Placing and Configuring Local I/O

Configuring the Controller’s Response to a Connection Failure

In a DriveLogix5730 system, the controller’s response to a CompactBus
connection failure is dependant on the setting of the individual compact I/O
modules.

Important: The controller’s response to a connection failure of any I/O

module is dependant on the configuration of the I/O modules. If
any I/O module has the "Major Fault On Controller If
Connection Fails While in Run Mode" checkbox selected, the
controller will fault on any I/O fault.

The I/O modules respond to a connection failure by turning off output.

Accessing I/O Data

The programming software displays I/O data as structures of multiple tags
that depend on the specific features of the I/O module. The names of the
data structures are based on the location of the I/O module. The
programming software automatically creates the necessary structures and
tags when you configure the module. Each tag name follows this format:

Location:SlotNumber:Type.MemberName.SubMemberName.Bit

where:

a

hw0817.tif

This address variable:

Is:

Location

Identifies network location
LOCAL = local chassis

SlotNumber

Slot number of I/O module in its chassis

Type
