Device addresses are memory on the MICRO/I and external devices that can store values in bit or word units.
By setting device addresses to parts and functions, you can control the screen display and operation of parts.
Device addresses are specified by combining the device type and address number in the following formats.
The device address can be directly entered or it can be set with the Tag Editor.
●
Direct entry
Enter a device address with the keyboard following the basic format.
To enter the bit (0 to 15) for a word device, enter the address number, the bit number separator “.” or “-”, and the bit.
You can enter the address with either separator, but it is displayed according to the Bit Number Symbol setting. Bit
Number Symbol is set on the General tab of the WindO/I-NV4 Options dialog box.
