Configuring the Module

a maximum of 31 words (

Table 3.B

).

For additional information on configuring the I/O image size, refer to

Chapter 4

,

Understanding the I/O Image

.

The 1769-SM2 module stores parameters and other information in its
own non-volatile memory. You must, therefore, access the module to
view and edit its parameters. The following tools can be used to access
the module parameters:

TIP: When using Multi-Drive mode, it is recommended to set the I/O
size to 31 Input words and 31 Output words. This accommodates up to 5
drives per channel, even if a channel is left unused for future use.
Configure a smaller I/O size only if there is a limited amount of I/O
available on a controller.
