Remote I/O Examples (cont.) Example #3 – PLC 5/20, 5/40, 5/60 and 5/80
This example demonstrates PLC control of an SMC Dialog Plus™
Controller with the Pump Control option. Use of the Option Command
bit to initiate the pump stop maneuver is also shown. Finally, the SMC
fault bit is monitored as a conditional logic input for the block transfer of
the associated fault code stored in the SMC Dialog Plus controller's
Parameter 19, Fault Buffer #1. Many of the selections shown are example-
specific. Some changes by the user may be necessary to apply the
concepts of this example to a specific application.

Note: It is critical that, during the system design phase, each device on
the Remote I/O link is allocated a unique segment of the PLC's I/O
image table. This is accomplished by coordination of the device's
rack address, rack size and starting group address.
