Configure the Adapter for Direct Connection and Rack Optimization in RSLogix 5000 Software 55

The RPI is selectable, since it is a direct connection.

6. Verify that the requested packet interval (RPI) is appropriate for your

system (10 ms for this example). You use this value for the
rack-optimized connection to the I/O modules.

7. Click OK to accept the configuration.

The 1734-AENT adapter appears indented under the local 1734-ENBT in
the I/O Configuration folder.

Add the POINT I/O Module and Configure For Rack Optimization

1. Right-click the 1734-AENT adapter under the I/O Configuration

folder, and select New Module.

IMPORTANT

To avoid overloading the 1734-AENT adapter, we
recommend that the RPI be no less than 10 ms for rack
connections and 50 ms for direct connections.

IMPORTANT

If you exceed the 1734-AENT chassis size, trying to add
more modules than you configured, the New Module
selection appears dim and is disabled. Increase the
1734-AENT chassis size to add more POINT I/O
modules.
