Configuring the Rt2RtScanner Configuration Point

There is no device-dependent information to be supplied in the scan config point for the Rt2RtScanner, other than the name of the scan task -- Rt2RtScanner -- and its capability -- 0 = poll/PRBX only.

The following table reviews the contents of the scan tasks table attribute in the scan config point:

  Field Number Field Name DE Type Possible Values
Required 0 scan task name rtBYTES16 "Rt2RtScanner"
1 capability rtUINT32 0=polled/PRBX
Optional .      
.      
.       

Pathname -  . . . :scan configuration:Line_1
Point Name - Line_1
            
Alias - LINE 1
  AIN Attribute Name Type DE Type Possible Values
Device Independent (required) 0 communication mode scalar rtLOGICAL 0=polled/PRBX
1 device type scalar rtUINT8 0 to 255
2 control scalar rtLOGICAL 0=disabled, 1=enabled
3 status scalar rtUINT8 §Communication Port Point
4 retry count scalar rtUINT8 0 to 255
5 reply timeout scalar rtUINT16 0 to 65,535
6 poll types table    
7 PRBX types table    
8 CE overlap scalar rtLOGICAL 0=disabled, 1=enabled
9 msg queue status scalar rtUINT8 0, 1, or 2
Device Dependent (RTAP to RTAP scan task specific) 10 optimize scalar rtLOGICAL 0=no opt., 1=opt.
