Before You Begin
To effectively use your adapter, note the following considerations.
Determine Compatibility
RSLogix 5000™ software version 17, or greater, must be used for the 1734-AENTR
Add-on Profile. The 1734-AENTR adapters will accept I/O connections with electronic
keying for the 1734-AENT. This allows the 1734-AENTR adapter to be used in a
daisy-chain topology with the 1734-AENT profile used for the 1734-AENTR.
If using the adapter with a 1756-ENBT module, 1768-ENBT module or an L3xE
processor, use the following required firmware versions for these bridge modules:
• 1756-ENBT firmware version 4.5 or greater
• 1768-ENBT firmware version 2.1 or greater
• L3xE processor firmware version 17 or greater
If you use the BootP/DHCP utility to assign IP addresses to the adapter, use version 2.3.2
or greater.
Understand Messaging
Class 3 (Explicit Message) requests through the 1734-AENTR adapter to a specific
POINT I/O module do not always receive a response from the I/O modules. In the case
where the I/O module does not reply to the request, the adapter responds with an error
code indicating a time-out.
Configure Autobaud
The adapter cannot reconfigure an I/O module that you previously configured to operate
at a fixed baud rate. When you reuse a POINT I/O module from another POINT I/O
system, configure the module to autobaud before using it with the adapter.
