TM5SE1RS2 Communication Module
The TM5SE1RS2 communication module is used to connect devices using RS232 communications.
This communication module can only be used with the TM5NS31 Sercos interface module.
Adding the TM5SE1RS2 Communication Module
Step |
Action |
---|---|
1 |
In the Devices tree, drag and drop the Modicon LMC078 Motion Controller. |
2 |
Drag and drop the TM5SE1RS2 on the SERCOSIII (SERCOS III Interface) node. Result: The TM5NS31 is automatically added with the TM5SE1RS2. |
Description of TM5SE1RS2 Parameters
Double-click the TM5SE1RS2 (TM5SE1RS2) node. There are three tabs:
oSERCOS III Module I/O Mapping: Channels to configure.
oUser Parameter: Parameters to configure.
oInformation: Information about the TM5SE1RS2.
SERCOS III Module I/O Mapping Tab
The input and output channels of the module are mapped to project variables that are used by the application.
