RSLogix5000 Software – Message Setup Using CIP Generic
The following example shows how to set up your message instruction
to read or write to a data table in the power monitor using a CIP
Generic message type for RSLogix5000 software. This setup applies to
ControlLogix and CompactLogix programmable logic controllers. The
CIP Generic message type does not support single element reads or
writes. In this example, we are reading the Voltage, Amps, and
Frequency data table from the power monitor.
