Enter Message Configuration
After creating a tag, you must enter certain parameters for the message
configuration. This information is entered on the Configuration and
Communication tabs of the Message Configuration dialog box.
The Message Configuration dialog box is accessed by clicking the box with the
ellipses (in the Message Control field).
IMPORTANT
In RSLogix 5000 software, version 10 and later, the Message
Configuration dialog boxes changed significantly to make it
easier for you to configure your messages.
• For example, in version 9 and earlier, depending on the
Message Type, you are required to configure some
combination of the following:
– Service Code
– Object Type
– Object ID
– Object Attribute
– Source
– Number of Elements
– Destination
• In version 10 and later, after you choose a Service Type,
RSLogix 5000 software fills in most of the fields listed
above. The fields you must fill in are dependent on what
Service Type you choose. For example, with the High Alarm
Unlatch, you must know only the Source Element and the
Destination.
A table describes the relationship of the fields in both dialog
boxes on
page 345 .
