The entire range of Type, Logical, Parameter (TLP) settings are supported for all Emerson Process Management models/series listed in this manual.

In the following example TLP address, [Equipment1]92,0,3:UINT8 the address components are described in the table below.

TLP Component | Description
--- | ---
[Equipment1] | External Device
92 | Point Type value for 92: Logon Parameters (LOGON)
0 | Logical (location) value for 1
3 | Parameter value for keypad Security Level - Write Enabled
UINT8 | Data type

Details on each TLP can be found in the ROC/FloBoss user manuals and the ROC Plus Protocol Reference from Emerson Process Management.

##### Custom TLP

In the TLP field, enter the TLP. The following valid input formats are available:

- [Equipment1]TT,LL,PP:DATATYPE

- [Equipment1]TT,LL,PP.BIT:DATATYPE

The addresses represent the following components:

TLP Component | Description
--- | ---
[Equipment1] | External Device
TT | Point Type (range 0 to 255)
LL | Logical (range 0 to 255)
PP | Parameter
DATATYPE | Data Type
BIT | Bit range, 0-7, 0-15, or 0-31. Available only for the following data types: BIN, INT8, INT16, INT32, UINT8, UINT16, UINT32.

Valid Data type strings which can be entered in the Address Field are:

Name | Description
--- | ---
AC1 | ASCII 1 character
AC3 | ASCII 3 characters
AC7 | ASCII 7 characters
AC10 | ASCII 10 characters
AC12 | ASCII 12 characters
AC20 | ASCII 20 characters
AC30 | ASCII 30 characters
AC40 | ASCII 40 characters
BIN | Binary 8 bit, or bit address 0-7*.
FL | Single Precision Floating Point
DBL | Double Precision Floating Point
INT8 | 8 bit signed integer, or bit address 0-7*.
INT16 | 16 bit signed integer, or bit address 0-15*.
INT32 | 32 bit signed integer, or bit address 0-31*.
TIME | 32 bit signed integer.
TLP | 24 bit integer in 32 bits
UINT8 | 8 bit unsigned integer, or bit address 0-7*.
UINT16 | 16 bit unsigned integer, or bit address 0-15*.
UINT32 | 32 bit unsigned integer, or bit address 0-31*.

* When you write the bit address, the Display reads the word address corresponding to that of the External Device first. Then, it changes the target bit address among the word data once read and returns the word data to the External Device. Note that the correct data may not be read if you change the word address value in the ladder program while the Display reads the data of the External Device and returns it to the External Device.

NOTE

- When creating external variables, match them to the data type and data size of the External Device. If the data type or data size differs, data cannot be read or written correctly.
