Communications Overview

Publication 2711-6.0

The DH+ PanelView terminals communicate with a PLC or SLC
5/04 controller on the Allen-Bradley DH+ link.

Addressing for a DH+ application is similar to a DH-485 application
except the DH+ link supports 64 nodes (0 - 77 octal) and higher baud
rates. The DH-485 link supports 32 nodes.

The DH+ parameters for the terminal and controller are defined in
the Communication Setup dialog (accessed from Terminal Setup
dialog).

Terminal Name is stored in
Project with Catalog Number
information.
