Adding a Bridge or Scanner to the I/O

To establish communications over an EtherNet/IP network, you
must first add the controller and its scanner or bridge to the I/O
configuration. This example uses RSLogix software to do this.

Step 1.

Start RSLogix 5000. The RSLogix 5000 window appears
as shown in figure 5.2.

Step 2.

In the Control Organizer pane, right-click the I/O
Configuration
folder and select New Module (figure 5.2).
The Select Module Type dialog box (figure 5.3) appears.
