Items

Description

Command Type

The fields in this column list the command type.

Output Type

Select the type of output command. The choices are:

  • Latched. The status point remains toggled after the command is executed.

  • Momentary. The status point is changed only for the duration of the command signal.

  • SBO. Select before operate.

Coordinates

Enter the coordinates where the data is mapped within the remote. This mapping depends on the protocol used.

Some protocols use registers to allocate data in remote memory, others use a definition of the point or file number for access. Representative data mappings and point configuration are described for various protocols in RealTime. Refer to your specific remote or protocol documentation for a definition of the data mappings and to determine the remote’s input/output data location in memory.

Command

Select one of the following options:

  • Energize. Energize the relay coil.

  • De energize. De-energize the relay coil.

Timeout (msec)

Enter the timeout associated with the command (in milliseconds). This is dependent on the protocol, but this value is typically set to the time needed to close the contacts for a momentary release.
