3.1.4 Configuration in the "Remote Controller" operating mode

3-20
When a control block CPX-FEC or CPX-CEC is used in the CPX
terminal, the bus node must be used in the Remote Controller
operating mode.
In principle, the bus node is configured in the same manner
as in the Remote I/O operating mode, but with different I/O
data lengths.
The bus node then occupies 8 or 16 input bytes and 8 or
16 output bytes, dependent on the setting of the DIL
switch 2.2 (è Tab. 1/3). These inputs and outputs are avail­
able to the control program of the control block.
To use the Remote Controller operating mode:
1. Set Remote Controller operating mode through the DIL
switch 1.1 (è Tab. 1/1).
2. Set the network protocol through the DIL switch 1.2
(è Tab. 1/2).
3. Set the required data field size through the DIL switch2.1
(è Tab. 1/3).
The bus node is thus configured in the Remote Controller
operating mode.
