5.3.3 Tranferring Diagnostic Information from MM to a Controller on

the Network

Internal Tags (#I) provide runtime status data. Every user defined Trigger,

Transfer List, Interface, and Device will have predefined internal Interface status

tags. The statistics will be available in data structures which may be transferred

to a suitable UDT in a single transfer. The statistics will also be available as

individual values for transfer to controllers that do not support UDTs.
You can use the New Tag dialog box for Internal Tags, ControlLogix,

CompactLogix and FlexLogix to add references of tags to the module's

configuration.

To open the New Tag dialog box:

Select the Tags node under the desired Interface in the Configuration Editor tree.

Press the N

EW

button on the toolbar.
