Communication

Chapter 9

For an explicit message using a DeviceNet or ControlNet network, only the
communication path changes, as shown below.

Path

This field specifies the communication path from the controller to the power
monitor. Set-up the path as <Backplane (always 1), Slot of Communication
Module, Port (2 for Ethernet and DeviceNet networks), power monitor IP
Address or DeviceNet address>.

Communication Method

For PLC-5 and SLC Typed Reads, this always defaults to CIP.

RSLogix 5000 Software – PLC-5 or SLC Typed Write Message Setup
