Using Explicit Messaging
The following table identifies the data that is required in each box to configure a
CompactLogix controller message to read a single parameter.
Example Ladder Logic Program to Write a Single Parameter
A Set Attribute Single message is used to write to a single parameter. This
CompactLogix controller write message example writes a value to the 16-bit
parameter P041 [Accel Time 1] in a PowerFlex 525 drive.
