Chapter 6
Ladder Programming Examples
6–5
When executing a dynamic channel configuration change, there will always
be a delay from the time the ladder program makes the change to the time the
RTD module gives you a data word using that new configuration
information. Therefore, it is very important to verify that a dynamic channel
configuration change took effect in the RTD module, particularly if the
channel being dynamically configured is used for control. Figure 6.6,
explains how to verify that channel configuration changes have taken effect.
Example – Execute a dynamic configuration change to channel 2 of the
RTD module located in slot 3 of a 1746 chassis, and set an internal “data
valid” bit when the new configuration has taken effect.
