IMPORTANT
To enable pass-through access with a SLC 500
processor, you must use RSLogix 500 to configure
the M0 and M1 files associated with the 1747-SDN
module with a minimum length of 361 words. You
can access the M file configuration by launching I/O
Configuration within RSLogix 500, and then selecting
the 1747-SDN. See Appendix E for details.
The SLC 500 processor must be placed in Run mode
at least once since its last power cycle for 1747-SDN
pass-through transactions to succeed.
IMPORTANT
You must have previously set up the network you
will use to communicate with the DeviceNet network
and have installed and configured the appropriate
drivers and interface hardware.
