6.4 EGD Produced Exchange Configuration
To configure EGD Produced Exchanges, open the Ethernet Global Data Configuration dialog
(Figure 6.1) as described in Section 6.3, and select the Produced Exchanges tab, where:
1. In the upper window, one or more Produced Exchanges can be created (Section 6.4.1).
2. In the lower window, I/O Blocks can be defined for each Produced Exchange (Section 6.4.2).
When creating a Produced Exchange, the application programmer selects an Exchange Number
for it, determines whether the Exchange will be sent to a specific Consumer or to a Group of
Consumers, chooses which Consumer or Group of Consumers will receive the Exchange, and
sets how often the Exchange will be sent to the EGD network.
