NOTICE!
For the transmission of cyclic process data between the device and the EtherNet/IP PLC, a
limited number of data words is available for each direction of transmission:
Input data (= modules 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14): 248 words
Output data (= modules 2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, 15): 248 words
If the EtherNet/IP modules have been parameterised in such a way that the cyclic input and
output data comprise more than 248 words per direction of transmission, any data from the
249th word will not be transmitted and will therefore be lost.
>
Risk of data loss.
► Parameterise the EtherNet/IP modules in a way to ensure that the input and output data
do not exceed the maximum number of words to be transmitted.
Set the communication path to the device (→ operating instructions RSLogix 2).
►
Transfer the project to the EtherNet/IP controller and start it.
