Use the message instruction (MSG) to transfer configuration data between
the PLC and the Color CVIM. The message instruction can transfer up to
10,000 elements of data/commands. When used for Pyramid Integrator
backplane instructions, the message instruction commands the resource
manager module to transfer data between two module addresses. Use the
RS–232 ASCII command set in the external data table address field to
perform the desired function. To read a configuration of a Color CVIM with
a thumbwheel setting of #2 into the Resource Manager long integer file #9
starting at element 0, the message instruction parameters would be entered as
follows:
F1 Requested size:
0
F2 Priority:
NORMAL
F3 Local/Remote:
LOCAL
F4 Local Link Type:

F5 REM Link Type
