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 10.07.00 or later, the Message Configuration
dialog boxes changed significantly to make it easier for you to configure your
messages.
• For example, in version 9.00.00 or 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 10.07.00 or 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 Reset
Electronic Fuse service, you must know only the Source Element and the
Destination.
The following section shows how to configure messages with RSLogix 5000
software, version 10.07.00 or later. A table describes the relationship of the
fields in both dialog boxes so you can configure messages by using
RSLogix 5000 software version 9.00.00 or earlier.
