    MAN1078-07-EN_RCC_Series_UM 13.4 Using Removable Media to Log Data Using Read and Write Removable Media function blocks, an application ladder program can read and write RCC register data in the form of comma-delimited files, with a .CSV extension. These files are compatible with standard database and spreadsheet PC programs. In addition, an application ladder program can use Rename and Delete Removable Media function blocks to rename and delete files.

    MAN1078-07-EN_RCC_Series_UM CHAPTER 14: FAIL-SAFE SYSTEM 14.1 Overview The Fail-Safe System is a set of features that allow an application to continue running in the event of certain types of "soft" failures. These "soft" failures include: • Battery power loss • Battery-Backed Register RAM or Application flash corruption due to, for example, an excessive EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) event.

    MAN1078-07-EN_RCC_Series_UM 14.3 Backup / Restore Data Backup OCS Data: When initiated, this will allow the user to manually copy battery-backed RAM contents on to the onboard flash memory of the OCS. This will have the effect of backing up all the registers and controller settings (Network ID, etc.) that would otherwise be lost due to a battery failure.

Modbus (serial) and Modbus TCP/Modbus UDP (Ethernet) are popular, de-facto standard protocols that allow industrial devices from multiple manufacturers to easily share data in real-time.

    Modbus addressing style for each slave on the network, a minimum of address conversion is required. Also, if the slave is another Horner product (i.e. another RCC or an OCS), the “Native Addressing” option can be selected (i.e. %R1, %M17, etc.), and this skips the conversion to Modbus style altogether.

  • Page 94: Modbus Addressing Table For Rcc Units

    MAN1078-07-EN_RCC_Series_UM 16.4 Modbus Addressing Table for RCC Units To access RCC registers, a Modbus Master must be configured with the appropriate register type and offset. This is usually accomplished with one of two methods: 1. The first method uses Traditional Modbus References, in which the high digit represents the register type and the lower digits represent the register offset (starting with Register 1 for each type).
