Configure the Configurable Flowmeter Module
Overview of the
Configuration Process
70
When you create a module, module-defined data structures and tags are
created in the programming software. The information contained in these
structures determines your module's behavior.
The owner-controller sends configuration information to the module in one of
these ways:
•
Controller project goes online - Typically, this is the method in which
initial configuration is sent. When the project goes online, a program is
downloaded to the controller, and connections are made to all devices
that controller owns, including any modules. When a connection is
established, the configuration for that particular module is transferred.
•
Message instructions - Typically, this method is used after module
operation has begun and additional configuration changes are
necessary.
IMPORTANT
This chapter assumes that you have created a Logix controller in your
project.
