CAT 5MX Addressing

The I/O tag addressing consists of a parameter ID which is specific to the controller type chosen. A drop down list of valid parameter IDs is provided in the address assist for this driver.

I/O Reads

I/O reads can be of type broadcast or single read. Reads configured as broadcast are added to the broadcast list for the CCM and the data will be broadcast at the specified interval. Single reads are requested at the specified interval in a command / response format.

0008:PID

Not all parameter IDs are supported by all models of a controller type. If a parameter ID is added to a broadcast list that is not supported by the controller, then the complete broadcast list will stop. Please refer to CCM documentation for the description, scaling and supported parameter IDs for a controller model

I/O Writes

I/O writes can use only the parameter ID (PID) format.
