For this example, we have created a ConveyLinx-Ai Family Modules in our Ethernet Tree and added a MSG Instruction to a ladder rung. We named this MSG block “WriteSpeed” and created the Controller Tag for it. With this MSG Instruction we are going to write a value for the Left Motor Speed at Module Address 4:0040. We also created a Controller Tag of data type INT we named “NewSpeed” which will hold the speed value we want to write to the module when we execute the MSG Instruction.
