This manual is intended to guide you through the setup and configuration of your
ProLinx 5604-RIO-PDPMV1 device.
Important:
This Setup Guide shows you how to set up a simple RIO to PDPMV1 network between
a PLC5 processor and a ProLinx 5604-RIO-PDPMV1 module. This guide should be used as a
starting point only.
In all likelihood, the requirements of your particular application will involve additional configuration
and development. For detailed information on the Rockwell Automation® Remote I/O and
PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master protocols, please refer to the following Driver Manuals, on your ProSoft
Solutions CD-ROM:
RIO Driver Manual
PDPMV1 Driver Manual
For general information on installing and configuring ProLinx modules, please refer to the ProLinx
Reference Guide, also on your ProSoft Solutions CD-ROM.
1.1 Before
You
Begin
Setting up the RIO to PDPMV1 network is relatively simple
using the sample files included on the ProLinx Solutions CD.
The flow diagram illustrates the high-level steps used to
configure each module.
You can use the sample files to get started or you can create
the configuration files from scratch. The easiest way to begin
is to use the sample configurations. Once you understand
how they are created, setting up your network is easy.
