At this point you may click "Finish" to complete the configuration of your I/O
module. Configure each I/O module in this manner.
Once you have created a Generic Profile for 1769sc-IT6I Isolated Thermocouple
module, you must enter configuration information into the tag database that is
automatically created from the Generic Profile information you entered. This
configuration information is downloaded to each module at program download,
at power up, and when an inhibited module is uninhibited.
First, enter the Controller Tag database by double-clicking on Controller Tags in
the upper portion of the Controller Organizer.
Based on the Generic Profile created earlier for 1769sc- IT6I module, the
Controller Tags screen looks like the following:
Tag addresses are automatically created for configured I/O modules. All local
I/O addresses are preceded by the word Local. These addresses have the
following format:
• Input Data: Local:s:I
• Configuration Data: Local:s:C
Where s is the slot number assigned to the I/O modules in the Generic Profiles.
In order to configure an I/O module, you must open up the configuration tag for
that module by clicking on the plus sign to the left of its configuration tag in the
Controller Tag data base.
