Saving Configurations
To save a configuration to your computer, select
File/Save
or
File/Save As.
Aliases
The configuration tool exports aliases for discrete and block transfer data that can be imported into
RSLogix 5000.
You should write control programs in terms of these aliases rather than using absolute addresses. If
the mapping of the I/O data changes, simply reimport the new aliases and the control program will
point to the new data locations.
To export aliases, select
Tools/Export Alias File…
Use the browse button […] to change the file location.
The
Alias Prefix
is used to distinguish between aliases for different AN-X4-ABRIO-SCAN modules.
If you have more than one AN-X4-ABRIO-SCAN in the RSLogix configuration, assign each one a
different Alias Prefix so that the aliases for each module are unique.
The Base Tag identifies the AN-X the aliases are being created for. It should match the name you
give the emulated ENBT module in the ControlLogix chassis. Refer to the Tags section in RSLogix
5000 to find the format of the Base Tag.
Check the
Input Only
box if you want aliases only for input data.
Check the
Diagnostic Counters
box if you want descriptions for diagnostic counters to be included in
the file. They contain only comments; they do not contain alias names.
IMPORTANT!
The diagnostic counters for Ethernet statistics have changed in the AN-X4.
The counter descriptions generated by the configuration program are not
valid.
Click OK to create the alias file.
Alias Example
In this example, the remote I/O configuration contains a single quarter rack, rack 1, starting I/O group
0.
