6-10 Troubleshooting the SynchLink Module
Configuration Pop-Up Screen
This pop-up screen provides information on what module service to perform 
and where to perform it. For example, you must use this screen to retrieve 
diagnostic counters (module service) from the 1756-SYNCH module (where 
to perform service).
The configuration portion of a message instruction requires specific 
information in the fields shown above to ensure that the correct service is 
performed at the module. In the case of the 1756-SYNCH module, the most 
common use for a message instruction is to use diagnostic counters to 
recognize a problem on the module so you may correct it.
After correcting the problem, you probably will want to reset the counters for 
future use. Table 6.4 shows the values necessary on the configuration pop-up 
screen to retrieve counter and to reset counters.
