ControlLogix Controller
Example

After the option module is configured, the drive and option module will be a
single node on the network. This section provides the steps needed to configure a
simple ControlNet network (see

Figure 5

). In our example, we will configure a

ControlLogix controller with 1756-CNBR (Series D) bridge to communicate
with a drive using Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and 32
Datalinks (16 to read and 16 to write) over the network.
