3.0 Configuration Procedure
3.1 Configuration Procedure for 520, 720i, 820i, 920i and PLC
The following steps describe a typical procedure used to configure EtherNet/IP for an
820i
or
920i
indicator and
a PLC. EtherNet/IP can be configured using either your web browser or the CompactLogix L32D controller with
RSLogix 500 software. Figure 3-1 shows the configuration screen using your web browser.

The following example uses the Compact Logix L32E controller with RSLogix 5000 software, both from
Rockwell Automation.
1. Use iRev ( 920i ) or Revolution III ( 520 , 720i , or 820i ) to configure the scales and scale capacities for the
indicator.
2. Calibrate each scale and load any custom program required.
3. Power down the indicator. Install the EtherNet/IP option card (PN 87803). Write down the MAC address
shown on the back of the card.
4. Connect the EtherNet/IP option card to the network.
5. Use the MAC address on the back of the card and IPCONFIG Ethernet Configurator software to assign
an IP Address to the Ethernet I/P card. Note that the IPCONFIG needs to be loaded on a PC that is on the
same network as the Ethernet I/P card.
6. Load RSLogix 5000 onto the same PC running
iRev
or
Revolution III
.
7. Load RSLinx and configure and Comm Driver driver.
8. Use the RS-232 connector to connect the PC to the PLC.
9. Configure the I/O Configuration outlined in the RSLogix manual (1769-UM011E-EN-P, available on the
Rockwell Automation website,
www.rockwellautomation.com
).
10. Use the
Generic Ethernet Module
to add the indicator with EtherNet/IP to the I/O configuration; assign a
name as shown in Figure 3-2 on page 7.
11. The module connection parameters are:
Input assembly inst. = 100 Size =4 
Output assembly inst. = 150 Size =4 
Configuration assembly inst. = 1 Size =0 
Data type is int.
