Configuring the I/O
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 Not Responding box in the upper-
left of the dialog box should be flashing green. Also, a yellow warning
symbol
should be displayed on the I/O Configuration folder in the
treeview and on the drive profile because the connections have not yet
been scheduled with the RSNetWorx for ControlNet software.
If the controller was in Run Mode before clicking Download, RSLogix
5000 software prompts you to change the controller mode back to Remote
Run. In this case, choose the appropriate mode for your application. If the
controller was in Program Mode before clicking Download, this prompt
will not appear.
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.
To be sure that present project configuration values are saved, RSLogix
5000 software prompts you to upload them. Click Yes to upload and save
the values.
Correlate the Drive with the Controller
You must now correlate the drive settings to the RSLogix 5000 project I/O
settings so that they match. This requires loading the project I/O settings into
the drive.
1.
In the treeview under I/O Configuration, right-click the drive profile (for
this example, ‘My_PowerFlex_755_Drive’) and choose Properties.
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
ControlNet driver with RSLinx software. See
and the RSLinx online help for details.
