Configure EtherNet/IP Network Using Ethernet Devices Driver
1. Create an Ethernet devices driver in RSLinx software.
2. Add the IP address of the power monitor to the driver station
mapping.
3. Perform an RSWho to verify that RSLinx software is
communicating to the power monitor.
RSLinx software driver configuration is complete.
Configure EtherNet/IP Network Using Ethernet/IP Driver

RSLinx software driver configuration is complete.
RSLinx Classic Software
OPC Server Setup You can setup RSLinx software as an OPC Server to serve data from a
power monitor to an OPC 2.0 compliant application. You must first
setup an RSLinx driver to communicate to the power monitor. You can
then create an OPC topic to serve data to your SCADA application.
Setup OPC Topic
Follow these steps to setup a DDE/OPC topic in RSLinx software for
the power monitor.
1. Open RSLinx software.
IMPORTANT
The power monitor makes a connection to either the RSLinx
Ethernet Devices driver or the Ethernet/IP driver on a single
computer but not both simultaneously.
