Reading Files From the Power Monitor
Both integer and float files can be read from the power monitor. This
example reads the Date and Time table. Floats can be read by using
this same process but destination file should be of type float.
1. Select a PLC-5 controller for your Target Device, Local Network,
and Control Block.
Date and Time Message Read
TIP
Since it is easier to configure and much faster to run, full-duplex mode
is the preferred mode of operation. Use half-duplex mode only if you
do not have a choice.
