CGCM Unit Configuration Chapter 4

Applying the Configuration to the CGCM Unit

The configuration tabs provide a simple way for you to enter and edit CGCM
unit configuration parameters. Changes you make to the configuration are not
always immediately sent to the unit. The configuration data is stored in two
controller tags in the ControlLogix controller, the Configuration tag and the
Unscheduled Write tag.

Refer to

Chapter 6

for details on these data tags.

The Unscheduled Write tag contains the parameters from the Gain tab along
with the Line Drop Voltage Compensation from the Voltage tab. The
Configuration tag contains all other CGCM unit configuration parameters.

Configuration data from the Configuration tag is written automatically to the
CGCM unit only when excitation is not enabled and one of two following
conditions occur:

A connection is first established to the CGCM unit
You change the configuration with the configuration tabs

The Unscheduled Write data tag must be written to the CGCM unit by using a
message instruction in the controller program.

Refer to

Chapter 6

for more information on the program interface for CGCM

unit configuration.
