ControlLogix Controller
Example
After the adapter is configured, the connected drive and adapter will be a
single node on the network. This section provides the steps needed to
configure a simple EtherNet/IP network (see
Figure 4.1 ). In our example, we
will configure a ControlLogix controller with 1756-ENBT (Series A) bridge
to communicate with a drive using Logic Command/Status, Reference/
Feedback, and 16 Datalinks (8 to read and 8 to write) over the network.
