CGCM Unit Configuration

Once you have added the module, you must schedule the connection to the
CGCM unit with RSNetWorx for ControlNet software.

Electronic Keying

Although the CGCM unit does not physically reside in a ControlLogix chassis,
electronic keying provides protection against module mismatch.

You must choose one of these keying options for the CGCM unit during module
configuration:

Exact match - all of the parameters described below must match or the

inserted module rejects a connection to the controller

Compatible module - a unit with host firmware major revision 3 functions

as a unit with host firmware major revision 2 if so configured when the
new module is created

Disable keying - the inserted module does not reject a connection to the

controller

An I/O module that is connected in a ControlLogix system compares the
following information for itself to that of the original configuration:

Vendor
Product type
Catalog number
Major revision

This feature can prevent the inadvertent operation of a control system if a
CGCM unit is replaced with an incompatible unit.

Device Setup

You must configure the CGCM unit for the unit to function. Configuration tabs
in the module set-up screen divide the required information into sub-categories.
Evaluate the system and generator information to determine the appropriate
configuration settings and use the configuration tabs to enter the settings.

ATTENTION:

Be extremely cautious when using the disable keying

option; if used incorrectly, this option can lead to personal injury or death,
property damage or economic loss.

TIP

Some screens shown in this document can vary slightly from the RSLogix
5000 software that is currently provided. Please review each screen
carefully.
