Configure ControlLogix Isolated Analog I/O Modules

Copy Channel Configuration

The Copy Channel Configuration feature lets you quickly and easily use the same
configuration across multiple channels on a module. You can configure channel
parameters on Module Properties dialog box and copy them to other channels.

Copy Channel Configuration is available on the Module Properties dialog box
tabs as follows for the ControlLogix isolated analog I/O modules:

1756-IF8I and 1756-IRT8I modules:

Configuration tab

Alarm Configuration tab

1756-OF8I module:

Configuration tab

Limit Configuration tab

The Copy Channel Configuration feature copies all channel configuration from
one channel to one or more other channels. For example, if you use the Copy
Channel Configuration feature on the Configuration tab for a 1756-IF8I
module, the configuration values on the Configuration tab and the Alarm
Configuration tab are copied to the selected channels.

Complete the following steps to copy channel configuration from one channel
to others.

1.

Verify that your controller is not in Run mode.

If so, change it to Remote Run, Remote Program, or Program mode, as
applicable to your system.

2.

Access the Module Properties dialog box.

3.

Click the Configuration tab and make the required configuration changes.

In this example, the channel 0 configuration for a 1756-IF8I module is
copied to all other channels on the module.
