Integrating SIMOCODE pro into the automation system (PLC)

I/O configurations

SIMOCODE pro V PN supports a number of I/O configurations which define the structure

and length of the I/O data that are cyclically exchanged between the EtherNet/IP

scanner (PLC) and the adapter (SIMOCODE pro). These configurations are referred to as

"basic types" and can be selected on the basis of the chosen assembly instances when the

device is integrated in Studio 5000.

The data that are exchanged with the EtherNet/IP scanner can be set by means of function

blocks such as, for example, "Cyclic receive byte 0" or "Cyclic send byte 0" in the

SIMOCODE ES software. Detailed information about the relationship between

SIMOCODE ES function blocks and assembly instances can be found in Chapter Assembly

object (Page 316).
