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 8 ). 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.
