Configuring a Remote I/O Scanner

After selecting the baud rate, the next Program Block ID screen is used to assign data types and lengths for a Series 90-70 Remote I/O Scanner.

Configuration Notes

The Remote I/O Scanner User's Manual explains remote drop configuration in detail. You should use it as a reference during remote drop configuration.

Also, look over the information below. Especially, note that it is not always possible or desirable to use a HHM for remote drop configuration.

HIf the remote drop includes any Analog Expan- der Modules, Logicmaster 90 must be used for configuration; do not use a HHM.

HWhen a remote drop is configured with a HHM, all I/O modules will operate in default mode; module options can only be configured with the Logicmaster 90-70 software.

HUnless the Remote I/O Scanner is configuration protected, pressing F3 (send) from the Remote Map configuration screen causes the HHM to automatically configure the remote drop. This configuration will REPLACE any existingI/O configuration (including one entered using Lo- gicmaster 90-70), and return I/O module op- tions to their original defaults.

HRemote drops configured with Logicmaster

90-70 are automatically protected. Please check carefully before removing configuration protec- tion with a Hand-held Monitor.

HThe Hand-held Monitor automatically creates a configuration for a nine-slot rack, regardless of the actual rack size. If the remote drop has a five-slot rack, the HHM will later assume that there are unfilled slots. If this is a problem, Lo- gicmaster 90-70 can be used for configuration, or to edit an automatic configuration done with a Hand-held Monitor. Then, the configuration can be stored to the Remote I/O Scanner.

Configuring the Remote Drop

To configure the remote drop with the HHM:

1.Enter a starting address and length for: %I (dis- crete inputs), %Q (discrete outputs), %AI (ana- log inputs), %AQ (analog outputs) on the screen shown at left. The data lengths must not add up to more than 128 bytes of inputs and 128 bytes or outputs. If they do, an error message will appear when you attempt to send the data to the Remote I/O Scanner.

2.Next, press F2 (drop) and enter a Remote Drop ID (between 16 and 254).

3.Press the F3 (send) key to download these selections to the Remote I/O Scanner.

Note: Do not perform this step if you want to preserve a configuration entered using the Lo- gicmaster software.

The HHM configures the I/O references of Se- ries 90-70 I/O modules (only) in the remote drop. It assigns references in ascending order, starting with the slot next to the Remote I/O Scanner. The leftmost module of each type (%I, %Q, %AI, or %AQ) in the rack receives the first available reference of the appropriate type.

4.Press F4 (nxt) to go to the Program Block ID screen.

5.After completing these screens, press F2 (Con- figure Block) to complete the Genius configura- tion screens, or to display information about the I/O modules in the remote drop.

The module description screens that appear during the configuration sequence are read- only; boards cannot be configured here.
