Configuring the Scanner through LIST

Chapter 2

2-6

ATTENTION: Selecting reconfiguration while the controller is
in the run mode and executing block transfers could cause a bad
address fault.

If this situation occurs, you should:

Clear the bad address fault in a fault routine.
Clear the block transfer error bit.
Restart the block transfer in the ladder program

I/O Scan Configuration

When you configure an I/O channel for I/O scan, you can change the order
and priority that the scanner scans the I/O chassis. You do this by listing
the I/O chassis in the order that you want the scanner to communicate with
them. This allows you to assign a higher priority to some I/O chassis than
to others by listing the higher priority chassis more than once.

For example, suppose your I/O chassis scanning sequence list has six
entries, and entries 1 and 4 are the same. Then the scanner updates the
chassis listed as entries 1 and 4 twice as often as the other chassis.

Each I/O chassis is listed once in the default configuration at initial
power-up or after auto configure. You can alter the list to repeat a chassis
as often as desired, provided that the list contains no more than 32 entries.

An asterisk (*) appearing before an entry in the list indicates that the
corresponding I/O chassis or adapter is faulted.

To enter a chassis into the I/O chassis scanning sequence, use the format
shown in Figure 2.2.
