When using the E3 Plus Overload it may necessary to monitor/change values in that device that are not available from the scanlist list (data that is mapped to the scanner).

With the use of explicit messaging this can be done in a efficient manner especially if the change is to be done by a maintenance person who does not have much experience with RSNetworx or with an HMI application.

We will be using the 193-EC2AB at node 8. Double click node 8 to show the properties and select the parameters tab as shown on the next page.
