MAPPING DATA
CRIMSON USER MANUAL - MODULAR CONTROLLER
MAPPING ITEMS TO A BLOCK
Once the block has been created and its size defined, entries appear in the left-hand pane of
the window to represent each of the registers that the block contains. When one of these
entries is selected, the right-hand pane shows a list of available data items comprising module
variables, as well as any other tags you have configured.
To indicate that you want a particular register within your gateway block to correspond to a
particular data item, simply drag that item from the right-hand pane to the left-hand pane,
dropping it on the appropriate gateway block entry. The example above shows the PV
variables of four PID modules mapped to PLC registers N010:0000 through N010:0003.
ACCESSING INDIVIDUAL BITS
To work with individual bits within a word, simply drag and drop a module flag onto a
register. After prompting you for permission to display the word as individual bits, Crimson
will expand the word into those bits. The flag variable will be placed into the first bit position.
You may then map other flags into the remaining exposed bits.
