Modifying Parameter Data for an ArmorStart
The last configuration that will need to be done eventually, is the
writing of a parameter configuration change for an ArmorStart. This
is done by first equating a particular ArmorStart to a device number in
the data array. Again, this device number is determined by the Logix
slot of the communication card, ETherNetIP or CNet address of the
communication adapter and subnet slot of ArmorStart. The optional,
Armor_Descriptor field is extremely handy for doing a functional
lookup of the device number. Once the device number is determined,
the parameter number to be modified, must be obtained. The best way
to do this, is to go to the ArmorStart user manual and get the
parameter number of the value to be modified. The parameter
numbers all start with 1 and are numbered sequentially to the last
parameter number. The user manual is important because it will
thoroughly describe each parameter, for example, whether or not a
parameter is writable and what the parameter limits/interpretation are.
Once the device and parameter number is obtained, the next step is to
modify the configuration data for that parameter. The following
screen capture shows the data array and particularly, the parameter 8
for Device 0.
