Configuring the I/O

20-COMM-E EtherNet/IP Adapter User Manual

Publication 20COMM-UM010G-EN-P

After resetting the communication module, which may take up to a
minute to complete, the I/O OK box in the upper-left of the RSLogix
5000 window should now be steady green and the yellow warning
symbols

in the treeview under the I/O Configuration folder and drive

profile should be gone.

8. The Module Properties Drive Tab screen re-appears.

You can view the drive’s Parameter List, Diagnostic Items List, and lists
for any connected peripheral, including the 20-COMM-E adapter.
While connected to the drive, you can dynamically change values of
parameters. Diagnostic items and diagram views can be used for
troubleshooting.

Table 7.A on page 7-4

provides diagnostic items for

troubleshooting the adapter.

9. Click OK when finished to close the Module Properties screen for the

drive.

Using the RSLogix 5000 Classic Profile, Versions 13.00…15.00

When compared to using the RSLogix 5000 Generic Profile (all versions),
the RSLogix 5000 Classic Profile provides these advantages:

• Profiles for specific drives (

Figure 4.3

) that provide descriptive controller

tags for basic control I/O words (Logic Command/Status and Reference/
Feedback). The controller tags for Datalinks, however, have
non-descriptive UserDefinedData[n] names.

• Improved I/O configuration—no I/O assembly configuration required.

Basic control I/O is defined, but Datalinks still need to be configured/
mapped.

TIP: If the yellow warning symbol

for your drive remains displayed,

first try power cycling the drive. Otherwise, double-click the drive under
the I/O tree and click the Connection tab to find the cause of the problem.
