Generating a Logix .L5X File
The PLX50 Configuration Utility will generate the required UDTs and Routines (based on the
ILX56-PBS configuration) to map the required PROFIBUS Slave input and output data.
The user will need to generate the required Logix and UDTs by right-clicking on the module in
the PLX50 Configuration Utility and selecting the
Generate Logix L5X
option.
NOTE:
The user will need to ensure that the Logix Base Tag is correct for the
generated Logix L5X code to work. The base tag will be the tag name for the
module input and output assemblies in the Logix controller owning the module.
Local Rack Module Location
If the ILX56-PBS is in the same local rack as the Logix controller owning it, the Logix Base
Tag will be
Local:xx
(where xx is the slot number of the module). Below is an example where
the ILX56-PBS is in slot 1 of the local rack.
