PROTOCOL-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
change the “Comm Format”
selection to “Data-INT”. Enter the IP
address of the targeted interface
card.
In the “Connection Parameters”
portion of the dialog box, enter the
following information:
Input: The Input Assembly is the
collection of monitor data that is
produced by the interface card and
is received as an input to the PLC.
Its structure is defined by the
Produced Register Configuration as
described in section
9.2.4. The
Input Assembly Instance must be
set to 150 when connecting to the
generic I/O assembly instances (or
70/71 when using the ODVA AC/DC drive profile), and the size must be set to the number of 16-bit
registers that we wish to receive from the interface card. For the purposes of this example, we are
assuming that the default produced data word configuration, with two relevant registers (100 and
101). We therefore set the Input Size to 2.
Output: The Output Assembly is the collection of command & configuration data that is sent as an
output from the PLC and consumed by the interface card. Its structure is defined by the Consumed
Register Configuration as described in section 9.2.4. The Output Assembly Instance must be set to
