APPENDIX A - ALLEN BRADLEY PLC
INTRODUCTION
This appendix provides IMEDI01 module information neces-
sary to interface to an Allen Bradley controller (PLC-5E and
higher). Specifically, it describes the label information that
identifies that the EDI module contains the Allen Bradley inter-
face protocol. And it describes function code outputs and spec-
ifications. Refer to
for function code descriptions and
further explanation of function code configuration.
NOTE: This appendix assumes familiarity with Allen Bradley control-
lers. It may be necessary to refer to Allen Bradley documentation for
additional information when defining function code specifications.
PROTOCOL IDENTIFICATION
A label should be affixed to the EDI module that identifies the
interface protocol contained in the module. Additionally, the
IMEDI01 utilities can be run to view the current interface pro-
tocol (i.e., firmware/protocol) installed. Refer to
in Section 6 for the procedures to run the utilities.
The Allen Bradley interface protocol will be identified as:
AB 1.00 (or higher)
