AbRioCfg Software Overview The 1757-ABRIO module ships with configuration software, called AbRioCfg. This configuration software is an online configuration tool.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Mapping and Accessing RIO Network Data Use the provided AbRioCfg software to create tags which are arrays of digital, floating point or text values that the host controller reads or writes using unscheduled messages. You map data that the module receives or sends into these tags. The data mapping is stored in flash memory on the 1757-ABRIO module.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Installing AbRioCfg Software Chapter 2 1. Verify that RSLinx software and RSLinx OEM or RSLinx Professional (not RSLinx Lite) software is installed before you install the AbRioCfg software. 2. Insert the CD supplied with the 1757-ABRIO module and run the program setup.exe. 3. Confirm that you have RSLinx OEM or RSLinx Professional (not RSLinx Lite) software installed. IMPORTANT Messages about the DTL32.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module 2. Click Hardware Config to highlight it and activate the AbRioCfg menu toolbar. TIP With AbRioCfg software, 2.0 and higher, you can also manually configure the I/O racks in your network. Refer to Add Racks Offline on page 33 for more information. 3. Click the Autoconfig button in the toolbar. An RSWho window opens.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Chapter 2 4. Navigate to the 1757-ABRIO module. 5. Select the module and click OK. The Select Baud Rate dialog box opens. 6. Select the appropriate baud rate and click OK. The baud rate in this example is set by switches on the 1771-ASB adapter. See your device documentation for how to set the desired baud rate. All racks or devices on one RIO network must operate at the same baud rate.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module The 1757-ABRIO module sends messages to all possible racks and builds the network rack configuration from the responses. It displays a list of the racks it found in the network tree. If you expand a rack, the partial racks that make up that rack number are displayed. 7. If you are using 1771 remote I/O modules, a. Right-click the rack in the network tree and select Enter Rack Switch Setting. The Select Rack Setting dialog box opens.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Chapter 2 b. Select the value that matches the Last State switch setting in the backplane of the I/O chassis, either De-energize or Hold Last State. This setting tells the 1757-ABRIO module what to do if the controller stops updating the tag to which this chassis’s digital data is mapped. c. Repeat steps 7a and 7b for all racks that contain 1771 remote I/O modules.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module 4. Select the slot location for the module. To do this, you should be familiar with Allen-Bradley addresses and, in particular, with 1771 addressing modes (see below). See I/O Module Documentation on page 84 for a list of related ControlLogix documentation. 5. Click OK. Addressing Modes for 1771 The 1771 chassis have three addressing modes - 1/2-slot, 1-slot and 2-slot addressing.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Chapter 2 As illustrated in the 1/2-slot addressing table below, the controller addresses 1/2 of an I/O module slot as one I/O group. For example, for a chassis at rack 1, starting I/O group 0, a block transfer module in the first slot would be at address rack 1, I/O group 0, slot 0. A module in the next slot would be at rack 1, I/O group 2, slot 0.
Chapter 2 Scaling Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Part of the configuration procedure for analog modules is entering scaling values. The 1757-ABRIO module performs scaling between raw I/O data and floating point user values. You can send floating point output values to the 1757-ABRIO module which it converts to raw output values using the scaling values you supplied in the configuration. Similarly, the 1757-ABRIO module converts raw input data to floating point values, using the scaling you enter.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Chapter 2 Output Scaling For output modules, you supply the floating point values you want to correspond to the minimum and maximum raw output values. ATTENTION The minimum scale value may not be larger than the maximum scale value EXAMPLE If a channel has a range of 1 5 V dc and you set the minimum scaling value to 12.3 and the maximum scaling value to 77.4, when you set the output value to 12.3, the module produces a raw output value of 1 V dc.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Tags Defined The ProcessLogix or ControlLogix controller accesses data for the 1757-ABRIO module using unscheduled messages that read or write tags. For more information on how the controllers access this data, see Configuring the ProcessLogix Controller to Access Data on the 1757-ABRIO Module on page 51 and Configuring RSLogix 5000 Software to Access Data on the 1757-ABRIO Module on page 57.
Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Chapter 2 Flag Read (3) and Flag Write (4) tags – Flag read and write tags are arrays of 512 bits. – Block transfer modules also have status bits that can be mapped to flag read tags. – Dragging an entire I/O Grp to a Flag Read or Flag Write tag will expose all discrete read or write values for that rack as well as the Rack Global Status tag. Text Read (5) tags – Text read tags are arrays of 64 bytes. – They are used only with the 1770-HT1 HART module.
Chapter 2 Configure the 1757-ABRIO Module Create a Tag If you are planning to use automatic digital tags via a scheduled connection to the 1757-ABRIO module from a ControlLogix controller, do not create tags.

Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Introduction This chapter describes using a generic module type which supports any block transfer I/O module that uses 16-bit integer data. To use these features, you need the following: Firmware version 2.1 or above of the firmware for the 1757-ABRIO module AbRioCfg software version 2.1 or above AbRioCfg software version 2.1 or above can open or upload configurations made with previous versions of AbRioCfg software.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Generic Module Configuration File The Generic Module configuration file consists of these sections. – the configuration block transfer write (BTW) – the data block transfer read – the data block transfer write Most configuration files have a configuration block transfer write. Some may have both data block transfer read and data block transfer write sections; others will have just one or the other.
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 The offset is the offset into the block transfer and ranges from 0 to the block transfer length - 1. For example, if the block transfer is 10 words long, the allowed offsets range from 0 to 9. The value can be in one of the following formats: Format Range Binary 0b0000000000000000 to 0b1111111111111111 Hexadecimal 0x0000 to 0xFFFF Unsigned integer 0 to 65535 Signed integer -32768 to 32767 Binary values start with a leading “0b”.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Example: 1771-IFE Module The following configuration block transfer write file configures a 1771-IFE for the following: differential operation (8 input channels) each channel set for 1-5 VDC or 4-20 mA two's complement binary data format each channel's raw data scaled between 0 and 4095 configbtw, 21 ; length 21 0, 0 1, 0 2, 0x0500 ; differential inputs, binary 3, 0 4, 0 5, 0 6, 0x4095 ; channel 1 scaling 7, 0 8, 0x4095 ; channel 2 scaling 9, 0 10, 0
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 Example: 1771-OFE module The following configuration block transfer write file configures a 1771-OFE for: binary data format raw data from 0 to 0x0fff (0 to 4095 decimal) on each channel configbtw, 13 ; length 13 4, 0x8000 ; binary data format 6, 0x0fff ; maximum raw value channel 8, 0x0fff ; maximum raw value channel 10, 0x0fff ; maximum raw value channel 12, 0x0fff ; maximum raw value channel 1 2 3 4 0 values have been omitted.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software AbRioCfg software checks the number of values to be defined against the actual number of definitions and indicates an error if they do not match. The format can be one of: Format Range of values BCD 0 to 9999 Unsigned 0 to 65535 Integer -32768 to 32767 All items must have the same format.
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 If the module does not have overrange or underrange bits, leave those fields blank in the configuration file. Some modules have a separate polarity bit to indicate the sign of an input. If the polarity bit is set, the 1757-ABRIO module assigns the corresponding data a negative value. the 1757-ABRIO module uses the polarity offset and bit only for the BCD data type. It ignores them for the other data types.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software The offset is an offset into the block transfer. It can range from 0 to the length of the block transfer - 1. If the offset is followed by an “H”, it refers to the high byte of the block transfer word. The length can range from 8 to 504 and must be a multiple of 8. The sum of the lengths in the data definitions must match the length in the “flag” line.
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 Sample 1771-IFE Configuration File configbtw, 21 ; length 21 2, 0x0500 ; differential inputs, binary 5, 0 6, 0x4095 ; channel 1 scaling 7, 0 8, 0x4095 ; channel 2 scaling 9, 0 10, 0x4095 ; channel 3 scaling 11, 0 12, 0x4095 ; channel 4 scaling 13, 0 14, 0x4095 ; channel 5 scaling 15, 0 16, 0x4095 ; channel 6 scaling 17, 0 18, 0x4095 ; channel 7 scaling 19, 0 20, 0x4095 ; channel 8 scaling databtr, 12 numeric, 4, signed 4, 1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 0, 4095, 0
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Numeric Data The numeric section of the data block transfer write defines the I/O data - its location, format, and scaling. The beginning of the numeric section is marked by the keyword “numeric”, the number of values to be defined, and the data format. AbRioCfg software checks the number of values to be defined against the actual number of definitions and indicates an error if they do not match. The format can be one of the following.
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 The 1757-ABRIO module uses the polarity offset and bit only for the BCD data type. It ignores them for the other data types. TIP If the data type is BCD, enter the raw minimum and maximum values in decimal, not hexadecimal. For example is the range is 0 to 9999, enter the value as 9999, not 0x9999. If the scaled valued written is NaN, the raw output gets set to the corresponding value in the configuration data.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software The sum of the lengths in the data definitions must match the length in the “flag” line.
Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software Chapter 3 2. Select a Module Type of Generic Module, the location for the module and click OK. 3. Browse to or type the CSV file and path and click Import. AbRioCfg software imports the configuration file and displays the contents, or gives an error message if it finds problems with the file. 4. Assign values for the BTR and BTW Update Times. 5. Click OK to accept the module.
Chapter 3 Creating Generic Modules in AbRioCfg Software You can export the generic module configuration by clicking the Export button in the Generic Module dialog box. Since comments in the original file are not imported (and therefore are not exported), it is usually better to modify the original configuration file and save it with a new name. Export may be useful if you upload a configuration that contains a generic module from a 1757-ABRIO module and you do not have the original file.

Appendix C Operational Comparison Between the 1757-ABRIO Module and a PLC-5 System Normal Operational Messages The 1757-ABRIO module is designed to respond, as much as possible, like a PLC-5 system. In PLC-5 applications, all I/O modules are physically configured for safe state if the PLC-5 controller is in Program or Fault mode. There is one important difference - the PLC-5 controller has well-defined, built-in modes of operation, either program or run.
Appendix B Operational Comparison Between the 1757-ABRIO Module and a PLC-5 System . Equivalent Modes 1757-ABRIO Module PLC-5 Controller Description ACTIVE Run Data is transferred and diagnostics are enabled. INACTIVE Program Inputs are updated and outputs are treated the same as PLC-5 Program mode. CONFIG Program Inputs are held and outputs are treated the same as PLC-5 Program mode. FORCED ACTIVE TIP Inputs are updated and outputs are set by the user through AbRioCfg software.
Operational Comparison Between the 1757-ABRIO Module and a PLC-5 System Exception Handling Messages Appendix B The 1757-ABRIO module provides a good communication flag for each digital partial rack. It also maintains a good communication flag for each configured block transfer module. These bits are set when the rack or block transfer module is updating without errors, and are cleared when an error occurs. These health bits are included in the “Tag” along with the channel states.

Appendix D Tag Descriptions for Scheduled Data in RSLogix 5000 Software When you create an exclusive owner or input only connection, several tags are automatically created for the each 1757-ABRIO module. For example, if your 1757-ABRIO module is located in the supervisory rack, slot 3, then the configuration tag associated with it would be Local:3:C.
Appendix C Tag Descriptions for Scheduled Data in RSLogix 5000 Software Input Tags Address Description Local::I.Data[10] Rack 2, I/O group 0 inputs ... Local::I.Data[17] Rack 2, I/O group 7 inputs ... Local::I.Data[242] Rack 37 octal, I/O group 0 inputs ... Local::I.
Tag Descriptions for Scheduled Data in RSLogix 5000 Software Appendix C Status Tag The status tag contains a global status as well as individual status flags for all possible partial racks. The status bits are set if the rack with the corresponding rack number and starting I/O group is configured in the 1757-ABRIO module and is not communicating, and are 0 otherwise. If any configured rack is not communicating, the global status is set. The following table shows the contents of the Status Tag.
