About This Chapter
This chapter describes the various configuration options that you can use to
set up assembly connections.
Configure the Connection
This connection is accepted with or without a configuration assembly present.
If a configuration assembly is present, it must contain the following minimum
information.
Chassis Size
Before establishing I/O connections, you must configure the 1734 adapters
for chassis size. This ensures that the correct number of modules are present
in the chassis at power up. The chassis size must include 1 count for the
adapter (Chassis Size = number of I/O modules + 1).
