2. Enter an appropriate name for the Controller, for example,
ArmorBlock_IO_Controller.
3. Select the correct version, chassis type, and slot number of the controller,
and the folder where you want to save the Studio 5000 Logix Designer

You must configure your module upon installation. The module will not work
until it has been configured with at least the default configuration.
You must use Studio 5000 Logix Designer, version 18 or later, to configure
your module. You have the option of accepting default configuration for your
module or writing point-level configuration specific to your application.
Both options are explained in detail, including views of software screens, in
this chapter.
When you use the Studio 5000 Logix Designer software to configure a module,
you must perform the following steps:
1. Add the Local EtherNet/IP Bridge (1756-EN2T, 1756-EN2TR, or 1756-
EN3TR) to your project's I/O Configuration.
2. Add the 1732E-IB8M8SOER or 1732E-OB8M8SR module as a child of the
1756-EN2T module.
3. Accept the default configuration or change it to specific configuration
for the module.
4. Edit configuration for a module when changes are needed.
After you have started Studio 5000 Logix Designer software and created a
controller, you must add a new bridge and a new module to your project. The
bridge allows your module to communicate with the controller.
The wizard allows you to create a new module and write configuration. You
can use default configuration or write specific configuration for your
application.
IMPORTANT Click Help on the configuration dialogs shown in this section if you need
assistance in selecting and setting the parameters.
