Chapter 5 provides instructions on how to configure a ControlLogix
bridge to communicate with the module and connected drive.
5.1
Configuring a Simple Network: An
Example
After the module is configured, the connected drive and module will
be a single node on the network. This chapter provides the steps
that are needed to configure a simple network like the network in
figure 5.1.
In our example, we will configure a 1756-ENBT (series A) bridge to
communicate with a drive using Logic Command/Status, Reference/
Feedback, and four 16-bit datalinks over the network.
