Configuring a Module Connection

Next, you need to configure a module connection for the 1746-NI8 8-input
analog module. If the previous window is still open, click Apply, then OK to
accept the rack connection.

Right click on the 1746-NI8 module in the Scanlist Configuration window and
select Insert Connection. A Connection Properties window again appears. Choose
Exclusive Owner for the Connection Name.

In this case choose M-file addresses for the 8-input analog module. The NI8
module must use Class 3 operation in a 1747-ACN15 chassis. It requires 12
output words and 16 input words. M-file words are used for this in the
1747-SCNR. M0:3.3 through M0:3.14 are used for the 12 output words to
configure the module. M1:3.3 through M1:3.18 are used for the input
information, including actual analog data and analog channel status. Refer to
your 1746-NI8 User’s Manual for additional information on this module.

M-file words M1:3.0 through M1:3.2 and M0:3.0 through M0:3.2 are
reserved. The next available Status Address is M1:3.600/02 since bits 0 and 1
are used by the 1747-SCNR for the rack connection. The Connection Properties
window for the module connection should look like the following.
