Using Explicit Messaging Chapter 6

The following table identifies the data that is required in each box to configure a
message to read multiple parameters.

MicroLogix 1100/1400 Controller Example Scattered Read Request Data

In this message example, we use the data table addresses in

Figure 71

or

Figure 71

to store the request values to be read from these drive parameters.

See

DPI Parameter Object on page 198

(Class code 0x93) for parameter

numbering.

IP address of the adapter connected to the drive.

(1) The default setting for Service is ‘Custom’, enabling entry of a Service Code not available from the Service pull-down menu. When

choosing a Service other than ‘Custom’ from the pull-down menu, an appropriate Hex. value is automatically assigned to the
Service Code box which is dimmed (unavailable).

(2) In this example, we are reading five parameters. Each parameter being read requires three contiguous 16-bit words. Scattered

read messages always assume that every parameter being read is a 32-bit parameter, regardless of its actual size. Therefore, the
Size in Bytes must be set to 30. The data structure format is the same as shown on

page 141

. Maximum length is 66 words (132

bytes), which equates to 22 parameters. For parameter numbering, see

DPI Parameter Object on page 198

(Class code 0x93).

(3) See

Table 17 on page 106

for limitations of PowerFlex 7-Class drives when using DPI Parameter Object Class code 0x93 for explicit

messaging.
