The chapter
General setup
(

) illustrates the general set-up procedure for the controllerE units
AC1318 / AC1324 by means of 2 flowcharts. Possible error states and the corresponding corrective
measures are described in additional tables in this chapter.
The chapter
Connect Allen Bradley ControlLogix controller via DeviceNet
(
→
) shows a configuration
example of a connection between host controllers and the controllerE. These quick instructions
presuppose the following:
16 bytes of digital input and 16 bytes of digital output data are to be exchanged between the
connected host and the controllerE. Accordingly, the fieldbus modules 1 and 2 are both set to
16 bytes:

),
Chapter
Module 2 – digital output master 1(A)

).
The node address and the baud rate of the controllerE have been set as defined in the respective
examples.
The configuration PC is connected to the host controller.
The controllerE and the DeviceNet scanner are switched on and connected to each other via
DeviceNet.
