RSLOGIX 5000 CONFIGURATION
The PLX51-DF1-ENI modules can be easily integrated with Allen-Bradley Logix family of
controllers.
For Logix versions 20 and beyond, the modules can be added using the EDS Add-On-Profile
(AOP), which is described in section 3.7.1.
For older versions (19 and below), the module must be added using a Generic Profile which is
described in section 3.7.2.

The Logix family in Studio5000 uses the EDS AOP. Before the module can be added to the
tree, the module’s EDS file must be registered.
Using RSLinx, the EDS file can be uploaded from the device. The EDS Hardware Installation
tool is then invoked to complete the registration.
Alternatively, the EDS file can be downloaded from the product web page at
. It can then be registered manually using the EDS Hardware Installation Tool
shortcut, under the Tools menu in Studio 5000.
