The Set and Clear Owner function allows a terminal to "own" one or more processor files on the
network. Ownership means that as long as the owner is active on the network, other terminals can not
access the on-line functions of the owned processor files. Note that only a programmer can own a node.
In the following example, station 1 is owned by node 0. Notice station node 1 has a max. address 31
followed by a forward slash and then the ownership node. If you see this on the display, a
QUICKPANELcannot write to that station. You must clear the owner.

SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 Channel 0 Connection
The SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 processors let you operate DF1 communication protocol by means of the
RS-232 communication port, channel 0. In addition, the SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 processors support
DH485 communication via channel 0.
The 9-Pin connector on the SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 processors is programmable. The SLC 5/03 and
SLC 5/04 processors can be configured for port-to-port connection using the HMI-CAB-C52 cable.
Channel 0 must be set up as a DH485 master. This configuration can only read/write variables in the
local PLC. Since it is not dependent on network loading, this configuration will provide quick display
updates.

SLC 5/04 Data Highway Plus
Data Highway Plus implements peer-to-peer communication with a token-passing scheme to rotate link
mastership among a maximum of 64 nodes. Since this method does not require polling, it helps provide
time-efficient reliable data transport.
The SLC 5/04 processor lets you operate DH+ communication protocol by means of the DH+
communication channel 1. The SLC 5/04 also supports full-duplex DF1 protocol using the DF1
channel 0.
The 3-pin connector is for actual DH+ communication and the 8-pin connector is for monitoring DH+
communication.
The DH+ LED provides an indication of the condition of the network communication. The color can be
green or red. A steady on condition indicates the processor is actively communicating on the network.
Flashing green indicates there are no active nodes on the network. Flashing red indicates there are
duplicate nodes on the link with the same node address.

SLC 500 Tag Variables for DH485 Protocol
The following chart lists the legal tag variable names that can be used with the SLC 500 series. The
target display talks to the SLC500 using the DH485 protocol. The DH485 protocol requires each
device to have a node address. The Source ID is the target display node address and the Destination ID
is the node address for the SLC. (See the "Setup for using an AB SLC 500 PLC" section for details
about entering the source and destination ID's).
When there is a single point connection between a target display and a SLC500, the destination ID
(node address for SLC) becomes the default address for all variables. That is, if you use the tag variable
N7:100, the target display knows that this variable is located at the destination node address.
When the target display is connected to a DH485 network that includes multiple SLC nodes, there is an
optional variable naming element that will allow you to read information from any SLC node. The
additional element is _D, where the underscore D indicates a node address other than the Destination
ID node address.
In this example, the Source ID (target display address) has been set to 0 and the Destination ID (SLC
node address) has been set to 1. There is an additional SLC on the DH485 network located at node
address 3. To read information from node address 1, the variable would be N7:100. Remember that the
Destination ID is the default node address. To read information from node address 3, the variable
would be N7:100_3. The general format for tag variables is shown below.
N7:100/00_D Destination Node Address
Bit Address

File Type
SLC 500 Tag Variables for DH+ Protocol
The DH+ tag variables are the same as the PLC5 tag variables except for the following items.
1. You cannot read or write Input (I) or Output (O) variables in the SLC 5/04.
2. The SLC 5/04 can read/write string variables (ST) while the PLC 5 cannot.

Additional Information
Network Performance
The following are major configuration factors that have a significant effect on network performance:
•The number of nodes on the link
•The addresses of those nodes
•The maximum node address selection
The number of nodes on the link directly affects the data transfer time between nodes. Unnecessary
nodes slow the data transfer rate. The maximum number of nodes on the link is 32.
The best link performance occurs when node addresses start at 0 and are assigned in sequential order.
Also, initiators such as personal computers should be assigned the lowest numbered addresses to
minimize the time required to initialize the link. If all nodes are expected to be connected at all times,
this is really all you need to do.
The maximum node address parameter should be set as low as possible. This minimizes the amount of
time used in soliciting successors when initializing the link. If all nodes are addressed in sequence from
0, and the maximum node address is equal to the address of the highest addressed node, the token
rotation will improve by the amount of time required to transmit a solicit successor packet plus the slot
timeout value.
NOTE - The SLC500 processors set the maximum node address to 31 when power is cycled increasing
initialization and response time of the link.
DH-485 Cable
The suggested DH-485 communication cable is BELDEN #9842 cable. The cable is jacketed and
shielded with two twisted wire pair and a drain wire.
DH-485 Connections
One (only one) of the Link Couplers at the end of the link must have Terminals 1 and 2 of the link
connector jumpered together. This provides an Earth Ground connection for the shield of the
communications cable.
Link Couplers at both ends of the link must have Terminals 5 and 6 of the link connectors jumpered
together. This connects the termination impedance that is built into each link coupler as required by the
DH-485 specification.

CAUTION Do NOT use this protocol with QP1 devices. It is designed to be used with

The SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 processors let you operate DF1 communication protocol by means of the

Advanced Interface Converter AIC+
The AIC+ (Advanced Interface Converter, 1761-NET-AIC) provides a simplified, cost effective
solution for connecting RS-232 devices to DH-485 networks. Use the AIC+ for communications
connectivity with the MicroLogix 1000 DH-485 networking series controller. The AIC+ is also a good
choice for providing point-to-point RS-232 isolation.
The AIC+ can replace the 1747-PIC/1747-AIC combination when using channel 0 of an SLC 5/03 or
SLC 5/04 processor to access DH-485 or DF1 master-slave networks.
When connecting a QuickPanel to the AIC+ DH485 Port3, you must use the AB SLC DH485 protocol.

Connecting to a PLC-2 Program Port
HMI-CAB-C90
This cable is used to connect the target display to an Allen-Bradley PLC-2 PLC.
A label is placed on each end of the cable to indicate which device should be connected to that end.
One of the labels will also indicate the cable part number so you can quickly verify you are using the
right cable for your application. You can make your own cable using the following wiring diagram.
