Configuring Individual Field Control Modules
Go to the Field Control configuration menu:
F 1 : G E N I U S C O N F I G
F 2 : M o d u l e C o n f i g
F 2 : P r e v i o u s M e n u
From this menu, press F2 to configure the
individual modules in the station.
Disable the I/O Scan
While you configure the modules in the station,
you may want to disable I/O scanning. (The Bus
Interface Unit or Field Processor begins scanning
I/O as soon as it is powered up).
I O S c a n
D I S A B L E D *
P r v > t g l e n t r
When the I/O scan is disabled, previously
unconfigured module inputs and outputs default
to 0. For previously-configured modules, inputs
and outputs either default or hold their last state
or value, as configured.
1. If you want to change the present selection,
press F3 (tgl).
2. Press F4 (entr). If you want to go to the next
screen without changing the selection, press F2
( > ).
Configure Data Addresses and Lengths
The next screens are used to assign the starting
addresses and lengths for I, then Q, then AI, then
AQ data.
If the host is a Series 90 PLC, these should
correspond to the memory assignments made for
the BIU or Field Processor during PLC configuration.
If the host is a Series Six or Series Five PLC, only
the length selected here is used; the entry made
on the starting address screen is not used by the
PLC. For those PLC types, the starting address was
assigned on an earlier screen.
1. For each data type, enter a starting address for
discrete input data (I). For example:
< > e n t r
Blk Map Start 1
IOOOO1
2. Press F4 to accept the value. Then, enter a
length in bits for I data. For example:
B l k M a p L n g t h
6 4
< > e n t r
3. Press F4 (entr) to accept the value.
4. Continue as above, entering starting addresses
and lengths for the other data types.
The lengths entered must not add up to more
than 128 bytes of inputs (discrete + analog)
and 128 bytes of outputs (discrete + analog).
5. Press F1 ( > ) after entering the length for AQ
data (the fourth data type).
If you changed any starting address or length
entries, the HHM displays this screen:
M a p h a s c h a n g e d
A c c e p t ?
n o y e s
6. To accept the changes and continue to the next
menu, press F4 (yes).
