Routing Limitations

The 1756-DH485 module can route a message through up to four
communications networks and three chassis. This limit applies only to the
routing of a message and not to the total number of networks or chassis in a
system.

DH-485 and CIP Messaging

The 1756-DH485 module lets devices, such as ControlLogix, PLC, and SLC
controllers exchange information. With the 1756-DH485 module, you may
exchange information between the ControlLogix, PLC, or SLC controllers on
different networks. Communication between SLC controllers on different
networks is accomplished using remote messaging.
