Configuring Analog Output
Module

Configuring CompactBlock LDX modules is as easy as POINT and
click. RSNetWorx allows you to simply identify the network and
configure the I/O modules with easy-to-use Electronic Data Sheets
(EDS). Just POINT to the field and click on your selection.

To obtain EDS files for use in configuration, go to:

http://www.ab.com/networks/eds.

EDS files for blocks with matching catalog numbers (for D-Shell and
terminal block versions) are the same. Thus on the website or in
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, there may be only one catalog number
listed for both versions.

When using 3rd-party configuration software, simply load the EDS
files into the software and follow the vendor’s instructions.

Using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet

To configure analog input modules, follow these steps:

1. Open RSNetWorx for DeviceNet.

2. Add an analog output module (e.g. 1790D-N0C2) to the

network, as shown below..

If your network is running, you can also click on the Browse
button to see what modules are on the network.
