Connect to the Module Via the USB Port

The module has a USB device port that uses a Series B receptacle. To use the
USB port, you must have RSLinx software, version 2.51 or higher, installed on
your computer.
Use a USB cable to connect your computer to the USB port. The connection
lets you download programs to controllers and configure modules directly
from your computer.

WARNING

The USB port is intended for temporary local programming purposes only and
is not intended for permanent connection. If you connect or disconnect the USB
cable with power applied to this module or any device on the USB network, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
A Samtec Inc. RSP-119350 USB cable is required to maintain hazardous
location certifications.

IMPORTANT

• The USB port is designed for a temporary connection only.
• The USB cable is not to exceed 3.0 m (9.84 ft) and must not contain hubs.
