Subscription Service The subscription service is a common method employed in many Omniflex products to efficiently replicate data between nodes on a network. A block of data in a DIT is replicated in another product DIT across the network by simply configuring a “subscription”.
Microsoft Windows compatible PC, Laptop or Handheld computer. This port is compatible with the Omniset configuration utility, and the Omniflex ISaGraf Programmer’s Workbench. 2.2.2 Serial Port All P3 CPU’s are equipped with a serial port that can be used to connect to other serial devices.

M1760/1 32SOE module or by user programs written specially for the purpose. Once stored in the queue, PC based clients such as the Omniflex Conet OPC Server are able to poll this queue over the network and extract the queued events for analysis.
Figure 4.2: Layout of the 7I/O Master Base 4.4 Connecting the Programming port (all models) Connect the P3/A3 CPU to a standard PC compatible serial port using the OMNIFLEX supplied standard programming cable (Part Number M1831A supplied separately). If another cable is to be used, the following connections will apply:...
This configuration is done in the Omniflex ISaGraf Programmer’s Workbench before downloading the User Program to the P3 PAC CPU. This module status is also continuously monitored while the program is running.
Date and Time of the event and a queue record is created that is then sent to the Queue Service in the P3 CPU. The SCADA system, by means of the Omniflex Conet OPC Server, is able to retrieve these events from the Queue Service for analysis at the SCADA.
DIT table, which is easily achieved from the local application program or remotely through any of the network ports. This remote device could, for example, be a PC running a SCADA application or another Omniflex device. Data throughput can be controlled by setting the Update Times for Cyclic queries on a per query basis.
The P3 CPU can be programmed in any of the IEC61131-3 programming languages using the Omniflex ISaGraf Programmer’s Workbench. Refer to the separate Omniflex ISaGraf Programmer’s Workbench User Guide for information on programming the P3 CPU in the IEC61131 programming languages.
DIT, using any software capable of writing to the DIT registers of the CPU. The full DIT register layout is available separately from Omniflex Technical Support, or it can be found in the Product Template File, viewed with Omniset.
Full instructions on the use of the Application Workbench are available in a separate manual. This manual is restricted to instructions specific to the Maxiflex P3 CPU. 12.3 Installing the Omniflex ISaGraf Application Workbench for the Maxiflex P3 CPU. The Omniflex ISaGraf Application Workbench installs together with the Omniset Pro configuration utility.
“safety related systems” as defined in IEC61508 or equivalent. Omniflex makes no claim regarding the ability of the system to fail to a safe state, and cannot be held liable for consequential loss resulting from the failure of any component or system supplied by Omniflex.
15.1 Battery Type The P3 CPU is equipped with an internal plug-in Lithium Battery. This battery is a type CR2032 Lithium Battery. This battery can be obtained from Omniflex by specifying Part Number 3.5701.001 The Battery is used only during power outages to maintain the real-time clock, and (optionally) the internal RAM memory.
