4. Enter values for Name and Slot, noting that we used the following values.
5. Choose the Connection tab to set the RPI value.
The RPI is selectable since it is a direct connection
6. Enter 20 ms as the RPI for the 1738-IB4M12 module to set how often you
exchange data with the I/O adapter.
Note that the RPI is selectable on the screen and has a default value of
20.0 ms. 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.
Name ArmorPOINT_Digital_Output
Slot 2
IMPORTANT To avoid overloading the 1738-AENT/B adapter, it is recommended
that the RPI be no less than 20 ms.
