I/O Modules
Because of the increased performance that is provided by the 1756-CN2,
1756-CN2R, and 1756-CN2RXT modules, many of the considerations that
must be made with the 1756-CNB and 1756-CNBR modules are not applicable.
With the 1756-CN2, 1756-CN2R, and 1756-CN2RXT modules, you can add
I/O while online as long as you use reasonable RPI settings and remain within
the CPU limitations of the ControlNet module.
When adding to the I/O Configuration with 1756-CN2, 1756-CN2R, and
1756-CN2RXT modules, make these considerations:
•
Digital I/O modules can be added as rack-optimized connections if the
parent module is configured with rack-optimized connections.
•
Digital I/O modules can also be added as direct connections.
•
Analog I/O modules can be added only as direct connections.
•
Disable the Change of State (COS) feature on digital input modules
because it can cause inputs to be sent more quickly than the RPI.
•
If you plan to add large amounts of I/O to the ControlNet network,
dedicate one ControlNet network for I/O. For the dedicated ControlNet
network, verify that there is little or none of the following:
–
HMI traffic
–
MSG traffic
–
Programming workstations

TIP
While you can add a new digital I/O module to an existing rack-
optimized connection, you cannot add rack-optimized connections
while online.
