Conducting a site survey remotely can be very useful if the DXM is in a location that is hard to reach in person. Using modbus commands, it is possible to conduct a site survey and read the results over serial or ethernet. This example file allows a register to be changed from a “0” to a “1” to conduct a site survey to a performance node. The results from that site survey is then stored in the DXM’s local registers and can be read remotely. Note this file is only intended for use with the performance radios. These files are also setup for Ethernet/IP.
The associated XML sample programs can be loaded into a DXM150-Bx or DXM100-Bx Wireless Controller.
The Sample Timer XML provides an example of a continuously running timer that resets at different time intervals. It does not require remote radios connected to the DXM1x0 to function. The timer is always running. The DXM display LEDs are enabled by universal input 1 on the DXM100 and isolated input 1 for the DXM150. The input is labeled LED Enable. When the LED Enable inputis active, LEDs 1, 2, and 3 on the DXM turn on for 5, 10, and 20 seconds respectively as defined by Action Rules. The timer automatically resets at 25 seconds, then LEDs 1, 2, and 3 are again turned on. This ongoing timer can be used for OEE applications, etc.
One-shot Timer XML provides an example of a timer sequence started with the rising edge transition of the Input Trigger. The Input Trigger is universal input 1 on the DXM100 and isolated input 1 for the DXM150.
All timer and input values can be observed via the display of the DXM.
