Software Installation Principle for the AS-I Bus
Addressing of Inputs and Outputs for Devices Connected to the TBX SAP 10 Module
At a Glance
The addressing of inputs and outputs for AS-i bus devices connected to the Fipio network depends on:
The type of object (%I or %Q),
The number of the AS-i bus,
The AS-i slave number, from 1 to 31,
The rack number, always 0,
The module number, always 0,
The number of the input or output channel.
NOTE: The number of the AS-i bus is calculated automatically by Control Expert. This value cannot be modified.
Example
%I\7.21\0.0.1 indicates: input 1 from the AS-i slave 21 button box of a TBX SAP 10 module at address 7 on the Fipio bus.
%Q\7.16\0.0.2 indicates: output 2 from the AS-i slave 16 illuminated column of a TBX SAP 10 module at address 7 on the Fipio bus.
Illustration:

NOTE: Certain slaves have input or output channels numbered from 1 to 4, while the numbering of the channels in the PLC is still from 0 to 3.
Example of correspondence: %I\..\..0 channel 0 of the slave corresponds to I-1, and %Q\..\..3 channel 3 of the slave corresponds to Q-4.

Introduction to Software Installation
Introduction
The software installation of the module is carried out from the various Control Expert editors:
In offline mode,
And in online mode.
The following order of installation phases is recommended but it is possible to change the order of certain phases (for example, starting with the configuration phase).
Installation with Processor Phase
The table below shows the various phases of installation with the processor.
Phase
Declaration of variables
Programming
Configuration
Description
Declaration of IODDT-type variables for the application-specific modules and variables of the project.
Project programming.
Declaration of AS-i slave devices and modules.
Configuration of AS-i slave devices and modules.
Entry of configuration parameters.
