AN-X-GENI
January 2008
ClxName
The first line in the file identifies the AN-X module. AN-X uses this
name in the address portion of the ControlLogix tags for the Genius data.
The ClxName consists of a line with the keyword ClxName, followed by
a comma and the name you gave the emulated ENBT (see page 31)
Example:
ClxName, AnxGeniMas
ClxPrefix
The ClxPrefix is used in the tagnames AN-X creates for import into
RSLogix 5000. AN-X prefixes each tagname with the ClxPrefix. The
ClxPrefix can be used to distinguish tags for the same Genius serial bus
address on different Genius networks when the ControlLogix processor
has connections to more than one AN-X-GENI.
For example, if the ControlLogix has connections to two AN-X-GENI
modules, each controlling a different Genius network, each Genius
network could have a block with the same serial bus address. Using a
different ClxPrefix in the configuration file for each AN-X-GENI makes
the tags for the two AN-X modules distinct.
The ClxPrefix consists of a line with the keyword ClxPrefix, followed by
a comma and the prefix text.
Example:
ClxPrefix,GENI1_
Scheduled Connections
Each scheduled connection to the AN-X begins with a line that consists
of the keyword ClxSlot followed by a comma and then a number from 0
to 15
Example:
ClxSlot, 0
Each scheduled connection consists of output data and input data.
The section that defines the scheduled outputs from the ControlLogix
processor for that connection begin with a line with just the keyword
DataOutput.
The section that defines the scheduled inputs to the ControlLogix
processor for that connection begin with a line with just the keyword
DataInput.
