Manual Configuration
It is reccomended that you start with an autoconfig, even if it’s just part of your I/O in a lab, or a
network you have access to.
If that’s not possible, it is reccomended that you start with the Sample Configuration.
Retrieve the sample configuration by selecting
Automation Network/Configuration Sample.
This
shows sample I/O and Ethernet I/P configuration files.
Edit the configuration files using a text editor. The file format is described on page 25.
To send the files configuration to AN-X:
1.
From the AN-X web interface, select
Automation Network/Configuration
.
2.
Browse to either the I/O config file or the Ethernet/IP config file.
3.
Click the
Send I/O Config to AN-X
or
Send Ethernet/IP Config to AN-X
button.
AN-X parses the files and displays the current configuration and configuration logs.
AN-X also reloads the ControlLogix configuration and regenerates tags when you download a
Genius bus configuration.
