2. Select File > New to display the New Controller screen.

a. Choose the appropriate choices for the fields in the screen to match

your application.

b. Click OK.

The RSLogix 5000 window reappears with the treeview in the left
pane.

New Module.

The Select Module screen appears.

4. Expand the Communications group to display all of the available

communication modules.
