Connecting the Programmer to the Host
Controller
All DSM314 programming is done through the configuration/programming software
interface, yielding a single point of programming for the module. For more information,
please refer to the Series 90-30 PLC Installation and Hardware Manual (GFK-0356 or later)
or the PACSystems RX3i System Manual (GFK-2314 or later). The programming
environment has several communications options. One communications option is to
connect the programmer directly to the host controller SNP port, as shown in the following
figure. Consult the software documentation for additional communications methods.
The DSM314 Controller is configured using the following programming software:
RX3i
Machine Edition version 4.5 or later
Series 90-30
Machine Edition version 2.1 or later VersaPro version 2.1 or later
Note:
The DSM314 also has a serial port on the module faceplate. This serial port is used only for
updating the DSM314 firmware.
