Date: November 9th, 2022

OVERVIEW

Version 1.0 is the initial revision.
Version 1.1 - Enhanced data integrity
Version 1.2 - Slave Function 5 fix
Version 1.3 - V16 Compatible
Version 1.4 - Fixed Export of Config
Version 1.5 - Fix to Default Config
Version 1.6 - Fix to Compatibilty Issue
Version 1.7 - Resend command if stale
Version 1.8 - Function code 4 swap for firmware 1.15 or lower
Version 1.9 - Built AOI in RSlogix 5000 v16. Previous Version 1.8 was not able to open up in v16, 17, 18 or 19 Rslogix 5000. Built it back again to support v16 and up.
Version 1.10 - Removed retransmission logic

SELECTING THE LADDER FILE

>For CompactLogix version 16.xx.xx or later

RSLogix version 16 introduced the Add-On instruction funcionality that allows
the encapsulation of several ladder rungs into one single instruction. The sample 
ladder logic for v16 uses the Add-On instruction in order to provide a quick and easy
setup procedure for your ILX34-MBS module.
You can import the required components into your existing ladder through the 
ILX34-MBSxx_AddOn_Rung_v1_9.L5X file. 

In order to import the required components into your existing ladder program follow
the steps below:  

1) Create a new RSLogix project for version 20 or later

2) Create a new module 1734-MODULE (I/O Configuration) with the following settings: 

For ILX34-MBS08_AddOn_Rung_v1_9.L5X
Name                            = ILX34MBS
Comm Format                     = Data-SINT
Input Assembly Instance         = 101
Input Assembly Size             = 34
Output Assembly Instance        = 102
Output Assembly Size            = 26
Configuration Assembly Instance = 103
Configuration Assembly Size	= 38

For ILX34-MBS24_AddOn_Rung_v1_9.L5X
Name                            = ILX34MBS
Comm Format                     = Data-SINT
Input Assembly Instance         = 105
Input Assembly Size             = 66
Output Assembly Instance        = 106
Output Assembly Size            = 58
Configuration Assembly Instance = 103
Configuration Assembly Size	= 38

For ILX34-MBS36_AddOn_Rung_v1_9.L5X
Name                            = ILX34MBS
Comm Format                     = Data-SINT
Input Assembly Instance         = 107
Input Assembly Size             = 90
Output Assembly Instance        = 108
Output Assembly Size            = 82
Configuration Assembly Instance = 103
Configuration Assembly Size	= 38

Adjust the Slot and RPI settings(if enabled) for your application.

Note - recommended RPI time is 50.0ms for local rack applications. 

3) Write-click at the rung where the Add-On instruction will be inserted.
Select Import Rung... and select the ILX34-MBSxx_AddOn_Rung_vx_x.L5X file.  During the import 
procedure associate the input and output images with the ones generated 
during step 2 (default is for slot 2). 

4) Once the import procedure is completed the Add-On instruction will be 
displayed at the ladder rung. The procedure has also imported new User-Defined Data types
and New Controller tags. 

5) Verify the project 

6) Save the project

7) Download the project to the ControlLogix processor
