Software Configuration Tags
When you create a module, module-defined data types and tags are
created in the RSLogix 5000 programming software. These Tags allow
you to access the Input and Output Data of the module via the
controller’s ladder logic.
The types of tags created vary, depending on which communications
format you choose when creating a module. There are three types
of tags:
• Configuration Data Tags
• Input Data Tags
• Output Data Tags
This appendix lists all the tags of each type, but the tags created by
RSLogix 5000 varies according to the communications format chosen
during initial module configuration.
IMPORTANT
Although this appendix presents the option of
changing a module’s configuration through the Tag
Editor of RSLogix 5000, we suggest that you use the
module’s properties tabs to change configuration
when possible.
