4.3.21 ETHERNET/IP OPTION (Cont.)
TABLE ENTRY
The normal text entry techniques can be used to enter parameters into the Input table. The following
syntax must be used, or an error message will be generated when ‘Apply’ is operated and the confi gura-
tion will remain unchanged:
Notes:
1. The syntax is not case sensitive; for example, it may be ‘Channel’, or ‘channel’ or ‘CHANNEL’.
2. Channels 1 to 18 (small frame) and 1 to 48 (large frame), may be confi gured as measuring chan-
nels or as Ethernet/IP comms input channels. The remaining channels, up to 100, must be con-
fi gured as Ethernet/IP Comms input channels. For channels 76 to 100, only ‘pv’ is supported.
Channel.n.pv
Channel ‘n’ process value where ‘n’ = 1 to 100 - see note 2 above.
Channel.n.status
Channel ‘n’ status, where ‘n’ = 1 to 75 - see note 2 above.
Channel.n.spanhi The Span High value for channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 75 - see note 2 above.
Channel.n.spanlo The Span Low value for channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 75 - see note 2 above.
Channel.n.dp
Number of decimal places for channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 75 - see note 2 above.
Math.n.pv
Maths channel ‘n’ process value where ‘n’ = 1 to 100.
Math.n.status
Maths channel ‘n’ status, where ‘n’ = 1 to 100.
Math.n.spanhi
The Span High value for maths channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 100.
Math.n.spanlo
The Span Low value for maths channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 100.
Math.n.dp
Number of decimal places for maths channel ‘n’, where ‘n’ = 1 to 100.
ERROR MESSAGES
If an error is made during editing, a brief description of the error can be viewed by operating the ‘Show
Errors’ key:
?Out of Range
this means that the channel or maths number is greater than the maximum given in
the description above (e.g. channel 101)
?Syntax Error
There is an error in capitalisation, or commas have been used instead of full stops
(periods) or some other text error has been made.
?Unsupported Data A suffi x implying a data type which is not supported by this implementation of Ether-
Net/IP has been appended. (Example: Channel.4.alm).
If the ‘Apply’ key is operated whilst there are uncorrected errors, a message appears showing the
number of fi rst input in which a fault has been found. The user must correct the fault and operate ‘Apply’
again in order to save the confi guration. If there are further errors, the message reappears showing in
which input the next error lies (Input two in the fi gure below).
Figure 4.3.21b Error message
Note: The ‘Show Errors’ key allows the user to view all current confi guration errors at the same
time. In this display, each valid parameter displays its associated Modbus address, but any error
channels display an error message instead.
