HI WS100 CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE
4-2
NOTE: If you are using RSLogix 500, the HI 1746-WS (in
local mode) is configured as an “Other” card with an
I/O module ID code of 13635, M0 and M1 lengths are
128.
NOTE: If you are using RSLogix 500, the HI 1746-WS (in
remote mode) is configured as an “Other” card with
an I/O module ID code of 3235, with two input words
and two output words. In remote mode the HI 1746-
WS has no M files. Instead, it has files inside that cor-
respond to the 32 word I and O files of the local mode
HI 1746-WS, and to its M files. These files are called
“logical” files, meaning that they perform the func-
tion of the I,O, and M files in the local mode but are
not directly accessible through the SLC backplane.
Step 8. Double click on the HI WS100 Icon on
your Windows Desktop. The HI WS100
will automatically launch RSLinx.
NOTE: If you are starting HI WS100 for the first time you will
get a “Communication Failure” message. Don’t
worry about this message at this time. The Comm
Setup has not been configured yet. Once the HI
WS100 has been configured correctly the “Communi-
cation Failure” message goes away.
Step 9. The Intro Sheet displays with the setup
instructions in a text field. (See Fig. 4-1)
Scroll through the Text field and read the
instructions for setting up the HI 100WS
Configuration Software before starting the
setup procedures.
