manual configuration. You build a configuration file and send it to the
AN-X2-GENI.
You can also use autoconfiguration to build an initial configuration file, edit the file to
add features, then perform a manual configuration with the modified file.
Autoconfiguration
Before you can perform an autoconfiguration, the Genius network must be connected to
the AN-X.
From the AN-X web interface, select
Automation Network/Genius Network
Configuration
.
AN-X can generate a default ControlLogix data mapping configuration based on the I/O
it finds (see page 21). If you want to have it generate the ControlLogix configuration,
check
Auto-configure Genius network and ControlLogix configuration
. Otherwise, check
Auto-configure Genius network
(the default).
Click the
Auto-configure Network
button.
AN-X sends messages to all possible Genius bus addresses and builds a configuration
based on the replies it receives. AN-X then displays the configuration it generated.
See page 20 for information on how to upload the configuration from AN-X and save it
to a file.
