Parameter
Range
Description
Enable
0, 1, 2, 999
This field defines whether the command is to be executed and
under what conditions.
Value Description
0
The command is disabled and will not be executed in
the normal polling sequence.
1
The command is executed each scan of the command
list if the Poll Interval Time is set to zero. If the Poll
Interval time is set, the command will be executed,
when the interval timer expires.
2
The command will execute only if the internal data
associated with the command changes. This value is
valid only for write commands.
999
Issues a poll request to indicated slaves. This
command can be used to implement a slave-to-slave
network or an RBE based network
Internal
Address
0 to 3999
This field specifies the internal database register to be associated
with the command.
For Read functions, the data read from the slave device will be
placed starting at the register value entered in this field.
For write functions, the data written to the slave device will be
sourced from the address specified.
Poll Interval
0 to 65535
This parameter specifies the minimum interval to execute
continuous commands (Enable code of 1). The parameter is
entered in units of seconds. Therefore, if a value of 10 is entered
for a command, the command will execute no more frequently than
every 10 seconds.
Count
Message
dependent
This parameter specifies the number of registers or digital points to
be associated with the command. Functions 5 and 6 ignore this
field as they only apply to a single data point.
For Binary data functions, this parameter sets the number of digital
points (inputs or coils) to be associated with the command.
For word or register functions, this parameter sets the number of
registers to be associated with the command.
