Recording Exchange Information

The produced/consumed exchanges tables below were designed with columns that match up with the fields in the Ethernet Global Data dialog box.

These tables contain a definition of ALL the exchanges in the entire EGD system. The Local Producer ID column indicates in which PLC a given exchange is to be configured.

Record Your Produced Exchange Information

The first two rows of data in the Produced Exchanges table indicate that there are two produced exchanges for the PLC identified as 0.0.0.1. The third row of data indicates another exchange produced by the PLC identified as 0.0.0.3.
