hostlink command write outputs

HI
Is it possible to use the hostlink command to control the T100MD 888 outputs directly?
ie:
will WO0055* turn on the output device connected to the output of the T100MD 888 directly?
Thanks

Yes, "WO" command can be used to turn on but it affects all 8 outputs in an 8-bit group. So it is assumed that your host have knowledge over all the 8 outputs and can decide which individual bit to be set and then the whole 8 outputs are sent to the PLC in a single "WO" command.
You can also use "Wb" host link command to control individual output bit if you wish.

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
If the hostlink command contradict the program running in the PLC, who has the priority?
eg: plc program turns on out1 but hostlink command turns off out1, what wil be the result.
Thanks

The output that is controlled by the PLC program will be changed for 1 scan time by the serial command and in the next scan it will be changed back to what the program dictates.
