Solution overview

This application note describes how to configure an Anybus EtherNet/IP adapter module with a Rockwell
PLC using RSLogix 5000. Below you can find an overview of the system described in this document. Other
nodes may be attached to the network, but are not necessary.
The configuration is described in two steps.
1. At first the PLC and network configuration is explained.
2. Secondly the configuration of the IP-settings and the I/O data of the Anybus module are described.
Note: This document is valid for all Anybus Slave EtherNet/IP products, however sections marked with
italics describe the configuration of a specific product.
The contents describe step by step how a configuration is done. This document assumes the reader is familiar
with industrial communication, EtherNet/IP networks and HMS Communicator and X-gateway.
