Installing the Add-on Profile

Introduction

This appendix shows how to install the add-on profile (AOP) of the
encoder with the RSLogix 5000 program. Add-on profiles are files that
users add to their Rockwell Automation library. These files contain the
pertinent information for configuring a device that will be added to the
Rockwell Automation network.

The add-on profile simplifies the configuration of devices because it
presents the necessary fields in an organized fashion, which allows users
to set up and configure their systems in a quick and efficient manner.

The add-on profile is a folder containing numerous files for the device. It
comes as an installation package.

1. In the file explorer, locate the directory where the installation files

were extracted.

2. Click MPSetup.exe.
3. Extract the zip file to a local directory on your computer.
