RemoteElement
Specify the address or tag name of the element in the remote device. This is the source
element of a read instruction or the destination element of a write instruction.
Specify:
RemoteElement := text
RequestedLength
Specify the number of elements to be transferred (0-32,767).
Specify:
RequestedLength := value
ConnectedFlag
Specify whether the CIP generic message requires a connection or not. Enter 1 for
connected; enter 0 for not connected.
Specify:
ConnectedFlag := value
ConnectionPath
Specify the connection path to the other device.
Specify:
ConnectionPath := string
CommTypeCode
Specify the type of communication method.
Enter For this communication method
0 CIP (most messages use CIP communications)
1 DH+
2 CIP with source ID
3 block transfer via universal remote I/O
4 block transfer via ControlNet
Specify:
CommTypeCode := value
Channel
For a DH+ or block transfer message, specify the channel. Enter either A or B.
Specify:
Channel := value
Rack
For a DH+ or block transfer message, enter the rack number (0-77 octal) of the
target device.
Specify:
Rack := value
Group
For a DH+ or block transfer message, enter the group number (0-7) of the target device.
Specify:
Group := value
Slot
For a DH+ or block transfer message, enter the slot number (0-15) of the target device.
Specify:
Slot := value
LocalIndex
Specify the index into the local element, typically 0.
Specify:
LocalIndex := value
RemoteIndex
Specify the index into the remote element, typically 0.
Specify:
RemoteIndex := value
LocalElement
Specify the tag name of the element in the local controller. This is the destination element
of a read instruction or the source element of a write instruction.
Specify:
LocalElement := text
DestinationTag
Specify the tag name of the destination element.
Specify:
DestinationTag := text
SourceLink
If the communication method uses DH+, specify the source link (0-199).
Specify:
DHPlusSourceLink := value
DestinationLink
If the communication method uses DH+, specify the destination link (0-199).
Specify:
DHPlusDestinationLink := value
DestinationNode
If the communication method uses DH+, specify the destination node number (0-77 octal).
Specify:
DHPlusDestinationNode := value
ServiceCode
