GE Fanuc | Series 90-30 | IC693PRG300 - GE Fanuc PLC

3Password (ENABLE/DISABLE) ParameterThis parameter lets you enable or disable the password parameter. The default for thisparameter is ENABLE. See Chapter 7 for more information on passwords.CPU ID Parameters ID1, ID2, and ID3The next PLC parameter you can configure is CPU ID parameter ID1. This parameter isthe first of three consecutive parameters used to input a network identification name ona Series 90 protocol network.Each parameter is a 4-digit hexadecimal number. The four hexadecimal digitscorrespond to two ASCII characters; thus, a 6-character identifier is entered twocharacters at a time. If the total identifier consists of less then six characters, all trailingcharacters must be set to the NULL character (ASCII 00H). By default, the PLC is notassigned a network name; all characters are set to NULL.Use the Right cursor key to scroll through the PLC parameters until the first IDparameter is displayed. Enter the key sequence of the ASCII-hex numbers whichcorrespond to the network name you wish to specify. Then, press the ENT key. Followthis same procedure for parameters ID2 and ID3.This parameter has three inputs ID1, ID2, ID3 which combine together to form a 6character ASCII word which gives this CPU a unique identification value. This value isused to identify this CPU when it is connected to a communications bus network whichhas more then one CPU connected on the network.Assume that the network name ABCDE is to be assigned to the PLC. This namecorresponds to the ASCII-HEX sequence 41-42-43-44-45-00.ID1 = 4142 which equals ABID2 = 4344 which equals CDID3 = 45-00 which equals EAlso assume that the previous parameter, MODEM TURNAROUND TIME, is currentlybeing viewed. Press the ‡ key two times to select the ID1 parameter.Initial display:R0:01 PLC
