Chapter 1 Overview of the 1738 ArmorPOINT I/O EtherNet/IP Adapter

Mixing Rack-optimized and Direct Connections

You can mix communication formats for different I/O modules communicating
through the same adapter. I/O modules set up to use rack optimization
communicate at the rate of the RPI configured for the adapter. I/O modules
configured for direct communication communicate at their own individual RPIs
and ignore the rack-optimized RPI.

Chapter Summary

In this chapter, you were introduced to the features of the ArmorPOINT I/O
Adapter, and considerations for installation and usage.
