SLC File Types
File Type Description
S Status
B Bit
T Timer
C Counter
R Control
N Integer
F Floating-point
Z String
A ASCII
The File Type Command Code is the ASCII character code value of the File Type
letter. This is the value to enter into the "File Type" parameter of the DF1
Command configurations in the data tables in the ladder logic.
Additionally, the SLC specific functions (502, 510 and 511) support a sub-
element field. This field selects a sub-element field in a complex data table. For
example, to obtain the current accumulated value for a counter or timer, the sub-
element field should be set to 2.
ControlLogix Processor Specifics
This section contains information specific to the ControlLogix processor when
used with the DF1 command set. The current implementation of the DF1
command set does not use functions that can directly interface with the
ControlLogix Tag Database. In order to interface with this database, the table-
mapping feature provided by RSLogix 5000 must be used. The software permits
the assignment of ControlLogix Tag Arrays to virtual PLC 5 data tables. The
ProSoft module using the PLC 5 command set defined in this document can then
reach this controller data.
5.7.6 Server Driver
The Server Driver allows the 6202-WA-DFNT-DFCM3 module to respond to data
read and write commands issued by clients on the DFCM network using explicit
messaging.
The DFNT module supports server functionality using the reserved ControlNet
service port 0xAF12. Services supported in the module permit client applications
(that is, RSView, processors, and RSLinx) to read from and write to the module's
database. This section discusses the requirements for attaching to the module
using several client applications.
