FLDBUS Menu

The FLDBUS menu is shown only if a DeviceNet, Profibus, EtherNet/IP, or ControlNet option card is installed.
The SWAP parameter on the FLDBUS menu enables byte swapping by the

iRite

BusCommand handler rather

than requiring a SWP (SWAPBYTE) instruction in the PLC. Byte swapping is enabled by default for DeviceNet
cards; for all other fieldbus cards, byte swapping is disabled by default.

The DATASIZE parameter sets the size of the BusCommand handler data transfers. The default value (8 bytes, or
4 words) matches the default data size specified in the EDS and GSD files, and used by the standard discrete
transfer commands. DATASIZE can be set to any value from 2–128 bytes (1–64 words), but the value specified
must match the data size set for the PLC Scanner I/O data size.

VERS Menu

The VERS menu can be used to check the installed software version or, by using the

Reset Config

softkey, to

restore all configuration parameters to their factory default values. There are no parameters associated with the
Version menu: when selected, the indicator displays the installed software version number.

diagnostic information.
