Communicating with Devices on a ControlNet Link 7-5
Configuring Remote I/O The DriveLogix controller supports remote I/O over a ControlNet link.
Configuring I/O in a remote chassis is similar to configuring local I/O. The
difference is that you must also configure the communication daughtercard
(1788-CNx) in the local chassis and the communication module in the
remote chassis.
To configure a remote I/O module:
1. In the Controller Organizer, select the I/O Configuration Folder. Add and configure a 1788-CNx communication daughtercard. This is the
local communication daughtercard.
3. Specify the slot number (1 or 2) where you installed
the communication daughtercard.
