Set up a PLC-5, SLC 500, or MicroLogix Meter Tag
To configure a PLC-5 or SLC 500 tag, follow these steps.
1. In the Add a Meter Tag window, leave the Meter tag type set to Device.
2. Enter a Meter tag name.
3. If the tag corresponds to a Value Type, select a Value Type from the pull-down menu.
4. Enter a Log rate.
5. Type in the Address in PLC-5/SLC 500 address format, for example, F21:10.
6. Select the appropriate Tag format from the pull-down menu.
7. Select the Units, Number of decimals to display, Scale, Offset, and Rollover Value for
the tag as appropriate.
8. Click Save to save the new tag, or Cancel to exit without saving.
Do not change any of the remaining fields from the values that
FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software fills in automatically. Changing the address, data
format, scaling, value type, and other parameters may prevent logging of the tag or
may cause the tag to be logged with erroneous data.
FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software does not natively support the
LONG data type in the MicroLogix controller. To log data from a
LONG tag, enter the address as Nx:2*y where x is the Long file
number and y is the Long element number, and select 32-bit
Integer as the meter tag data type. For example, L12:6 would be
addressed N12:12 in the meter tag setup.
