The AADvance Workbench inserts a network into the Hardware Architecture
view.

4) Create a connection between a configuration and the newly inserted CIP network.

Note: You can only connect Series 9000 and Series 8000 configurations to a CIP

network. If you try to connect a CIP network to a configuration that does not

support CIP (for example, a T6210 system) then the AADvance Workbench
displays a warning, and the connection will not be made.

5) Select the CIP connection link then select the properties

The Connection – Properties dialog opens.

6) Enter the IP Address in the allocated to the AADvance controller for the CIP

network in the Value field for IPAddress1, click OK.

Note: The default IP Address for a connection between a configuration and a
CIP Network is blank. If you do not specify a valid IP Address here, the

AADvance Workbench will report an error at build time, ‘Network CIP: invalid
connection properties for … (the particular configuration).’

7) The CIP communications network on the AADvance controller is now defined.

Note: The AADvance Controller will support a maximum of 255 connections.

8) Now set up the RSLogix controller.
