Configuring the 842 E encoder using
RSLogix 5000
This chapter guides you through the steps required to configure your encoder
using RSLogix 5000 software. Note that the modules presented in this chapter
are configured using RSLogix 5000 software, version 20.
Example: setting up the
hardware
In this example, a CompactLogix™ chassis contains the L35E processor in slot 1
and a built-in EtherNet/IP connection. The encoder is connected to a Stratix
6000 ethernet switch.
To work along with this example set up your system as shown.
•
Verify the IP addresses for your programming terminal and 842E encoder.
•
Verify that you connected all wiring and cabling properly.
•
Be sure you configured your communication driver (for example,
AB_ETH-1 or AB-ETHIP-1) in the RSLinx
®
software.
