In this example, the minimum interval is set to 2.00 seconds (Parameter
42 - [Peer Out Time]), and the maximum interval is set to 4.00 seconds
(2.00 x ‘2’ setting of Parameter 43 - [Peer Out Skip]).
5. Set Parameter 41 - [Peer Out Enable] to ‘1’ (On).
The adapter will transmit the data selected in Parameters 39 - [Peer A
Output] and 40 - [Peer B Output] to the network. Another adapter
must be configured to receive the peer I/O data.
Setting the Adapter to Receive Peer-to-Peer Data
Important: The device receiving peer data must match the data sizes of the
sending device. For example, if the sending device uses a 16-bit
Reference, the receiving device must also use a 16-bit
Reference. Datalinks, if used, must also be the same size.
1. Verify that Parameter 37 - [Peer Inp Enable] is set to ‘0’ (Off).
This parameter must be Off while you configure the peer input
parameters.
2. Set Parameter 35 - [Peer Node to Inp] to the address of the node from
which you want to receive data.
Valid nodes must have 20-COMM-D adapters connected to drives with
compatible Logic Command/Status words.
