Understanding PLC-5 Controller Data Table Addresses

Because the PLC-5 controller is a 16-bit platform and is used with the
32-bit 20-COMM-C or 20-COMM-Q adapter, the data will be transposed
from the least-significant word (LSW) to the most-significant word (MSW)
in the controller.

When the I/O was configured (

Chapter 4

), two available data table

addresses (N9:0 for input data and N10:0 for output data) were used.

Figure 5.12

shows the data file address structure for this example.

being used in this example.

TIP: When using a drive that has 16-bit Datalinks (PowerFlex 70,
PowerFlex 700, and PowerFlex 700H drives) to transfer a 32-bit parameter,
two contiguous drive Datalink parameters (for example, Data Out A1/A2,
B1/B2, and so forth) are required. To determine if a parameter is a 32-bit
parameter, see the Parameter section in the drive documentation and look
for a

symbol in the ‘No.’ column. (All parameters in PowerFlex 700

Series B drives are 32-bit parameters.) For example, parameter 3 - [Output
Current] in a PowerFlex 70 EC drive is a 32-bit parameter. When using a
drive that has 32-bit Datalinks (PowerFlex 700 VC, PowerFlex 700S, and
PowerFlex 750-Series drives), only one drive Datalink parameter is required
to transfer any parameter.
