Data Received From The Network - Leuze electronic MSI 400 Series Manual

11.6

Data received from the network

The data received from the network is divided into five data blocks of 10 bytes each for clarity.
The content of the input data blocks can be used in the logic editor of the MSI.designer, as well as made
available for another network via a second gateway within the MSI 400 system.
NOTICE
i
Ä In order to use network data in the logic editor or as input for another network, you must as-
sign a tag name for each bit to be used.
Ä Bits without specific tag names will not be available in the logic editor or for routing via a
second gateway. Detailed information about how to assign tag names for the data received
may be found in the corresponding sections of the chapters on the various gateways.
Ä You can monitor current communication with the network with the aid of input data state bits
for receiving data from the network and the output data state bit for transmitting data to the
network in the logic editor. When the gateway detects a communication error, both the con-
tent of the data sets and the associated state bit are set to zero (logical 0).
Ä When all communication fails, the data of the output data sets and the input data state bit
are set to zero (logical 0).
Ä When a connection is closed while others remain available, the LED MS or LED state will
flash red/green for a total of 10 seconds and an entry will be made in the error log. In this
case the state bits are not affected.
Tag names pre-assigned in the software for the EtherCAT gateway
