3.2 User-Defined Data Types (UDTs)
User-defined data types (UDTs) allow you to organize collections of data types
into groupings. You can use these groupings, or data type structures, to declare
the data types for controller tag structures. Another advantage of defining a UDT
is that you may reuse it in other controller tag structures that use the same data
types.
The Add-On Instruction for the MVI56E-MNETC/MNETCXT module has pre-
defined UDTs. You can find them in the User-Defined subfolder, located in the
Data Types folder in the Controller Organizer pane of the main RSLogix window.
Like the controller tags, the UDTs are organized in a multiple-level tree structure.
3.2.1 MVI56E-MNETC User-Defined Data Types
Eleven different UDTs are defined for the MVI56E-MNETC Add-On Instruction.
The main UDT, MNETCMODULEDEF, contains all the data types for the module
and was used to create the main controller tag structure, MNETC. There are four
UDTs one level below MNETCMODULEDEF. These lower-level UDTs were used
to create the MNETC.DATA, MNETC.CONTROL, MNETC.STATUS, and
MNETC.UTIL controller tag structures.
