4.3 NODE PARAMETER ENTRIES
4.3.1 SUPERVISOR-PC UNIT PARAMETER ENTRIES
Refer to IB 53SU5000 for SUPERVISOR-PC unit database information (Section 4) and configura-
tion procedures (Section 5).
To set up a SUPERVISOR-PC unit for MicroLink operation:
1. Load the MicroLink SUPERVISOR-PC unit’s unique address (0 - 31) into database loca-
tion SUP00.B01 (the SUPERVISOR-PC unit is also a node on the MicroLink network; there-
fore, this address can not be assigned to any other node on the network).
2. Set database location SUP00.B02 to the MicroLink Mode. Mode 0 (2 Mbit/s) is not cur-
rently supported for a MicroLink network that includes a SUPERVISOR-PC unit, or a PC
unit with the 53WS5000 product package installed. The network is therefore restricted to
data rates of 1 Mbit/s or less, so SUP00.B02 should be set to 1 (1 Mbit/s), 2 (0.5 Mbit/s), or
3 (0.25 Mbit/s). The SUPERVISOR-PC unit must be reset after changing its MicroLink
mode or address.
3. Select the desired peer-to-peer tasks as described in IB 53SU5000. It should be noted
that the F-TRAN program executed on a MicroLink SUPERVISOR-PC unit can access data
in Process Control Stations, other SUPERVISOR-PC units, and PC units with the
53WS5000 product package installed using the standard INS notation; however, this nota-
tion does not permit the specification of a data base module type (e.g., CON, SDT, PLC,
etc.) in the remote instrument. For example, the F-TRAN statement
B99 = INS10.B80 ;
would read the value of B80 from the instrument at address 10 and store it in B99 of the
SUP00 database in the SUPERVISOR-PC unit. Only access to a remote SUPERVISOR-
PC unit SUP00 database is permitted, which has been extended to overlap much of the
other template data. This means that SUP00 addresses can be used to access data in
PLC, SDT, CON, and PAR templates as shown on the map information that follows. This
data is therefore still available to SUPERVISOR-PC unit F-TRAN programs, F-TRAN pro-
grams of PC units with the 53WS5000 product package installed, and the External Input
Module of the Process Control Station.
