5.8 Configuration Data
This section contains a listing of the parameters and their definitions for the
MVI71-DFNT module configuration.
[Section]/Item Value Range Description
[MODULE] Configuration header for general module
information
Module Name: Up to 80 chars Name of the module for use on reports. Use this
parameter to identify your module in your system.
Read Register
Start:
0 to 3999 This parameter specifies the starting register in the
module where data will be transferred from the
module to the processor. Valid range for this
parameter is 0 to 3999.
Read Register
Count:
0 to 3960 This parameter specifies the number of registers to
be transferred from the module to the processor.
Valid entry for this parameter is 0 to 3960.
Write Register
Start:
0 to 3999 This parameter specifies the starting register in the
module where the data transferred from the
processor will be placed. Valid range for this
parameter is 0 to 3999.
Write Register
Count:
0 to 3960 This parameter specifies the number of registers to
transfer from the processor to the module. Valid
entry for this parameter is 0 to 3960.
Failure Flag Count: 0 to 65535 This parameter specifies the number of successive
transfer errors that must occur before the
communication ports are shut down. If the
parameter is set to 0, the communication ports will
continue to operate under all conditions. If the value
is set larger than 0 (1 to 65535), communications
will cease if the specified number of failures occur.
Initialize Output
Data:
0 or 1 This parameter determines if the output data for the
module should be initialized with values from the
processor. If the value is set to 0, the output data
will be initialized to 0. If the value is set to 1, the
data will be initialized with data from the processor.
Use of this option requires associated ladder logic
to pass the data from the processor to the module.
DFNT Server File
Size
100 or 1000 Sets the maximum file size (100 or 1000) for the
servers
[Section]/Item Value Range Description
[DF1 Pass-Through Server Port 1] Start header for the pass-through server
Enabled: Y or N This parameter determines if the pass-through
server will be utilized.
Server Port
Number:
1 to 65535 Service port number to be associated with this
server. The number assigned must match that used
by the client software to establish the connection.
Busy Timeout: 100 to 65535
milliseconds
This parameter sets the number of milliseconds the
server will wait for the pass-through port to become
available. Valid data range for this parameter is 100
to 65535.
