Configuring a CompactLogix to Communicate via ETHERNET/IP™
This section is meant as a quick start for adding your gateway to a Com-
pactLogix system. The process is applicable for all Rockwell PLCs that
support I/O messaging to ETHERNET/IP™ Adapter devices.
This document assumes a certain level of knowledge of the Rockwell
Automation environment and starts from a properly configured base
project for your PLC. It also assumes you have a valid connection to the
PLC (via RSLinx) to download the program.
This document also assumes the EDS file
was properly imported into RSLogix5000
using the EDS Hardware Installation Tool
from Rockwell Automation.
1. Browse to the I/O Configuration tree
for your Ethernet network within
RSLogix5000.
2. Right click on the “Ethernet” network
and select “ New Module… ”.
3. Type “
