Manage Configurations There are several ways to manage your module’s configurations. This section
covers:
• downloading configurations to the module.
• uploading configurations to the RSLogix 5000 project.
• saving and loading configurations to disk.
• archiving configurations.
Managing configuration steps are the same for scanner and adapter modes.
