the 1756-CNBR/D option is selected.

In the Select Major Revision pop-up dialog box, select the major revision
of its firmware.

8.

Click OK.

The bridge’s New Module dialog box appears.

9.

Edit the following:

10.

Click OK.

The bridge is now configured for the ControlNet network, added to the
RSLogix 5000 project, and appears in the I/O Configuration folder.

In our example, a 1756-CNBR/D bridge appears under the I/O
Configuration folder with its assigned name. For convenience, keep the
project open. Later in this chapter the project will need to be downloaded
to the controller.

Box

Setting

Name

A name to identify the ControlNet bridge.

Description

Optional – description of the ControlNet bridge.

Node

The node address of the ControlNet bridge.

Slot

The slot of the ControlNet bridge in the rack.

Revision

The minor revision of the firmware in the ControlNet bridge. (You already set the major
revision by selecting the scanner series in step 7.)

Electronic
Keying

Compatible Keying. The ‘Compatible Keying’ setting for Electronic Keying verifies that
the physical module is consistent with the software configuration before the controller
and bridge make a connection. Therefore, be sure that you have set the correct revision in
this dialog box. See the online Help for additional information on this and other
Electronic Keying settings. If keying is not required, select ‘Disable Keying’. Disable Keying
is recommended.

Open Module
Properties

When this box is checked, clicking OK opens additional module properties dialog boxes to
further configure the bridge. When unchecked, clicking OK closes the bridge’s New
Module dialog box. For this example, uncheck this box.
