Use RSLogix 5000 Software
The RSLogix 5000 software add-on profile (AOP) lets you set up an I/O (CIP)
connection to the switch, and configure and monitor the switch.
Follow this procedure to add the switch to the controller’s I/O tree.
1. Open the project file for the controller that will be monitoring the
switch.
2. Select the Ethernet module through which the controller will
communicate with the switch.
In this example, the switch communicates through a 1769-L32E
CompactLogix EtherNet/IP controller.
1. Add the switch to the project.
a. Right-click on the Ethernet port you created and choose New
Module.
b. Click Communications.
IMPORTANT
These steps are required before you can go online to configure
and monitor the switch.
