channel 0 emulation,
the MSG instruction is not fully emulated.
When an MSG is "executed", the enable (.EN) bit is set during the first scan,
and the done (.DN) bit is set during the second scan.
If you wish, you may use debug files to emulate the data transfer.

PID
The software does not attempt to execute the PID instruction or change any of the PID control bits or words.
REF
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to refresh, therefore this instruction has no effect.
RPI
(SLC 500 only)
There is no I/O to generate an interrupt, therefore this instruction has no effect.
SVC
(SLC 500, MicroLogix 1200 and 1500)
There are no processor communications to service, therefore this instruction has no effect.
PTO
(MicroLogix 1200 and 1500 only)
There are no outputs. The instruction is not executed.
PWM
(MicroLogix 1200 and 1500 only)
There are no outputs. The instruction is not executed.
DLG
(MicroLogix 1500 only)
The data logging function is not emulated. The instruction is not executed.
