Configuring the RS-232 Port for the ControlNet Interface
If you need to communicate with your SLC 500 processor via a
ControlNet network, you must install a 1747-KFC15 ControlNet
interface module in the chassis with your processor. You can use
either a SLC 5/04 or a SLC 5/05 processor. The 1747-KFC15 module
connects to the SLC 500 processor via the processor’s RS-232 port
(channel 0).
Installing the ControlNet
RS-232 Interface Module To communicate with the SLC 500 processor via a ControlNet
network, you must install a 1747-KFC15 ControlNet RS-232 interface
module in the 1746 I/O chassis close to the processor.
Configuring the 1747-KFC15 Module’s RS-232 Port
The RS-232 serial port on the 1747-KFC15 module is configured by
using three banks (S1, S2, and S3) of DIP switches mounted on the
module’s printed circuit board.
TIP
You can use your RSLogix 500 programming software to set the
SLC 5/04 processor’s RS-232 channel configuration.
IMPORTANT
The communication parameters of 1747-KFC15 module must
match those of the SLC 500 processor.
