Chapter 2 Manage event tasks

Make sure your module can trigger an event task

To use an input module to trigger an event task, the module must support event

task triggering. If the module is in a remote location, the associated

communication modules must also support event triggering.

The following table lists Rockwell Automation modules that have been tested for

event task triggering. Some third-party modules may also support event task

triggering. Before you use a third-party module, check with the supplier to validate

the operation of the module.

Checklist for an Input Event Task

Use the following checklist when creating an Input Event Task.

For This

Make Sure You

1. Input module type

For the fastest response, use these modules:

For fastest digital response, use a 1756-IB32/B module.

For fastest analog response, use a 1756-IF4FXOF2F module.

2. I/O module location

Place the module that triggers the event and the modules that respond to the event (outputs) in the same chassis as the controller.
Remote modules add network communication to the response time.

3. Number of local modules

Limit the number of modules in the local chassis.
Additional modules increase the potential for backplane delays.
