In this chapter, you learned how to program your programmable controller and you were given sample programs for each family of controllers. For additional programs, refer to Appendix B.In this chapter you will read how to configure your module’s hardware, condition your inputs and enter your data. You must configure your module to conform to the input device and specific application that you have chosen. Data is conditioned through a group of data table words that are transferred to the module using a block transfer write (BTW) instruction.
You can configure the following features
for the 1771-VHSC module: • type of input • data format • preset values • rollover values Configure your module for its intended operation by means of your programming terminal and write block transfers. Note: Programmable controllers that use 6200 software (release 4.2 or higher) programming tools can take advantage of the IOCONFIG Addendum utility to configure this module. IOCONFIG Addendum uses menu–based screens for configuration without having to set individual bits in particular locations. Refer to your 6200 software literature for details.
mportant:
It is strongly recommended that you use IOCONFIG Addendum to configure this module. The IOCONFIG Addendum utility greatly simplifies configuration. If the IOCONFIG Addendum is not available, you must enter data directly into the data table. Use this chapter as a reference when performing this task. During normal operation, the processor transfers from 1 to 64 words to the module when you program a BTW instruction to the module’s address.
