Setting up the PLC- Example Using RSLogix5000
This is how you would set up the example on the previous page using RSLogix5000:
1)
Add a “Generic Ethernet Module” under the Ethernet adapter for your PLC.
2)
Change the IP address to match the gateway.
3)
The Coms Format: Select the format you wish to display in your PLC.
4)
The Connection Parameters: Keep in mind that the RTA sizes that are display on the EtherNet/IP
adapter web base configuration are in on the bytes (8 bits).
NOTE: The connection parameters table indicates how many bytes to use for the assembly instance. If
you are using a data format that is not type 8 Bit Int/Uint, this number needs to be adjusted accordingly
in the Connection Parameters section.
