Module Properties - General for Embedded SERCOS Interface
Use this tab to create/view module properties for the embedded SERCOS interface motion module that is automatically added to your I/O configuration when you choose the 1756-M60M03SE controller.
Parameters
Type
Displays the type and description of the module being created (read only).
Vendor
Displays the vendor of the module being created (read only).
Parent
Displays the name of the parent module.
Name
Enter the name of the module.
The name must be IEC 1131-3 compliant. This is a required field and must be completed; otherwise you receive an error message when you exit this tab. An error message is also displayed if a duplicate name is detected, or you enter an invalid character. If you exceed the maximum name length allowed by the software, the extra character(s) are ignored.
IEC-61131 Name Standard
(The names are composed per IEC-61131, section 2.1.2.)
An identifier is a string of letters, digits, and underline characters that begin with a letter or underline character. Underlines are significant in identifiers (for example, A_BCD is interpreted differently than AB_CD). Multiple leading or multiple (consecutive) embedded underlines are not allowed, trailing underlines are not allowed, and letter case is not considered significant.
TIP:
In Logix Designer, most component names are limited in length to 40 characters or less.
Description
Enter a description for the module here, up to 128 characters. You can use any printable character in this field. If you exceed the maximum length, the software ignores any extra character(s).
Slot
Enter the slot number in which the module resides.
