The Module Info A tab appears.
The Module A Info Tab displays module and status information about the
primary adapter, in slot 0 or 1. (During initial setup, the primary adapter is
installed in slot 0. If an IP address swap occurs, the primary adapter is now in
slot 1.)
This tab also lets you reset a module to its power-up state. The information on

Description
Requested Packet Interval
The Requested Packet Interval (RPI) specifies the rate at which the module and the
ControlLogix controller exchange data to and from each other. The allowable range of the
RPI is from 60…750
ms, with a default of 60 ms. When the specified time frame elapses, the
module and the ControlLogix controller produce data for each other.
Inhibit Module
Check or clear this box to inhibit or uninhibit your connection to the module. Inhibiting the
module causes the connection to the module to be closed.
When you check this box and go online, the icon representing this module in the controller
organizer displays the Inhibited icon.
Major Fault On Controller If Connection Fails While in Run Mode
Check this box to configure the controller so that failure of the connection to this module
causes a major fault on the controller if the connection for the module fails.
Use Unicast Connection over EtherNet/IP
Choose between Unicast and Multicast for EtherNet/IP connections.
Use only Multicast in redundancy applications or else the connection drops upon
switchover. Make sure that the box is unchecked.
