The DriveLogix5730 controller can process messages initiated from PLC or
SLC controllers. These messages use data table addresses. In order for these
controllers to access tags within the DriveLogix5730 controller, you map
tags to data table addresses.
Mapping Addresses
The programming software includes a PLC/SLC mapping tool which allows
you to make an existing controller array tag in the local controller available
to PLC-2, PLC-3, PLC-5, or SLC controllers.
To map addresses:
1.
From the Logic menu, select Map PLC/SLC Messages.
