Mettler Toledo Inc.
This AOI is intended to be used with the Mettler Toledo Terminal IND560, software version 3 or
greater. The AOI was created using Allen-Bradley RSLogix5000 version 16 and is intended for
RSLogix5000 version 16 or greater.
User requirements:
Users will need an understanding the IND560 Terminal PLC Interface Data Formats and the
Message Slot data layout for Integer or Divisions Data Format.
Applicable Mettler Toledo Terminal PLC interfaces:
Allen Bradley Remote I/O (RIO)
EtherNet/IP (using the RSLogix5000 generic module profile only, input data INT)
Note: The AOI is primarily intended to be used for Allen Bradley Remote I/O (RIO)
communications. The AOI is not intended to be used with an IND560 Add-On Profile,
which would be usable for EtherNet/IP communications.
Applicable Mettler Toledo PLC Data Formats:
Integer
Divisions
AOI provides:
Conversion of integer weight data into an RSLogix5000 Data Type REAL using a parameter
input of the scale terminal Increment Size; the Increment Size must be the same as used for
scale calibration. Or conversion of Divisions weight data into an RSLogix5000 Data Type
REAL using a parameter input of the scale terminal Increment Size and the parameter input
Use_Divisions.
Conversion of the Scale Status integer into sixteen (16) separate RSLogix5000 Data Type
BOOL bits.
Within the RSLogix5000 application program one AOI is used for each input Message Slot.
Adding AOI to RSLogix5000:
Within the RSLogix5000 in the Configuration window right click on Add-On Instructions;
click on Import Instruction; a new window will open, click on
IND560_IntDiv_Input_Data.L5X; click on Import button. AOI will load creating the Add-
On Instruction, a Data Type of the same name as the AOI and a new Tab to the Instruction
Types over the programming screen window. The new Data Type will be included in any
screen requiring Data Type entry. The Instruction will also appear in the window screen
when keyboard inserting a new instruction to the program logic.
