Configuring the 1770-HT1 Module

To configure a 1770-HT1 module and create cyclic messages to HART
devices, complete the following steps.

1. If you have not already done so, autoconfigure the RIO

network.

2. Add the 1770-HT1 module to the appropriate rack. The

1770-HT1 module must be the only module in that rack.

At this point, the 1757-ABRIO module does not know how to
complete the rest of the HART configuration until it has the
configuration with the 1770-HT1 module included. You must
download the configuration to the 1757-ABRIO module before
the HART configuration program can run.

Immediately after you add the 1770-HT1 module, AbRioCfg
software prompts you to download the configuration with the
1770-HT1 module to the 1757-ABRIO module.

3. Click OK to download.

After AbRioCfg software downloads the configuration, it starts
the separate HART configuration program. The main AbRioCfg
program is automatically minimized when the HART
configuration is running. When you close the HART
configuration program, the main configuration program is
automatically restored.
