Where do I input the parameters for my HI 1756WS?

Where do I go to input the parameters for the HI 1756WS or HI 1756-2WS module?

In the HI 1756 WS module, the parameters are written to the module using the WRITEPARAM command.  This command uses a MSG instruction which designates a Source Tag.  This Source Tag is the location holding the parameters being written to the module.  

If you look at our sample code for writing commands to the module, you will find that this Source Tag is a user defined type tag that holds all the parameters being written to the module.  If you do not have the sample code, you can go to our web site at www.hardysolutions.com and click on support>online support>sample programs and download the sample code for your HI 1756WS or HI 1756-2WS.

You, as the programmer, designate what the Source Tag is and what type of tag it is.  Also, you are in control of what the values within the tag are.  If, when you do the WRITEPARAM command, the status comes back as a non-zero value, the value returned would be the index number of the parameter that is out of tolerance.  These indexes are from 1 to 17 as listed in the table on page 4-6 & 4-7 of the manual.
