6. Right-click on an <Empty Slot> in the Module Definition dialog box and

select the Guardmaster Safety Relay that is physically located in that slot
position next to the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface.

Note: Empty slots between Guardmaster Safety Relays are not supported
by the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface at run-time. Your
configuration must represent the actual Safety Relays present beginning
with the first slot and without any empty slots.

7. Once all Guardmaster Safety Relays monitored by the Guardmaster

EtherNet/IP network interface have been added, Click OK.

8. Click OK at the next window to have RSLogix 5000 create the predefined

tags. The Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network interface will now show as a
module in the I/O Configuration folder.

With both the Logix controller and the EtherNet/IP network configured, the
Logix controller can exchange data with the Guardmaster EtherNet/IP network
interface.

1. Open the Controller tags window.

2. Select the Monitor Tags tab.

In the previous example, predefined input tags were created for the GSR
DIS module in slot 1 of the configuration. For detailed information on the
