Configuring the DeviceNet Software
EDS File Parameter List Configuration
Options (continued)
There are seven types of parameters:
Parameter 1 Controller Access 1X, 10X, 100X
This parameter controls, the format of the data that is retrieved from the controller.
If 1X is chosen the data will be retrieved as a whole number with no implied deci-
mal place. For example, if a process temperature was retrieved and the real value
of the temperature was 225.3927, the temperature would be read as 225 using the
1X register format. If 10X was chosen the raw data would be retrieved as 2253,
requiring the user to add the implied decimal point to show the temperature as
225.3. Similarly, if the data was retrieved in the 100X format the raw data would
be 22539 requiring the user to add the decimal place to display it as 225.39.
Parameter 2 Number of Int. Parameters 0 to 40
This field will display how many integer parameters are retrieved from the con-
troller. This will be either 10 or 20 depending on the position of dip switch 2,
switches 1 and 2.
Parameter 3 Number of Flt Parameters 0 to 10
This field will display how many floating point parameters are retrieved from the
controller. The default is zero and is not normally changed by the user. If your
application requires the use of floating point numbers, please consult with a Conair
representative.
Parameter 4 Dip switch 1 Combination of 1’s and 0’s
This field shows the actual positions of dip switch 1 on the gateway.
Parameter 5 Dip switch 2 Combination of 1’s and 0’s
This field shows the actual positions of dip switch 2 on the gateway.
