The second part of the Bridge routing map setup is to map the DF1 request received by the
Logix controller to a Logix tag. This must be done in Rockwell Automation’s RSLogix 5000.
Refer to the additional information section in this document for further information regarding
mapping of PLC/SLC messages in the Logix controller. Open the mapping table in RSLogix 5000
by selecting Map PLC/SLC Messages from the Logic menu item in the menu bar. You must
enter the requested file number and Logix tag name pair to ensure that the read or write
request is routed to the correct Logix tag. Below is an example of the RSLogix 5000 PLC5/SLC
mapping.

NOTE: It is your responsibility to ensure that the Logix tag array datatype and
size matches that of the DF1 File Number. Failing to do this can result in
communication faults.
