Important Notes on Data Table Files
Read these notes before entering the data table files.
• Input and output data tables are initialized one slot at a time. Therefore, the I/O
configuration, not the value list, determines the data table size for output and
input files.
• The data table files of a MicroLogix 1000 controller are fixed in type and size.
You can use the value list only to initialize or alter the data values of a
MicroLogix 1000 controller.
• You cannot provide initializing data for M0 and M1 files.
• The processor type determines the size of the Status file (S2). The fixed
controllers and SLC 5/01 processors have 16 elements, the SLC 5/02 processors
and MicroLogix 1000 controllers have 33 elements, the SLC 5/03 processors
have 83 elements, the SLC 5/04 OS400 processors have 87 elements, and the
SLC 5/04 OS401 processors have 164 elements. The value list does not alter
the data table size of the Status file (S2). There is no range checking done of
Status file values.
• Y ou can enter a logical address to the element level only . The import utility
ignores subelement and bit addresses. See table 5.Q for an example of valid
and invalid logical addresses.
Table 5.Q
Valid and Invalid Logical Addresses
Valid Logical Addresses: Invalid Logical Addresses:
T4:10 T4:10.PRE
T4:0 T4:0.ACC/10
I1:0 I1:0.3/10
To define the data file, follow these steps:
1. Enter the keyword DATA.
2. Complete the data file using the data file formats shown in table 5.R.
