Introduction
1.1.
About this product
The SlotServer Instruction Manual provides the information necessary to configure the
SlotServer, allowing an Allen Bradley ControlLogix platform to pass data between a
ControlLogix CPU and other third party communications protocols supported by the
SlotServer.
The SlotServer uses implicit communications between the CPU and the
SlotServer and is consequently treated as an I/O Server in RSLogix.
The SlotServer Instruction Manual covers information for installing the SlotServer, and
configuring the module to transfer data with the CPU on the ControlLogix Rack. Depending
on the SlotServer Module ordered, supplementary driver manuals are provided for
information on how to configure the third party protocols residing in the SlotServer.
1.2.
About LonWorks and Profiling
Inherent to the design of LonWorks is the intention that all nodes residing on a LonWorks
network possess a profile which accurately describes the network variables available to the
LonWorks network. This profile is declared to the LonWorks network by means of an
External Interface File (XIF). This XIF remains unchanged for any particular profile. In other
words, a change in the XIF is by definition a new profile.
The Open Interface profile for SlotServer provides a generic list of SNVT’s that can be used
to bind the most common LonWorks data types to the SlotServer for data transfer. This
document describes the fixed Open Interface profile for the SlotServer. However, as a
LonMark compatible product, the SlotServer platform is also capable of supporting other
profiles. For further information, please contact FieldServer Technologies and enquire
about available Specific Profiles and other SlotServer Profiling Services.
