After the DirectLogic driver class is selected the following dialog appears.
The selections are as follows:
Tag: User defined object name that can be referenced for connecting
other objects.
Comm Link: The associated link chosen for the configured driver
object. When the “…” button is pressed the Select Link dialog will
appear.
Poll Rate= is a numerical expression that determines how often to poll
the device in milliseconds.
Poll is a logical expression. When the expression changes from false
to true, LookoutDirect polls the device one time. You can use a simple
expression like the signal from a pushbutton, or a complex algorithm.
If a link is not available, you will have to add one. Click the Add… button
to create a new communications link then select the correct Serial or
Ethernet port that you have the cable attached from your PC to the PLC.
