|
| Provide name for Node. The driver |
|
|
| uses the Node name to establish a |
|
|
| connection with the Server if the |
|
|
| Node_ID is |
|
| Node_Name | If the Node_ID is zero then the driver | Up to 32 alphanumeric |
| ignores the Node name when logging | characters | |
|
| ||
|
| onto the PLC and logs on using a |
|
|
| Null name. Thus by setting the |
|
|
| Node_ID to zero you can allow the |
|
|
| driver to log onto a Node whose |
|
|
| name is not known. |
|
|
| The parameter is used to control how |
|
| Node_ID | the driver logs onto the PLC. Read | 0,1 |
