Output Module Formats
The table describes the communication formats used with analog
output modules.
Modify Default
Configuration
for Input Modules RSLogix 5000 programming software automatically creates module-defined
data types and tags when a module is created. This section describes how to
modify the default configuration for input modules.
Data types symbolically name module configuration, input and output data.
Tags let you provide each a unique name, such as where the user-defined data
type and slot reside on the controller. This information is used to
communicate data between the controller and module.
Follow these steps to modify a default configuration.
1. On the New Module dialog box, make sure Open Module Properties is
checked.
2. Click OK.
Output Module Communication Formats
If you want the output module return this data Choose this
communications format
Floating point output data Float data
Integer output data Integer data
Floating point output data and receives data echo values with a CST timestamp value CST timestamped float data
Integer output data and receives data echo values with a CST timestamp value CST timestamped integer data
Specific input data that is used by a controller that does not own the output module
These choices have the same definition as the similarly-named options above except that they
represent listen-only connections between the analog output module and a listen-only controller
Listen only float data
Listen only integer data
Listen only CST timestamped
float data
Listen only CST timestamped
integer data
