To configure RSLinx software to use a USB port, you need to set up a USB driver. To set up a
USB driver, follow these steps. If you are using Windows 7 operating system, the driver is
automatically installed and you can proceed to step 5.

1. Connect your controller and workstation by using a USB cable.
2. On the Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box, click one of the Windows Update

connection options and click Next.

3. Click Install the software automatically (Recommended) and click Next.
4. Click Finish.

5. To browse to your controller in RSLinx software, click RSWho

.

In the RSLinx Workstation organizer, your controller appears under two different drivers, a
virtual chassis and the USB port. You can use either driver to browse to your controller.

Make Network Connections

1. Remove the dust caps from the 4 Ethernet connectors on the bottom of the enclosure.

2. Connect the cordsets you selected to the Ethernet communication ports on the bottom

of the enclosure and torque to 1 N•m (9 lb-in).

TIP

If the software for the USB driver is not found and the installation is canceled, verify that you
have installed RSLinx Classic software, version 2.59 or later.

IMPORTANT

If you disconnect network connections from these ports, re-attach the dust caps and
torque to 0.75 N•m (6.63 lb-in) to maintain IP67 protection.
