Block Transfers to Remote
FLEX I/O Modules through
a 1756-DHRIO or
1756-DHRIOXT Module in a
Local Chassis

This application enables a ControlLogix controller to initiate block transfers to
remote FLEX I/O modules through a 1756-DHRIO or 1756-DHRIOXT
module in the local chassis.

The following figure illustrates the steps you must use in this example.

Configure the Module Switches

Channel B on the 1756-DHRIO or 1756-DHRIOXT module must be set for
RIO. Channel A can be used for remote I/O or DH+, regardless of the usage
assigned to channel B.
