Output Table Overview

To configure the module, you send commands via the PLC output table.

The 1769 module uses 32 16-bit INT words in and out. Only 5 words of the output table
are normally used. (Command 0X5E uses ten and 0X5F uses seven and 0x62 uses 9.)

Parameters can be read (READPARAM) or written (WRITEPARAM) one at a time:

 To read a parameter, put the readparam command number in word 0, the format

word in word 1, and the parameter’s ID number in word 4 of the output table.

 To write a parameter, put the writeparam command number in word 0, the

format word in word 1, and the parameter’s value in words 2 and 3, and the
parameter ‘s number in word 4 of the output table.

Saves all parameters (including calibration constants) to
the non-volatile memory. Error Return Values: None

MANUALCMD

Stop, go straight to IDLE mode

CLEARALARMS

0x7

RELOADNONVOL
ATILE

0x10

Causes the module to re-read the values stored in its non-
volatile memory. Parameters changed since the last write
non-volatile command are overwritten. Can be used to
abort a calibration or parameter entry session. No error
return values.

RATE_CAL_5_P
OINTS_DEFINED

0x5E

Runs the 5-point rate calibration at percentage outputs
defined at words 5-9. The percentages have 0 decimal
places. They must be > 0, < 100, and in ascending order,
with a minimum of 10 between them.

RATE_CAL_2_P
OINTS_DEFINED

0x5F

Runs the 2-point rate calibration at percentage outputs
defined at words 5-6. The percentages have 0 decimal
places, and must be > 0, < 100, and in ascending order,
with a minimum of 10 between them. This calibration
operates at points 2 and 4 of a 5-point rate calibration. The
other points are filled with data based on these 2 points.
