Mapping the Drive Data in the
Scanner

Data from I/O messages must be mapped in the scanner. This
mapping determines where a ladder logic program can find data
that is passed over the network. You must map both the Input I/O
and the Output I/O.

5.3.1

Mapping the Input I/O

Step 1. In the Scanner Module dialog box, click the Input tab. See

figure 5.5. (If necessary, right-click the scanner in the
configuration view (figure 5.2) to display this dialog box.)

If you selected the Automap on Add box in the Scanlist page
(figure 5.3), RSNetWorx has already mapped the I/O. If it is not
mapped, click Automap to map it. If you need to change the
mapping, click Advanced and change the settings.

Step 2. In the Memory box, select a location in scanner memory

from table 5.3.
