Example of Explicit Message Using RSLogix 5000
8
If the connection path to the DX is configured using RSLinx, the connection path is
changed to an automatically named pathname (DXADV of ETHERNET-MODULE
DXADV shown in the figure below in this example). If the DX is not configured, the I/O
Configuration tree does not show ETHERNET-MODULE DXADV. The connection path in
the Communication tab is not replaced, either.

Message Launch Logic
Lastly, configure the message launch logic. In the example shown in the figure below, the
MSG block is launched and writes data to the DX when the WriteMessageBit is On. At
the same time, the WriteMessageBit is changed to Off and writing is ended.
