Configuring the I/O

Chapter 4

The Save Configuration dialog box appears.

d. Click OK to download the I/O configuration to the bridge.

Using the RSLogix 5000 Generic Profile, All Versions

We recommend that you only use the basic RSLogix 5000 software Generic
Profile for any of the following reasons:

A specific drive profile in other versions of RSLogix 5000 software is
unavailable.

Users are already familiar with a Generic Profile and do not want to
convert an existing project to a drive Add-on Profile (RSLogix 5000
software, version 16.00 or later).

A project must maintain specific revision level control.

The controller cannot be taken offline. RSLogix 5000 software, version
16.00 or later, enables the drive Generic Profile to be added while the
controller is online and in the Run mode.

Add the Drive/Option Module to the I/O Configuration

To transmit data between the bridge and the drive, you must add the drive as a
child device to the parent bridge.

1.

In the treeview, right-click the bridge and choose New Module to display
the Select Module dialog box.

In our example, we right-click the 1756-CNBR/D bridge.

TIP

When both Save Type choices are available, we recommend to click
‘Optimize and re-write schedule for all connections’.
