4.6 Device List Setup
The Device List menu item enables you to indicate which
registers on the PLC will receive data from the devices. In
this screen, you will enter the device type and address for
each Siemens device connected to port 2. You will also indi-
cate to which registers on the PLC you want the DTU3005
to write device data.
Select Device List from the Edit menu to display the
device list screen:
This screen is divided into two parts:
• On the left side of the screen is a list of the devices con-
nected to port 2 (the list is initially empty). Up to 32
devices can be attached; however, only 17 of the
devices are visible on the screen at one time. To see all
the devices, click on the scroll bar with the mouse, or
use the Up and Down Arrow and Page Up and Page
Down keys.
• The right side of the screen is used to configure the
data register information for the selected device, as
shown in the example screen on the next page. You
can add or delete devices, or change device configura-
tion by highlighting the Device Type on the left side of
the screen, then using the fields and buttons on the
right side of the screen.

screen. Press Enter, and the Device Types list dis-
