Module Configuration by Using a MicroLogix 1500 System and RSLogix 500 Software Appendix E
Configuring the 1769-IT6
Module in a
MicroLogix 1500 System This example takes you through configuring your 1769-IT6 thermocouple/mV
input module with RSLogix 500 programming software, assumes your module is
installed as expansion I/O in a MicroLogix 1500 system, and that RSLinx
software is properly configured and a communication link has been established
between the MicroLogix processor and RSLogix 500 software.
Start RSLogix 500 software and create a MicroLogix 1500 application.
While offline, double-click the Read IO Configuration icon under the controller
folder. This IO Configuration dialog box appears.
This dialog box lets you manually enter expansion modules into expansion slots,
or to automatically read the configuration of the controller. To read the existing
controller configuration, click Read IO Config.
