Q
Module Configuration/Network Installation
Configuration of the LBIM consists of defining NV types and mapping them into the PLC
reference space using the LBIM configuration software. When the module’s network interface has
been configured, network configuration and binding can be performed as for any other
L
ON
W
ORKS
node. Also, the Series 90-30 backplane CPU must be set up to recognize the module
as a foreign smart module with the reference map necessary to implement the network interface
(see “PLC Configuration”).

.
Determine which NV types will be needed to interface with the PLC.
Note
You must classify the variable direction from the LBIM to the L
ON
W
ORKS
network. If a NV is an output of a node, it will be an input to the LBIM.
