Installing the add-on profile
Introduction
This appendix shows how to install the add-on profile (AOP) of the encoder
with the RSLogix 5000 program. Add-on profiles are files that users add to their
Rockwell Automation library. These files contain the pertinent information for
configuring a device that will be added to the Rockwell Automation network.
The add-on profile simplifies the setup of devices because it presents the
necessary fields in an organized fashion, which allows users to set up and
configure their systems in a quick and efficient manner.
The add-on profile is a folder containing numerous files for the device. It will
come as an installation package.
