Allen-Bradley MicroLogix and SLC 500 Addressing

Topic: CM397

 

Note: DiscreteI/O is not supported by SLC 5/01 and 5/02.

There are a few different formats of addressing that C-more supports when connecting to the Allen-Bradley SLC 500 and MicroLogix PLC.

The Expanded I/O format allows the slot and word to be specified, which is more typical when trying to access Analog I/O data. The Non-Expanded I/O format only allows the slot to be specified and is more typical when trying to access Discrete I/O. The Non I/O Addressing format should be used for all other memory types.

Memory Type File Number Slot Number Word Number Bit Number Description Flag Read/Write Type Data Type
O Expanded Format 0 1 to 30 — — Output — R/W Word
O Expanded Format 0 1 to 30 0 to 255 0 to 15 Output — R/W Discrete
