A conditional command is useful when the same value does not need to be written to the end device continuously, but rather on change. A conditional write command is scanned based upon its poll rate (like all other commands). The difference is that it will not be execut...

Since RSLogix uses signed integers, the highest positive value that can be entered is 32767. To avoid this issue, when specifying higher baud rates, Prosoftmodules only require the first 3 digits of the baud rate. e.g., to enter a baud rate of 38400, enter 384. Use 576 for 5...
