Fipio bus Agent function
TSX Micro (TSX 37 21/22) or Premium PLCs, fitted with a TSX FPP 10 PCMCIA card
on their integrated communication
channel, are agents on the Fipio bus. The bus
manager is a TSX P 57 153/253/2823/353/453/4823, Atrium coprocessor
T PCX 57 203/353
.
The Fipio bus enables I/O to be remotely located close to the devices to be controlled
(Momentum, Altivar, etc). The Agent function enables offline processing, by locating
a TSX Micro PLC close to the machine.
In addition to the standard Fipio services (see pages 4/39 to
4/45 ), TSX Micro
(TSX 37 21/22) and Premium PLCs allow exchanges of input and output variables
with the bus manager PLC. These exchanges are performed cyclically, automatically
and without the involvement of the application program at the same rate as the task for
which the agent PLC has been configured.
For characteristics, Fipio bus wiring system and connection accessories, see
pages 4/50 to
4/59 .
The application services supported by TSX Micro (TSX 37 21/22) and Premium
Agent function PLCs are:
b Uni-TE service, X-Way industrial message handling service suitable for operator
dialogue, diagnostics and control functions (requests of up to 128 bytes).
b Application-to-application communication service, which consists of the
transmission of tables between 2 devices controlled by their respective application
programs (messages of up to 128 bytes).
b New periodic data exchange service for exchanging a 64 word table between the
bus manager PLC and the Premium Agent PLC. Sofware setup see page 4/52.
