AN-X2-SQD-MAS

June 2013

The ClxName consists of a line with the keyword ClxName, followed by a comma and
the name you give the emulated ENBT (see page 24)

Example:

ClxName, AnxSqdMas

ClxPrefix

The ClxPrefix is used in the alias names AN-X creates for import into RSLogix 5000.
AN-X prefixes each name with the ClxPrefix. The ClxPrefix can be used to distinguish
aliases for the same drop and slot on two different remote I/O networks when the
ControlLogix processor has connections to more than one AN-X2-SQD-MAS.

For example, if the ControlLogix has connections to two AN-X2-SQD-MAS modules,
each controlling a different network, each network could have a block with the same drop
and slot. Using a different ClxPrefix in the configuration file for each AN-X2-SQD-
MAS makes the aliases for the two AN-X modules distinct.

The ClxPrefix consists of a line with the keyword ClxPrefix, followed by a comma and
the prefix text.

Example:

ClxPrefix,SQD_

Scheduled Connections

Each scheduled connection to the AN-X begins with a line that consists of the keyword
ClxSlot followed by a comma and then a number from 0 to 14.

Example:

ClxSlot, 0

Each scheduled connection consists of output data and input data.

The section that defines the scheduled outputs from the ControlLogix processor for that
connection begin with a line with just the keyword DataOutput.

The section that defines the scheduled inputs to the ControlLogix processor for that
connection begin with a line with just the keyword DataInput.

Data definitions consist of lines that define the mapping between the ControlLogix data
table and the Remote module.

They consist of lines of the form

CLX_offset (optional), Location

The CLX_offset is the offset into the data for the connection. You can select the offset
where the data is located or you can leave it blank and AN-X will automatically assign
the offset.

The Remote_location consists of the drop and slot in the form dxsy where x is the drop
number and y is the slot number.
