Configuring the I/O

1.

From the Communications menu in the RSLogix 5000 dialog box, choose
Download.

The Download dialog box appears.

2.

Click Download to download the configuration to the controller.

When the download is successfully completed, RSLogix 5000 software
goes into the Online mode and the I/O OK box in the upper-left of the
dialog box should be steady green.

3.

From the File menu, choose Save.

If this is the first time you saved the project, the Save As dialog box appears.
a. Navigate to a folder.
b. Type a file name.
c. Click Save to save the configuration as a file on your computer.

4.

Configure any Datalinks in the drive that were enabled in the controller
and adapter during I/O configuration.

Each Datalink being used must be assigned to a specific parameter in the
drive or connected peripheral (see

Setting a Master-Slave Hierarchy on

page 32

or

Custom Peer I/O Configuration on page 36

). If this is not

done, the controller will receive or send placeholder data instead of actual
drive or peripheral parameter values.

5.

Place the controller in Remote Run or Run Mode.

TIP

If a message box reports that RSLogix 5000 software is unable to go
online, find your controller in the Who Active dialog box. From the
Communications menu, choose Who Active. After finding and
selecting the controller, click Set Project Path to establish the path. If
your controller does not appear, you need to add or configure the
EtherNet/IP driver with RSLinx software. See

Using RSLinx Classic on

page 45

and RSLinx online help for details.
