Input Data Area Tab
The input data area describes data received over the network by the CPU367 PROFIBUS
Slave module from the network Master. These inputs are mapped, using the Input Data
Area tab, into specific memory locations in the PLC where the Slave module resides.
Area
A read-only identifier for the row. Valid range: 1 to 32.
Type
Data type of area being defined. Valid types are Digital In, Analog In, and Empty. The default value is
Empty.
Size
Describes the size of the data area on the network. Set to 0 and read-only if Type is set to Empty. Valid
ranges:
If Type is set to Analog In (Word): 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 32, 64
If Type is set to Digital In (Byte): 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 32, 64
Note: The total number of input bytes for all entries cannot exceed 244. A value of 0 sets Type to Empty.
Units
This read-only field gives the units for the Type specified.
If Type is set to Empty or Digital In: Byte
If Type is set to Analog In: Word
Ref
Address
Location in PLC memory where the received data is mapped. This field is read-only if Size is set to 0. This
is a consumed range and must be a non-overlapping range in %AI, %I, %Q, %G, %AQ, %R, %T or %M. If
Type is set to Digital In and the number of bytes (Size) is odd, an address in discrete memory must be
used: %I, %Q, %G, %M, or %T.
Default:
For Digital In, next available address in %I
For Analog In, next available address in %AI
Output Data Area Tab
The output data area describes data sent over the network by the CPU367 PROFIBUS
Slave module to the network Master. These outputs are mapped, using the Output Data
Area tab, from specific memory locations in the PLC where the Slave module resides.
Area
Read-only identifier for the row. Valid range: 1-32.
Type
Data type of area being defined. Valid types are Digital Out, Analog Out, and Empty. The default value is
Empty.
Size
Describes the size of the data area on the network. Set to 0 and read-only if Type is set to Empty. Valid
ranges:
If Type is set to Digital Out (Byte): 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 32, 64
If Type is set to Analog Out (Word): 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 32, 64
Note: The total number of output bytes for all entries cannot exceed 244. A value of 0 sets Type to Empty.
Units
This read-only field gives the units for the Type specified.
If Type is set to Empty or Digital Out: Byte
If Type is set to Analog Out: Word
Ref
Address
Location in PLC memory where the data to be sent is mapped. This field is read-only if Size is set to 0.
This is a produced range and can be any range in %AI, %I, %Q, %G, %AQ, %R, %T, or %M. If Type is
Digital Out and the number of bytes (Size) is odd, an address in discrete memory must be used: %I, %Q,
%G, %M, or %T. Overlaps with another produced range are not considered fatal and can be included in a
valid configuration.
Default: For Digital Out, next available address in %Q
For Analog Out, next available address in %AQ
