Configure a Conventional Analog Output Module
After you “accept” a module into the slot, a screen like this appears:
S:1 AQ:04
AQ_
tgl entr
Number of
references for
this module type
Assign I/O References for the Module
Specify the I/O references to be used by the module. For most applications, you can simply have
the Bus Interface Unit assign the next available references in that memory type. Alternately, you
can enter specific references for the module.
A. To assign the next available references, just press F4 (entr).
B. If you want to change to another type of I/O table, press F3 (toggle).
C. If you want to assign specific references, enter the starting address. Press F4 (entr).
For most applications, all module references should fall within the network map
configured for the Bus Interface Unit. For local control, a module can be
configured outside the BIU network map.
In addition, each data type (I, Q, AI, AQ) has a total of 256 bytes allocated within
the BIU. So for each data type, all references must be located within a 256-byte
range. For example, if the starting address for analog output data configured for the
Bus Interface Unit was AQ0101, all analog outputs would need to be located
between AQ0101 and AQ0357.
Module references are automatically assigned by the Bus Interface Unit based on its configured
data addresses and the number of points appropriate for the module type.
To edit the module's configuration, press F4 (zoom).
