You can monitor the status of the communication with the network. A status bit for the
receipt of data from the network is provided for this. If the gateway detects a fault in the
communication, it sets the contents of the output records and the associated status bit
to Null.
7.5.4
Configuring the input data (routing to network)
Overview
The CPUc2 main module can send up to 50 bytes of input data to a higher-level control
system.
The input data can comprise the statuses of the inputs and outputs, the logic results, or
diagnostic data.
Approach
1.
In the main navigation pane, click
Configuration
.
2.
In the navigation pane under
Main module
>
Fieldbus
, select the
Routing to Network
menu item.
3.
Select the required input data and drag it onto a single byte or several bytes of the
input data block.
The following input data are available:
°
Routing templates
contain templates for the routing of data from the logic
editor.
°
Inputs
contain the input values of the modules.
°
Outputs
contain the output values of the modules as well as the logic results
from the logic editor.
°
Diagnostics
contains the checksums and status information of the modules.
✓
The bits, bytes or data formats are available as individual outputs in the logic
editor.
✓
Each bit, byte or data format inherits a default tag name from the routing.
4.
If required, edit the default tag name in the
Settings
tab.
Complementary information
Table 15: Colors of the bytes and bits of a record
Color
Meaning
Light blue
The byte or the bit is empty.
Blue
The byte or the bit is occupied. The relevant module, input or
output is configured in the hardware configuration of the safety
controller.
Gray
The byte or the bit is occupied. The relevant module, input or
output is not yet configured in the hardware configuration of the
safety controller.
The status of the communication with the network can be monitored. A status bit for
the sending of data to the network is provided for this. If the gateway detects a fault in
the communication, it sets the contents of the input records and the associated status
bit to Null.
