This document contains the setup procedure, data and ladder logic requirements
for successful application of the MVI56-BDW module. Each step in the setup
procedure is defined in order to simplify the use of the module. Go to the
Installing and Configuring the Module
section to begin installing and
configuring the module. Additionally, this document contains a discussion on
configuring the module using the BARDACDW.CFG file. All configuration
information used by the module is stored in this file. Go to the
Configuration File
section to begin setting up this file.
The document also contains a discussion of the data object defined for the
module. This single object completely encapsulates all the data required for
module operation. It is important to understand each element of the object for
proper application of the module. Go to the
Module Data Object
section for the
presentation of the object.
The ladder logic requirement section defines the minimum ladder logic required
to apply the module in a user application. The logic is simple to understand and
implement. Go to the
Ladder Logic
section for a complete discussion of the
ladder logic requirements.
2.1 Installing
and
Configuring the Module
The configuration process consists of the following steps.
1
Download the sample program to the processor.
Note: For most applications, the sample program will work without modification. We strongly
recommend setting up the module first with the sample program, before attempting to add the
module to an existing application or create a custom application.
Modify the module's configuration files to meet the needs of your application, and
copy the updated configuration to the module. Example configuration files are
provided on the CD-ROM. Refer to Modifying the Configuration File (page 32) for
more information on the configuration files.
