Set the Baud Rate

To set the baud rate in adapter mode, follow these steps.

1. On the 56RioCfgAdpt 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. On the 1756-RIO Module Properties dialog box, select the baud rate.

3. You can also 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.

The default baud rate is Auto (automatic baud rate detection).

TIP

If you perform an autoconfiguration, the 1756-RIO module
automatically detects the baud rate by monitoring an attached
Remote I/O network.

TIP

If you are only using Active racks, set the baud rate to match
the Remote I/O network. Don’t set it to Auto.
