Configuring Enhanced PLC-5 Processors 2-25
Considerations When Configuring MSG Control Blocks
Keep these considerations in mind when configuring messages
between a PLC-5 and SLC 500 or MicroLogix processor.
The following table lists which PLC-5 processors (series and revision)
you can use with the MSG instruction to transfer data from/to a PLC-5
processor to/from any SLC 500 processor or MicroLogix 1000 in SLC
native mode.
•
Since all SLC 5/05, 5/04 and 5/03 processors with Operating
System 301 or higher can respond to (and initiate) PLC-5 native
mode message commands, all PLC-5 processors can transfer data
between their data tables and the data table of these particular
SLC processors (except for the I/O image table) as if they were
messaging with another PLC-5 processor.
•
In a single instruction, the maximum amount of words you can
read from or write to through channel 0 is as follows:
– SLC 500, 5/01, 5/02, and MicroLogix 1000 processor, 41 words
– SLC 5/03, 5/04, 5/05, MicroLogix 1100/1200/1500 processor,
103 words
When configuring messages between a PLC-5 and Logix processor,
use the PLC-5 typed read and write commands and enclose the name
of the Logix tag in double quotes. This is called logical ASCII
addressing.
