5.2 PRODUCT SETUP
EGD cannot be used to transfer data between UR-series relays. The relay supports EGD production only. An EGD
exchange will not be transmitted unless the destination address is non-zero, and at least the first data item address is set to
a valid Modbus register address. Note that the default setting value of "0" is considered invalid.
The settings menu for the fast EGD exchange is shown below:

Fast exchanges (50 to 1000 ms) are generally used in control schemes. The C30 has one fast exchange (exchange 1) and
two slow exchanges (exchange 2 and 3).
The settings menu for the slow EGD exchanges is shown below:

 SLOW PROD EXCH 1
 CONFIGURATION
Slow EGD exchanges (500 to 1000 ms) are generally used for the transfer and display of data items. The settings for the
fast and slow exchanges are described below:
• EXCH 1 DESTINATION: This setting specifies the destination IP address of the produced EGD exchange. This is usu-
ally unicast or broadcast.
• EXCH 1 DATA RATE: This setting specifies the rate at which this EGD exchange is transmitted. If the setting is 50 ms,
the exchange data will be updated and sent once every 50 ms. If the setting is 1000 ms, the exchange data will be
