Connect to the
1756-L7
x
Controller
The controller has a USB port that uses a Type B receptacle. The port is USB 2.0
compatible and runs at 12 Mbps.
To use the USB port of the controller, you must have RSLinx software,
version 2.56 or later, installed on your workstation. Use a USB cable to connect
your workstation to the USB port. With this connection, you can upgrade
firmware and download programs to the controller directly from your
workstation.
TIP
When upgrading your 1756-L6
x
controller firmware, we recommend you use a
network connection other than the serial cable. Serial connections are much
slower than other communication connections.
ATTENTION:
The USB port is intended only for temporary local
programming purposes and not intended for permanent connection. The
USB cable is not to exceed 3.0 m (9.84 ft) and must not contain hubs.
WARNING:
Do not use the USB port in hazardous locations.
