Driver - Kingfisher Series I
Kingfisher Series I RTUs use two types of processor modules - CPU3 or CPU1. The following two ladder
blocks are used for both processor types.
A Series I RTU has two possible locations for data, its SDT (scan data table) and its NDT (network data
table). An SDT is comprised of 240 registers called IDs while the NDT is comprised of 240 blocks of 30
registers (7200 network registers in total). When a Series 2 RTU receives data from a Series I RTU, it is
always stored in network registers.
TX Series 1
Transmits up to 30 Series 2 local registers to a Kingfisher Series I RTU.
Comment: A 12-character description.
RTU #: (1-255) The destination RTU that the data is sent to (note: addresses 250-255 are reserved for
paging and PC use).
NDT No. (1-240; 0=SDT): When sending data to the NDT of a Series I RTU, usually NDT No. is chosen to
correspond to the local RTU's own address. Eg. If RTU2 was sending data to Series I RTU1, NDT No. would
be 2. When data is transferred to the SDT, registers are stored at the IDs corresponding to each register
number (ie. R1 is stored at ID1, R2 is stored at ID2 etc).
Registers: Only local registers R1 to R240 can be transferred to a Series I RTU as series I RTUs only have
240 IDs (each ID is equivalent to a local register). To transfer hardware registers (#AI, #AO, #DI, #DO) or
network registers (#N), these must first be copied into local registers (#R1 to #R240).
Rx Series 1
Polls up to 30 Series 1 IDs or an NDT block from a Kingfisher Series I RTU.
Comment: A 12-character description.
RTU #: (1-255) The source RTU that the data is read from (note: addresses 250-255 are reserved for paging
and PC use).
NDT No. (1-240; 0=SDT): When NDT No is set to 0, data is read from the SDT otherwise it is read from the
NDT block specified.
