Configure the Adapter for Direct Connection
and Rack Optimization in RSLogix 5000
Software
Overview This chapter guides you through the steps required to configure your AENTR
adapter with both direct and rack-optimized I/O connections using
RSLogix 5000 software.
You can mix I/O connection formats for different I/O modules communicating
through the same adapter. I/O modules set up to use rack optimization
communicate at the rate of the RPI configured for the adapter.
I/O modules controlled by a direct I/O connection communicate at their own set
RPI. The RPI of the rack-optimized I/O connection has no bearing on the direct
I/O connections. The modules presented in this chapter have a configuration
using RSLogix 5000 software, revision 11. The chapter contains the following
main sections
