Monitoring Fieldbus
Functions Through
Monitoring Tab Inactivating/Activating a Link
Use the following procedure to inactivate/activate a fieldbus Link
through the Monitoring tab in Control Builder.

!
Inactivating a fieldbus Link essentially shuts downs

and interrupts the transfer of data to the
ProcessLogix system. Be sure you system can tolerate
the lost of live data, while the link is inactive.
