Installing the ControlNet
RS-232 Interface Module
To communicate with the SLC 500 processor via a ControlNet network
you must install a 1747-KFC15 ControlNet RS-232 Interface module in
the 1746 I/O chassis close to the processor.
Configuring the 1747-KFC15 Module’s RS-232 Port
The RS-232 serial port on the 1747-KFC15 module is configured using
three banks (S1, S2, and S3) of DIP switches mounted on the module’s
printed circuit board.
For the example application, we used the following configuration to
match the configuration of the SLC 500 processor’s RS-232 port
described in the previous section:
IMPORTANT
The communication parameters of 1747-KFC15
module must match those of the SLC 500 processor.
