To configure a status event exchange:

1. Define the device address for a status event exchange.

Note that the real-time, status event and write data
exchanges with the same exchange number are internally

linked in the ETC2002 to the same device address.

2. Specify the device status register address you wish to be

polled via the exchange.

3. Specify the event mask for bits you wish to be checked for

events.

4. Check the “Polling Enabled” box to activate the exchange.
