6.3 Configuring the Scanner with RSLogix
500
When you program your SLC system in RSLogix 500, use the following
steps to set up the scanner:
1. Create a new file or load an existing file.
2. Open the I/O Configuration editor.
3. Select the proper rack for your setup.
4. Highlight the slot where the AS-i scanner is installed.
5. Select Other from the list of available cards.
6. Enter an ID number of
13635
.
7. Right click on the newly configured slot and select Adv. Config.
8. Set scanned input words and scanned output words to 32.
9. Set M0 and M1 lengths to 40 words.
Refer to section 7.3 for additional information on the M files.
10. Set G file size to 64 words.
11. Select Edit G file Data and edit the G file to match your network
configuration.
Refer to section 7.1 for details on G file setup.
12. When finished G file edits, click OK for G file editor and click OK
for Adv. Config.
13. Select a standard module to add in a spare slot in the I/O
Configuration window (example: 1746-I*8). Delete the module
you just added. Save the project.
This step must be completed to work around a problem in all
current versions of RSLogix. This unexpected behavior causes
corrupt G files to load into the SLC. This step ensures you can
properly use G files with modules of type “Other”.
14. Close the I/O Configuration window.
