User guide

1. For additional PLC’s, click the Add PLC button and follow instructions under Manual Mode for
each additional device.
-Auto-Server Mode only affects PLC 1.
2. The Enable check box should be selected for the device.
3. Enter a Device Label to identify the device within the gateway.
4. Enter the IP Address of the PLC, the Controller Slot (Integrated Ethernet, use Slot 0), and select
the PLC Type. The Controller Slot is the slot where the Controller is located, not the Ethernet
Card being used. These 3 parameters must match the PLC you are communicating to.
5. Select the Comms Mode. Unconnected (UCMM) messaging relies on shared resources to
transfer data to/from the PLC. This could result in message timeouts if there are a lot of devices
fighting for these shared buffers. Connected (Class 3 Explicit) messaging relies on reserved
resources to transfer data to/from the PLC. RTA recommends using Connected.
6. To edit scan lines, you will need to go into Manual Mode.
