Installing and Configuring the Module
Fill in the dialog boxes as shown adjusting the Name, Description and Slot
options for your application. You must select the Comm Format as Data - INT in
the dialog box. Failure to set the Assembly Instance and Size values correctly
will result in a module that will not communicate over the backplane of the
ControlLogix rack. Click Next to display the following dialog box.
Select the Request Packet Interval value for scanning the I/O on the module.
This value represents the minimum frequency the module will handle scheduled
events. This value should not be set to less than 1 millisecond. Values between 1
and 10 milliseconds should work with most applications.
After completing the module setup, the Controller Organization window displays
the module's presence. The data required for the module is then defined to the
application, and objects are allocated in the Controller Tags data area. An
example of the Controller Organization window is shown in the following
