To assign a communication driver to a port:

After configuring a driver, you must map the driver to one of driver
ports.

1. From the Communications menu, choose Configure Client

Applications.

Maps the configured
DF1 driver to 1KT:0.

2. On the Port Mapping tab, assign the communication driver to one

of the logical ports (1KT:0, 2KT:0, ... , 8KT:0).

You can assign the driver to any one of the port mappings and it
will still operate on COM1 (port configured in Device dialog).

If you map the same driver to more than one logical port (1KT:0,
... , 8KT:0) these ports are viewable in the PanelBuilder
Download/Upload dialog when clicking the Setup button.

Important:

If you do not configure the Client Application,
RSLinx drivers will not be accessible from the
Download/Upload dialogs in PanelBuilder.
