Using the Human Interface Module (HIM)
Removing a Link
You may remove an output link by setting it’s parameter address value
to zero. The procedure for changing a parameter link discussed above
may be used for this purpose if the parameter address value is
changed to zero. Note that the displayed value will be 12 since 0 is a
reserved parameter.
Using DriveExplorer
The functionality available on the HIM module is also available on the
Windows compatible Allen-Bradley software program called
DriveExplorer. A desktop, laptop or handheld PC can be connected to
the SCANport connector via the Serial to SCANport adapter (catalog
number 1203-SSS). The additional power of a Windows PC
significantly simplifies the 8720MC configuration task. For details refer
to the DriveExplorer Getting Results Manual (publication
9306-GR001x-EN-E).
ATTENTION
!
Be careful when removing links. If the source
parameter has already written a value to the
destination parameter, the destination
parameter retains the value until you explicitly
remove it. For some parameters, this may
produce undesirable results.
