The PLC can read the value value by polling for the tag names
“EIPS_Connection_Status”, “IED_Node_Status”, or “Module_Driver_Status”
using a Class 3 MSG instruction as shown below (in RSLogix 5000).
The “Destination Element” of the RSLogix 5000 MSG instruction should be of
data type SINT.
Alternatively, you can configure a MSG instruction to poll for Class 0x300
Instance 0x01 and Attribute (as listed in the Class 3 MSGs tab). Below is a
sample MSG configuration using Class, Instance, Attribute messaging.
Again, the D ESTINATION E LEMENT should be of data type SINT, and must contain
enough members based on the size of the data to obtain from the gateway.
