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 4.19 ). In our example,
we will configure a MicroLogix 1100 controller to communicate with a
drive using Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and Datalinks
over the network.

Configuring Parameters for Network I/O
Because the I/O for the drive is message-based, there is no need to configure
any I/O inside the RSLogix 500 project, version 7.00 or later, until using the
I/O as described in
Chapter 5 .
However, to get the adapter to operate with the I/O created in Chapter 5 , we
need to configure the adapter to accept the I/O and drive to point to the
appropriate Datalinks.
1. Set adapter Parameters 23 - [DPI I/O Cfg], 35 - [M-S Input], and 36 -
[M-S Output] to values that meet your application requirements.
For this example, the adapter I/O parameters are set to these values.
2. Reset the adapter (see Resetting the Adapter on page 3-16 ) or power
cycle the drive.
For the drive speed reference and Datalink parameter values and the
adapter setup parameter values, refer to
Drive and Adapter Parameter
Settings on page 5-21 .
