Local Slave Configuration Example

Introduction

Use these instructions to create a simple local slave configuration that includes a network scanner (originator, O) and a BMENOC0301 that is enabled as a local slave (target, T).

NOTE: This example uses a BMENOC0301 module. Use the same instructions for other M580 communications modules (like the BMENOC0311 or BMENOC0321).

Originator and Target Devices

This simple network shows the enabled local slave and the master device:

BMENOC0301: This Ethernet communication module is in slot 3 of the local M580 rack. In this example, you will enable this module as a local slave device (or target, T).

Modicon M340 rack: In this example, the scanner (or originator, O) on this rack scans the CPU data on the M580 rack through the enabled local slave (BMENOC0301).
