So, I have a 1771-IFE set up for 16 single-ended analog inputs. Currently only 7 of them are being used. We need to add 5 more inputs.
This is my current config
BTR Block Transfer Read:
BTR Block Transfer Write
I read through the user manual for the 1771-IFE, and the BTR/BTW instruction help file, but I am still confused. First of all, what is the difference between the Control Block and the Data File?
About the only thing that I have figured out is that the current input data currently resides at N7:14, :15, :16, :17, :18, :19, :20. After properly setup, the new data will be at :21, :22, :23, :24 and :25. I think there will be some overlap though.
So, according to the manual I'll need to change the lengths from 11 and 19 to 16 and 29, respectively. I think there will be some overlap though.
Can someone help?
Thanks!
Happy Holidays!
