8903/IM 8903/IP Ethernet Communications Interfaces
Step 1.2: Attaching Fieldbus Connectors
Seven fieldbus connector types are available:
FB Logic Input FB Integer Input FB Value Input
FB Logic Output FB Integer Output FB Value Output
FB Val to Int Output
Input connector : the data is sent from PLC ¤890
Output connector : the data is sent from 890 ¤PLC
The fieldbus connectors must be added before they will appear in the EtherNet function block.
Note: The function block and connectors can be renamed by using the right mouse button and
selecting Rename Block.
Figure 13. Configuration showing EN Function Block and Fieldbus Connectors

8903/IM 8903/IP Ethernet Communications Interfaces
Step 1.3 : Configuring the Fieldbus Connectors
Double-click on the function block to display the dialog below. The fieldbus connectors (inputs
and outputs) are assignable in the function block along with their data type to/from the PLC.
The Option Slot, 32-bit Order, IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address can also be
selected.
To configure the input and output connectors you have placed in the configuration:
1. Expand the Inputs and Outputs trees to reveal the registers. By default the trees each have
one register. To add more registers click on adjacent to New…
2. Select the drop-down menu in the Input column to choose the required input/output
connector on the Register. For example below, Register 1 "Input" is shown with the
possible fieldbus selections that have been placed in the configuration: FII.1 (Fieldbus
Integer Input 1), FLI.1 (Fieldbus Logic Input 1), FVI.1 (Fieldbus Value Input 1) etc.

12
8903/IM 8903/IP Ethernet Communications Interfaces
3. Select the drop down menu in the Type column to choose the required PLC type on
Register 1, for example.
4. Set up all the input/output registers in a similar way.
5. Set up the option parameters:
"Option Slot" = A (top). The Ethernet TechCard can only be fitted in the OPTION A slot of
the drive. This is the default setting for "Option Slot".
“32bit order” is set to either “Low Word First” or “High Word First”. This refers to how
32-bit data types, i.e. SINT32, UINT32 and FLOAT are encoded on Ethernet. If Ethernet/IP
is being used, this should always be Low Word First. If Modbus/TCP is being used, it
depends on the master.
•Low Word First is sometimes referred to as “Modicon Mode” and is used when the
least significant 16-bits are sent in a lower register number than the most significant
16-bits, i.e. Little-endian.
•High Word First is sometimes referred to as “IEEE Mode” and is used when the most
significant 16-bits are sent in a lower register number than the least significant 16-bits,
i.e. Big-endian.
“IP Address”, “subnet mask” and “gateway” are used to set the IP parameters. If set to
0.0.0.0 they may be configured over Ethernet, e.g. by using the Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP).
Remember:
♦The order and size of the inputs in the DSE Ethernet configuration MUST match the
order and size of the outputs from the PLC configuration.
♦The order and size of the outputs in the DSE ControlNet configuration MUST match
the order and size of the inputs to the PLC configuration.

Conversion of DSE Type < > Ethernet Type
The DSE fieldbus connectors are each assigned an Ethernet "Type" as described in "Step 1.3 :
Configuring the Fieldbus Connectors" on page 11.
The conversion between the DSE type and the PLC type is performed automatically (refer to
Appendix B : DSE/Ethernet Conversion Rules, page 29).
Any PLC type can be assigned to a fieldbus connector.

Step 2: Configuring the PLC/SCADA Supervisor
This section contains examples for configuring a Modicon PLC, an Allen-Bradley PLC and the
TS8000 Operator Interface. The Ethernet Technology Box supports the ModBus/TCP protocol
and the Ethernet/IP protocol.
Modicon Momentum
1. Start a new program and select
the PLC processor and chassis
type used in your project. Our
example uses an M1 980-20
Momentum PLC. Stay offline
until you are ready to
download the program.
2. Place an MSTR block in the
ladder logic. MSTR blocks
move data from the PLC data
table to the drive or from the
drive to the PLC data table.
Two MSTR blocks are
necessary for a Read and Write
operation.
3. Right click over the MSTR
block. This will access the
Register Editor. Use the
Register Editor to configure
the block. The MSTR block
has two types of operations:
Read or Write. The first
register defines the type of
operation. In our case address
40100 is used for write
command and address 40200 is
used for read command. A
value of 1 in the data column
defines a Write operation. A
value of 2 in the data column
defines a Read operation.
Figure 14. PLC Ladder Logic
showing MSTR Blocks
Figure 15. Read Registers

15
8903/IM 8903/IP Ethernet Communications Interfaces
4. The second register contains the error status. Refer to Appendix A for a list of the error
codes. The PLC software also has help files that contain a list of error codes.
5. The third register defines the data length (address 40102 or address 40202). The value
in the data column depends on which parameter set that has been selected in the drive.
The value can be smaller than or equal to the selected parameter set.
6. The fourth register defines the Read and Write locations of the data in the PLC (address
40103 or address 40203). For a Read function, this value is set to 1, and for a Write
function this value is set to 257.
7. Registers 5, 6, 7 and 8 define the IP address on the Ethernet network (address 40104 or
address 40204). Our example shows the data registers starting at locations 40150 and
40250.
8. When using a Modicon PLC, the “32bit Word Order” parameter in the Ethernet
function block must be set to “Low Word First”. This applies to Modicon products and
most other manufactures using the ModBus/TCP protocol.

9. Start a new program and select the PLC processor and chassis type that is used in your
project. Our example uses a 1756-L55A processor and 1756-A7/B rack. Remain Offline
until you are ready to download the program.
10. Using the I/O Configuration insert the Ethernet interface that will be installed. Right click
on the I/O Configuration, select New Module. Our example uses 1756-ENBT/A. Input the
desired IP address and slot in the PLC. Refer to Figures 17 and 18.
