16.3.5 Entering A-B Device addresses
General Format
: EasyBuilder uses Allen Bradley’s
extended address notation for specifying Device
addresses. Only put the raw address in the
Device
Address
field. Extra “.”, “/”, and spaces are not allowed.
For example: To access Bit 8 of B003 array element 14,
select
B3
for the
Device Type
, and put
301408
in the
Device Address
field.
Bit Types
B3, B10, B11, B12, B13: File number is fixed, specify both
Element and Bit. The Bit must be a two-digit number.
Note:
Leading zeroes of the element do not have to be
entered.
Example showing file B003, element 001, bit 13, being
assigned to a Bit Lamp part.
The device address could also be entered as shown
below.
Extended Bit Types
Bfn
and
NfnBit
: File, Element and bit must be specified.
Example showing file N010, element 021, bit 07, being
assigned to a Set Bit part.
Notice that there are no separators in the
Device Address
field. This is the proper format.
Word Types
N7, N10~N15; F8 (N8); T4SV, T4PV; C5SV, C5PV: Only
the Element needs to be specified.
Nfn
: File number and Element need to be specified.
Example of a Multi-State part showing word type formats.
Read address is N11 element 14 and Write address is N11
element 2.
Notice that leading zeroes in the Device address field are
not necessary if only an element number is required.
The
Bfn
,
Nfn
and
Ffn
device types allow access to any
data file (fff) and element (nnn) in memory. fff specifies the
data file 000-254, and nnn specifies the element number
000-254. For example, to specify Integer data file 15,
element 7 (N15:7), select Nfn as the
Device type
and
enter 015007 as the
Device address
.
