ADAM-6000 Series User Manual 94
We have mentioned that there are two methods to transfer data from the
ADAM-6000 (source) to the target device (destination): Period Time
function or Period Time function + C.O.S. function. You can choose
these two methods by click the Deviation Enable check box (for AI
modules) or Enable Change of State check box (for digital modules).
If this check box is not checked, the transfer method is Period Time
function. The period to transfer data from source to destination is defined
by the Period time numeric control in the Basic (One to One) area.
If the check box is checked, the transfer method becomes Period Time
function + C.O.S. function. You can define the deviation for analog
input by the Deviation Rate numeric control (value is percentage unit
and represent the change value divided by the total range).
For Period Time function + C.O.S function, the data will be transferred
from source to destination periodically. Besides, when the analog input
value change is greater than what the Deviation Rate defined or the digi-
tal input channel value changes, the data will also update from source to
destination automatically.
By default, all input channels of the source module will all be mapping to
all output channels of the destination module. However, you can manu-
ally define which input channels are mapping to output channels, by
clicking the Modify channel enable check box. When this check box is
checked, you can select which input channels will be mapping to the cor-
responding output channels by click related Channel check box. Refer to
Figure 5.22 below. In this example, only the value of input channels 0, 1,
2, 3 of the source module will update to the output channels 0, 1, 2, 3 of
the destination module. After you have selected the channel, click the
Apply list button to download this configuration to the source module.
You can save current mapping relation into a configuration file in your
computer by clicking the Save button. You also can load previous map-
ping configuration file by clicking the Load button. If you click the
Refresh button, the current mapping configuration on the source module
will be displayed in the Channel-Enable table. (The area enclosed by the
red square in Figure 5.22)
