Verify Changes to a
Channel Configuration

When changing a channel configuration, there is always a delay until
the ladder logic reads the new data word based on the new
configuration. Therefore, it is important to verify that the module
successfully stored the new channel configuration word. The
following example explains how to verify a change to a channel
configuration.

We do this by adding rung 2:3 to the rungs in the previous example.

Program

EXAMPLE

Change the channel configuration word and verify the change
by comparing the resulting status word with the configuration
word for equality.
