Link Module Configuration with RSLogix 5000
Project

Introduction

Now that the configuration, mode selection, and network preparation in the
configuration tool are complete, the next steps include downloading the
configuration to the 1756-RIO module and exporting aliases to the RSLogix
5000 project. This completes the preparation of the 1756-RIO module for
operation on a Remote I/O network.

In this chapter, you will:

create aliases and export them to the RSLogix 5000 project.
convert an older system to a ControlLogix system.
download configurations to the module.
upload configurations to the project.
save configurations to disk.
archive configuration templates.
