<strong>Configuring</strong> Global Data <strong>Communication</strong><br />

13.6 Global Data Transmission Using System Functions<br />

Event-driven data transmission is supported for S7-400 CPUs. A comm<strong>and</strong> from<br />

the system functions (SFC) in the user program determines when the data<br />

exchange occurs. SFC60 "GD_SND" (send global data) is available to send global<br />

data <strong>and</strong> SFC61 "GD_RCV" (receive global data) is available to receive global<br />

data. If the CPU supports event-driven data transmission, you must enter the scan<br />

rate "0" in the global data table. If a value greater than "0" is entered, global data<br />

transmission is cyclic <strong>and</strong> event-driven.<br />
