3.1 CONFIGURATION / FIELDBUS CONFIG
Both Cyclic and Acyclic communications with the PLC are supported. The Cyclic data must
be configured in both the PLX and the PLC. Cyclic data is limited to a maximum of nine Input
WORDs (to PLC) and nine Output WORDs (from PLC).
The FIELDBUS CONFIG menu establishes connections
between the PL/X PINs and the PL/X FIELDBUS port:
•
JUMPERS 1 - 8 use

s (1 word each) to

transmitter.
•
JUMPERS 9 - 16 use

the target PINs to the PL/X FIELDBUS receiver.

NOTE
: If exchanging to a different protocol Anybus

require remapping.
Changes to the Fieldbus Configuration require the
PLX to be power cycled to become operative.
Providing FIELDBUS configuration on the PLX rather than relying on the host system can
provide the following advantages:
•
Any PL/X parameter is available for selection as a source by each of eight

•
Reconfigure the FIELDBUS for any PL/X without stopping the Master or other PL/Xs.
•
The PL/X holds the FIELDBUS configuration within the drive and also in the parameter
exchange file. It is possible to save three FIELDBUS configurations in each PL/X by
using the three Recipe pages.
