Peer Cop
Overview The Peer Cop extension provides data transfer between two or more controllers on
a peer-to-peer network, as well as linking multiple networks using the S985
communication card. Peer Cop configures data blocks to be continuously
transferred (once per scan) between nodes on a Modbus Plus network. Data can be
broadcast to all nodes on a single link (Global I/O) or between specific Modbus Plus
nodes on a link (Specific I/O).
A maximum of 32 data registers or 512 (for example, 32*16) I/O points can be
transferred to or read from a controller at a time. Peer Cop is supported by the A145
and all E-Series and Quantum controllers. Up to three Links of the Peer Cop can be
configured and edited.
Peer Cop Wizard ProWORX 32 includes a configuration wizard to help you set your Peer Cop
extensions. To access the Peer Cop wizard, see Peer Cop Wizard, p. 118.
Note: If the Peer Cop extension does not appear in the Active Extensions panel, it
is not a valid extension for the current controller type.
