Access Module Data via
the 1738-AENT/B Adapter Use the following information for 1738 ArmorPOINT I/O Ethernet adapter
data in the ladder logic program.
• ArmorPoint_IO_Adapter = the name you gave to your Ethernet adapter
• # = slot number of ArmorPOINT I/O adapter
• C = configuration, I = input, O = output
Use the controller tags in your ladder program to read input data or write output
data.
• For RSLogix 5000 programming instructions, refer to EtherNet/IP
Modules in Logix5000 Control Systems User Manual, publication
ENET-UM001
• For ControlLogix controller information, refer to ControlLogix System
User Manual, publication
1756-UM001 .
• Slot Status Bits display the connection status for each of the
ArmorPOINT I/O modules that use a rack-optimized connection. Bit 0 is
reserved for the adapter and always reports a value of 1. Each of the other
bits (1 to 63) correspond to an ArmorPOINT I/O module that is installed
in the ArmorPOINT I/O backplane. Note that in this example, the
1738-AENT/B adapter is configured for both rack-optimized and direct
connections. The slot status bits indicate that the modules in slot 1 and
slot 2 are installed and operating correctly (0=module participating with
no errors and 1=module not participating or connection error (typically,
module removed/missing)).
Chapter Summary In this chapter, you learned how to configure the 1738-AENT/B adapter using a
rack-optimizated and direct connection. The following chapter describes the
LED status indicators.
These values indicate that slot 1 and
slot 2 are participating in the rack
optimized connection with no errors.
