Kuka Interbus 1.1 User Manual

6 Configuration
 16 outputs from byte 896 (slave ring)
The master and slave cards create the following image:
The image must be replicated in WorkVisual (>>> Fig. 6-6 ).
To ensure that the structure of the Interbus is read correctly, an offset of 896
must be entered so that the precise addresses of the inputs and outputs are
located at the right place in the image (>>> 6.5.5 "Setting an offset" Page 33).
Alternatively, placeholders can be inserted. Since the creation of the image for
the slave ring only starts at 896 bytes, a corresponding number of placehold-
ers must be inserted. In this case, the placeholder with the 160 inputs/outputs
has been inserted 44 times. Only the device description files “KUKA Proxy”
can be used as placeholders in the master and slave ring.
