Generic Instrument Setup
The generic instrument’s data will be stored in certain registers
on the host instrument, such as the 9205 controller. Each
instrument is allotted a certain set of registers, starting with
register 1000. To determine the beginning register, use the
following calculation: (100 * generic instrument’s number (1 –
16)) + 900. Therefore, instrument 1 would begin at register
1000: (100 * 1) + 900. Instrument 7 would begin at register 1600:
(100 * 7) + 900. Each instrument is allotted 100 registers,
therefore, instrument 1’s allotment is from register 1000 to
1099 on the 9205 controller, instrument 2’s allotment is from
register 1100 to 1199 on the 9205 controller, etc.
The
Generic Instrument Setups
menu is split into two parts:
Coms, and Data. The screen lists the generic instruments from Instrument 1 to Instrument 16. Select the
desired instrument to configure, then choose Coms or Data.
Coms
The three reads can be set up on this screen.
Read 1 Register, Read 2 Register, Read 3 Register
The Read
X
Register field will be the register in the 9205 controller that the instrument will read from. The
range is 0 – 32767.
Read 1 Count, Read 2 Count, Read 3 Count
The Read
X
Count field will be the number of successive registers to read. The range is 0 – 100.
Read 1 Storage Offset, Read 2 Storage Offset, Read 3 Storage Offset
The Read
X
Storage Offset field will be the offset in the generic instruments registers (1000 – 1099 for
Instrument 1, 1100 to 1199 for Instrument 2, etc). The range is 0 – 100.
Data
The Process Variable (PV), Setpoint (SP), and Output (Out)
can be set up from this screen. Select the desired option
from the drop-down list to configure those settings.
Offset
The Offset field is the instrument’s register offset. The
range is 0 – 32767.
Instrument Register
The Instrument Register field is the register in the 9205
controller. The range is 0 – 32767.
Input Type
The Input Type field will determine what kind of type the
value will be. The options are: Integer, Big Endian, Big Endian Byte Swap, Little Endian, or Little Endian
Byte Swap.
