Configuring the Module

3-11

The maximum interval ensures that the module transmits
messages often enough so that the receiving module(s) can
receive recent data and verify that communications are working
or, if communications are not working, can timeout. The
maximum interval is the value of Parameter 62 - [Peer Out
Time]
multiplied by the value of Parameter 63 - [Peer Out
Skip]
, which has a default of 1.

For example, suppose the minimum interval (Parameter 62 - [Peer
Out Time])
is set to 2.00 seconds, and the desired maximum interval
is 4.00 seconds. Then, the Parameter 63 - [Peer Out Skip] value
would be “2” (2.00 x 2 = 4.00).

5. Set Parameter 61 - [Peer Out Enable] to On (value = 1). The

module will transmit the data selected in Parameters 59 - [Peer A
Output]
and 60 - [Peer B Output] to the network. Another module
must be configured to receive the Peer I/O data.

To set a module to receive Peer-to-Peer data

1. Verify that Parameter 57 - [Peer Inp Enable] is set to Off. This

parameter must be set to Off while you configure the peer input
parameters.

2. In Parameters 52 - [Peer Inp Addr 1] through 55 - [Peer Inp Addr

4], set the IP address of the node from which you want to receive
data. Valid nodes must have 1203-EN1 modules connected to drives
with compatible Logic Command/Status words.
