4. Enter values for Name and Slot, noting that we used the following values.
5. Choose the Connection tab to set the RPI value.
RPI is selectable since it is a direct connection.
Note that the RPI is selectable and has a default value. Because we are
making a direct connection to each I/O module, we must specify an RPI to
determine how often the data is exchanged with the 1738-AENT adapter
for each module.
6. Enter 10 ms as the RPI for the 1734-OV4E module.

IMPORTANT
To avoid overloading the I/O adapters, we recommend that RPI be no
less than 10 ms for rack connections and 50 ms for direct
connections.
