Using this tab you can set:
- The state of the controller object, as follows: Status, "Enabled", "Running" and the name of the storage containing the configuration.
Manual restart of the enabled controller object causes the force reformation of the acquisition blocks.
- Identifier, name and description of the controller.
- The state "Enabled" and "Running", in which the controller object must be translated at boot.
- Policy of scheduling and priority of the data acquisition task.
- Connection recovery time, in seconds, after lost connection.
- Mode of asynchronous writing to the remote controller.
- Connection type, supported ones:
- CIF_PB — connection to S7 controllers of the firm Siemens via CIF-50PB communication processor or similar;
- ISO_TCP, ISO_TCP243 — connection to S7 controllers of the firm Siemens via the Ethernet network (TCP243 by CP243) whether by LibnoDave or own implementation;
- ADS — TwinCAT ADS/AMS protocol for connecting to controllers of the firm Beckhoff.
- Remote controller address, for the connections:
- CIF_PB — controller address in the ProfiBus network, one digit 0-255;
- ISO_TCP, ISO_TCP243 — IP-address in the Ethernet network for LibnoDave;
- ADS — network identifier and port for the target and source stations, in view {Target_AMSNetId}:{Target_AMSPort}|{Source_AMSNetId}:{Source_AMSPort} (for example: "192.168.0.1.1.1:801|82.207.88.73.1.1:801"), where:
- AMSNetId — network identifier, writes in view of six digits 0-255, for example: "192.168.0.1.1.1";
- AMSPort — port, writes in view of one digit 0-65535.
- CPU slot of the PLC in which the central processor of the controller is placed.
- CIF card used for access to the industrial controller through CIF communication processors.
- Output transport for the protocol ADS (port 48898, 801 for AMS) and ISO_TCP (port 102) for sending requests, using the unified connection with navigation. The field may be set to empty and be changed at the runtime. Format of the address is:
- "{TrModule}.[out_]{TrID}[:{TrAddr}]" — typical output with automatic creation TrID at it missing and providing TrAddr;
- "{TrModule}.in_{TrID}:{RemConId}" — initiative input with the connection identifier in RemConId.
- Maximum size of the request block in bytes, useful for controllers with such limits.
