3Configuring Global DataSelect the Global Data tab to configure the <strong>Bus</strong> <strong>Controller</strong> to send Global Data.ConfigurationModeFrom AddressData Length(Read-only) the Configuration Mode is always <strong>Manual</strong>.Specify the beginning PLC address from which data will be transmittedon the bus. It can be from %I, %Q, %G, %R, %AI, or %AQ memory.This entry specifies the amount of Global Data to be sent each bus scan.If Global Data will not be used, set Data Length to zero.If bit-oriented memory (%I, %Q, or %G) is selected, this may be 0 to1024 bits. It must be a multiple of 8. If you enter a number that is not amultiple of 8, the software will automatically adjust it upward to the nexthighest multiple of 8. For example, any number between 9 and 15 wouldbe automatically adjusted upward to 16.If word-oriented memory (%AI, %AQ, or %R) is selected, this may be 0to 64 words. If more than 64 words are selected, the softwareautomatically adjusts the length to 64 words. The total amount ofmemory specified must not exceed the configured memory size for thatmemory type.For example, if %R00001 is selected for From Address and the DataLength is set to 4, the block of data would consist of %R00001 through%R00004.To (Optional)If the data is going to be sent to another <strong>Series</strong> <strong>90</strong>-<strong>70</strong> <strong>Bus</strong> <strong>Controller</strong>, thisentry is not needed. The destination memory address is specified as partof the target device's configuration.If the data is going to be transmitted to a <strong>Series</strong> Six PLC or a <strong>Series</strong> FivePLC, enter the beginning register address where the data will be storedin the other PLC. Only one destination address can be specified forGlobal Data sent by each <strong>Bus</strong> <strong>Controller</strong>. If there is more than one<strong>Series</strong> Six and/or <strong>Series</strong> Five PLC on the bus, they must all use thesame register address for Global Data received from this <strong>Bus</strong> <strong>Controller</strong>.For information about selecting and entering a register address for oneof these PLCs, refer to the <strong>Genius</strong> I/O System and CommunicationsUser's <strong>Manual</strong>, GEK-<strong>90</strong>486-1.<strong>GFK</strong>-<strong>2017</strong> Chapter 3 <strong>Bus</strong> <strong>Controller</strong> Configuration 3-5
