Effect of PLC Modes and Actions on EGD Operations

The table below indicates what happens to the configuration and operation of EGD when in different PLC modes and when certain PLC actions take place.

For example, the normal PLC mode for EGD operation is RUN with Outputs enabled. In this PLC mode, EGD remains configured and exchanges are both produced and consumed. If the PLC mode is set to STOP with I/O disabled, the Producer ID remains configured, but production and consumption stop.

When configuration is lost, the EGD configuration must be stored again.

	Producer ID remains	Configuration-Based Exchanges

1RUN-SUSPEND I/O refers to the SUSIO logic function.

2Producer ID and exchange definitions are replaced.

3Producer ID and exchanges continue to be configured or not depending on the PLC mode prior to the action.

Note

The DOIO logic function does not affect EGD production or consumption.
