module in RSLogix 5000.

AutoConfiguring from the Network
When you perform an autoconfiguration, the module reads the contents
of the network currently connected and stores it in flash memory on the
module and displays it on the screen.
If the network changes, you must do an Autoconfiguration with the new
network so that the configuration in flash matches the network.
Otherwise, the module will not be able to bring mismatched drops
online.
Uploading a Configuration from the 56AMXN
To upload the configuration from a running 56AMXN module in remote
I/O master mode, run 56AmxnRioCfg and select Actions/Upload Config.
56AmxnRioCfg displays the network tree for the network.
The Network Tree
After you autoconfigure or upload from the module, 56AmxnRioCfg
displays a tree structure that shows the drops on the network.
