Control I/O Chapter 4
Add a Remote Adapter
The type of distributed I/O determines your choice of a remote ControlNet
adapter. Before choosing a remote adapter, you must add local and remote
ControlNet modules to an RSLogix 5000 project. For more information on
adding ControlNet modules to a project, see Add and Configure a Local
ControlNet Module on page 30 and Add and Configure a Remote ControlNet
Module on page 33 .

Add Distributed I/O
To communicate with I/O modules in your system, you add a bridge, adapter, and
I/O modules to the I/O Configuration folder of the controller. Within the
folder, you organize modules into a hierarchy of tree/branch and parent/child.
