What This Appendix

Contains

To communicate with your 1734-AENT adapter over your network you must
configure the RSLinx EtherNet/IP driver (AB_ETH/IP). You need one of
these drivers to download the example application programs in this manual.

See the table for a list of the contents of this appendix and where to find
specific information:

Install the RSLinx Software

Use this procedure to install RSLinx software on your computer.

1. Insert the CD in the CD-ROM drive.

Note that the CD-ROM supports Windows Autorun. Once inserted
into the CD-ROM drive, if you have Autorun configured, the
installation automatically starts at the first setup screen.

If Autorun is not configured for your CD-ROM drive, go to
step 2.

2. From the Start menu, choose Run.

The Run dialog appears.

3. Type d:/setup (if it doesn’t appear automatically), where d: is your

CD-ROM driver letter.

4. Click OK.

You see the progress bar, followed by the welcome screen.
