| Add | Add an object into PDOCustom slaveclick to add an object to an existing or a new PDO.a list with all available dictionary object appear(*).check Split single bits if you want to generate one row for each bit.select the parameter to add.click ok.Generic slaveclick to add an object to an existing or a new PDO.an input dialog appear. Enter values:Object index (hex): the parameter index, es: 6000Object subindex (hex): the parameter subindex, es: 1Type IEC: the type of the parameter, es: USINTSplit single bits: if checked generate one row for each bit in type. In this example generates 8 rows to map 8 BOOL variablesObject description: the description of the object, es: First Input Blockclick ok.A new row will be added at the end of the list with the selected object.The new item is added after the last element of the last PDO (see Bit’ column field).If it does not fit into last PDO (max 64 bit) it is automatically put in a new PDO (see PDO column field).(*) available items in mappable object list must be defined as mappableon PDO in EDS configuration file. |
| Remove | Remove current object from PDOselect the PDO object element to remove.click Remove.If the element removed is a splitted bit row, the entire type block is removed.PDOs are not refactored after remove. An hole in PDO configuration remains and should be filled or other elements must me updated (by PDO and Bit field setting). |
| Assign | Bind a variable for current PDO objectselect the row in which to map an IEC variableclick Assigna list with all available variables is shows: global variables, same size of the PDO element typeif you click on Show all checkbox mapped variables of the same size of the PDO element type appears in the listselect variable to useclick OKSelected variable is put into Label field. You can use this variable into PLC code. This variable value will be sent by master in TPDO.If variable is global, it is mapped into fieldbus datablock. See DataBlock field.If variable was already mapped, the address remains the same. See DataBlock field. Mapped variable cannot be on a readonly datablock. |
| UnAssign | Unbind variable from current PDO objectselect the row in which an IEC variable to remove from mapping is set (Label is specified)click UnAssignLabel field and DataBlock fields are now empty. Unassigned variable is set as automatic variable. |
