Assigning ControlLogix addresses
Select Tools/Auto-allocate CLX Addressing to map the APACS IOBUS data to
ControlLogix addresses.
The module tree shows the CLX addresses associated with each APACS module.
What gets mapped
APACS IOBUS discrete inputs are mapped to the input data on ControlLogix
connections from 0 upwards, as required. Discrete outputs are mapped to the output data
on ControlLogix connections from 0 upwards, as required
Discrete input and output data points consist of a byte of data and are mapped to SINT
data in the ControlLogix. The low bit in each SINT corresponds to the value of the point
(0 or 1, False or True).
APACS IOBUS analog inputs are mapped to the input data on ControlLogix connections
from 8 downward, as required. APACS IOBUS analog outputs are mapped to the output
data on ControlLogix connections from 8 downward, as required. Analog inputs and
outputs are mapped to REAL data in the ControlLogix.
In addition, each discrete output, analog input and analog output has an associated status
byte. These are also mapped to SINT input data in the ControlLogix, in connections 0
and up.
