Set the Baud Rate

After setting the operating mode for the 1756-RIO module, you must set the
baud rate.

1. On the 56RioCfgScan dialog box, right-click on the controller on the I/

O tree and from the pull-down menu, select 1756-RIO Properties.

The 1756-RIO Properties dialog box displays.

2. Select the baud rate.

3. You can also optionally enter an LED Banner name.

This is a unique name you assign to identify the module. This is useful
when you have multiple RIO modules on your network. The LED
Banner displays on the 4-character display on the 1756-RIO module. It
can be from 0…15 characters long.

4. Click OK.

You must perform a download to reconfigure the module.

TIP

If you perform an autoconfiguration, the 1756-RIO module
automatically detects the baud rate by sending packets to an
attached remote I/O network.
