4.1 Overview
The chapter General set-
up procedure (→ page
13 ) illustrates the general set-up procedure for the
controllerE devices AC1331 / AC1332 by means of 2 flowcharts. Possible error states and the
corresponding corrective measures are described in additional tables in this chapter.
The chapter Connect a Schneider Premium controller via CANopen
(→ page
17 ) show a configuration
example of a connection between a host PLC Allen Bradley ControlLogix and the controllerE. These
quick instructions presuppose the following:

16 bytes digital input and output data respectively are to be exchanged between the connected
host and the controllerE. Accordingly, the fieldbus modules 1 and 2 are both set to 16 bytes
(→ pages
30 and 31 ).

The node address and the baud rate of the controllerE have been set as defined in the example.

The configuration PC is connected to the host controller.

The controllerE and the CANopen scanner are switched on and connected to each other via
CANopen.
The following diagram is supposed to give an overview of the system structure and the corresponding
data flow:
