To effectively use your adapter, note the following considerations. Understand Messaging Class 3 (Explicit Message) requests through the 1734-ACNR adapter to a specific POINT I/O module may not always receive a response from the I/O module. In the case where the I/O module does not reply to the request, the adapter responds with an error code indicating a time-out.

Install the ControlNet Adapter You must use Series C Point I/O modules with the ATTENTION 1734-ACNR. Series A and B Point I/O modules will not work with the 1734-ACNR. To install the adapter on the DIN rail prior to installing other base units, proceed as follows.
Install a Replacement ControlNet Adapter to an Existing System You must use Series C Point I/O modules with the ATTENTION 1734-ACNR. Series A and B Point I/O modules will not work with the 1734-ACNR. When you insert or remove the module while WARNING backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur.

Wire the ControlNet Adapter If you connect or disconnect the communications WARNING cable with power applied to this module or any device on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. If you connect or disconnect wiring while the WARNING field-side power is on, an electrical arc can occur.
