When you put the Control Logix module in the RACK and follow the manual instructions, the OUTPUT word is configured as a real (float). What must we do to allow it to be viewed in binary, so we can use it to give commands to the module?
Can I control I/O over DeviceNet on my HI 3000 series controller (HI 3010, HI 3030, HI 3300 or HI 3600)?
For example: I have a master controller which would be the weight controller, but I need to add I/O and a drive. Can I do that? What programming language do you use to control the logic of the operation? How are your parameters sent over Ethernet and can I capture net and tare weight via Ethernet or DeviceNet?
How many words does a HI 3000 DeviceNet slave use in the data table when configured as a slave and mapped as one more device controlled by a DeviceNet scanner in a PLC?
We are using a HI 2151/30WC with the B12 Profibus option. We have implemented serial communications (RS-232) from the Hardy to a third party display (wiring just the TXD and GND signals). We configured the Hardy for continuous print of Gross weight. In order to initiate communications we were told we have to apply a positive voltage to the CTS in the Hardy. We tested this using a 9 V battery and the communications worked. Is there somewhere on the Hardy unit that we could pick up this voltage to keep CTS high (as opposed to using an external source)?
What is the maximum I/O that can I use in my HI 3000 or HI 4000 series over DeviceNet? The system needs to control 4 scales and the total I/O for the four scales is 75 Outputs, 30 Inputs.
