TIP To display the Message Configuration dialog box in RSLogix 5000 software, add
a message instruction (MSG), create a new tag for the message (Properties:
Base tag type, MESSAGE data type, controller scope), and click the
button
in the message instruction.
IMPORTANT The explicit messaging examples in this section can be performed with RSLogix
5000 software, any version—or Studio 5000™ Logix Designer application,
version 21.00 or later.
IMPORTANT The read and write messaging examples in this section are for Device
parameters which use Class Code 0x93. For Host parameters, use Class Code
0x9F and format the rest of the message in the same way as these examples.
The Message Configuration has a Service Type of ‘Parameter Read’ which is
Class code 0x0F, Parameter Object. Parameter Object is not supported in
PowerFlex 750-series drives.
