Module-defined Data Types (1771-ACN15 and 1771-ACNR15 Adapters)

This table lists and describes module-defined data types for the 1771-ACN15 and 1771-ACNR15 Adapters. These tables include information for input as indicated by an "I" and output as indicated by an "O".
TIP:
The <input size 2*n+8> in this data type is the number of integers specified as the Input Size on the
General
Tab. For example, a setting of 8 results in a data type that is 24 bytes as shown in the AB:1771_ACN15_24Bytes:I:0 data type in the
Controller Organizer
.
Module-defined Data Type: AB:1771_ACN15_<input size 2*n+8>Bytes:I:0
<input size> is the number of integers specified as the Input Size on the General Tab

DINT
DINT
An atomic data type consisting of a DWORD used to store a 32-bit signed integer value (-2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647).
Binary
0 = Good data
1 = Bad data
InputGroupsValid
DINT
Binary
Bits 0-31 represent I/O groups 0-31.
Bit value of 1 = discrete input module present in that I/O group.
Data
INT[<input size>]
Binary
One 16-bit INT per I/O Group under the adapter for input data points.
TIP:
The <output size 2*n+4> in this data type is the number of integers specified as the Output Size on the
General
Tab. For example, a setting of 8 results in a data type that is 20 bytes as shown in the AB:1771_ACN15_20Bytes:O:0 data type in the
Controller Organizer
.
Module-defined Data Type: AB:1771_ACN15_<output size 2*n+4>Bytes:O:0
<output size> is the number of integers specified as the Output Size on the General Tab
