Phantom Network Protocol Master Communication Module
Data Type Description
INT Minimum number of seconds between issuance of
command (0-65535 Sec)
INT Swap code used with command
INT Network Node Address
INT Function code for the command
INT Internal database address
Description
This parameter defines if the command will be executed or will be
disregarded. The following values are valid: 0=Disables the command and
it will not execute. 1=The command will be considered for execution each
scan of the command list and will be controlled by the PollInt parameter.
And 2=The command will only execute if the data associated with the
command has changed since the command was last issued. This option is
only available for write commands.
This parameter specifies the starting internal register address to be
associated with the command. Valid entry for this parameter is 0 to 4999
registers or 0 to 65535 bits when addressing bit-level command.
This parameter specifies the starting internal register address to be
associated with the command. Valid entry for this parameter is 0 to 4999
registers or 0 to 65535 bits when addressing bit-level command.
This parameter defines the minimum number of seconds to wait between
the execution of continuous commands (Enable=1). This poll interval
command can be used to lighten the communications load on a busy
network. Valid entry for this parameter is 0 to 65535.
This parameter specifies if the data used in the command must be altered
when a function code 3 reads data from a node on the network. Values
that can be assigned are as follows: 0=no swapping of data, 1=swap word
values, 2=swap word and byte values and 3=swap byte values. This
option is used when interfacing the module with ASCII and floating-point
data on other devices.
This parameter specifies PNPM device ID for Function Code 11.
This parameter specifies the function to be performed by the command.
Valid entries are 7, 11, 12, and 13.
This parameter defines the starting address in the device being considered
by the command. Values entered in this field are dependent on the node's
database definition. Refer to the specific manufacturer's database
definition for the device to determine the location of the data to be
interfaced.
