2)
Right click on the 1756-ENBT/A node under the I/O Configuration in the controller organizer view
and choose “New Module…”
3)
Choose “Generic Ethernet Module” in the Select Module dialog box and click “OK”. Refer to
Figure 86.

4)
The module properties dialog box will open (refer to Figure 87). Enter a Name and Description
which will allow easy identification of the inverter on the network (the tags created in RSLogix 5000
will be derived from this Name). Because all inverter data is stored as 16-bit registers, change the
“Comm Format” selection to “Data-INT”. Enter the IP address of the targeted interface card.
Figure 87: Interface Card Module Properties
In the “Connection Parameters” portion of the dialog box, enter the following information:
Input:
The Input Assembly is the collection of monitor data that is produced by the interface card
and is received as an input to the PLC. Its structure is defined by the Produced Register
Configuration as described in section 5.8.4. The Input Assembly Instance must be set to 150
when connecting to the vendor-specific I/O assembly instances (or 70/71 when using the ODVA
AC/DC drive profile), and the size must be set to the number of 16-bit registers that we wish to
receive from the interface card. For the purposes of this example, we are assuming that the
produced configuration array is defined as shown in Figure 43, with two relevant registers (2063
and 2058). We therefore set the Input Size to 2.
