14 CompactLogix ControlNet Interface Module
Publication 1768-IN006A-EN-P - September 2007
Connect the Module
You can connect the module to the ControlNet network by using a tap
(catalog number 1786-TPR, 1786-TPS, 1786-TPYR, or 1786-TPYS) or a
network access cable (catalog number 1786-CP).
Refer to the ControlNet Coax Media Planning and Installation Guide,
publication CNET-IN002, for additional information.
WARNING
If you connect or disconnect the communication cable with power
applied to this module or any device on the network, an electrical arc
can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before
proceeding.
TIP
Use the 1786-CP cable for temporary connections, such as
programming software. For network connections and permanent
connections, we recommend taps with a straight connector
(catalog number 1786-TPS or 1786-TPYS) because of the location of
the BNC connectors on the bottom of the module.
