Click on the Connection tab to display the following:
The Request Packet Interval (RPI) indicates the maximum frequency at which
data will be received. It is possible that data could come more quickly than the
time interval assigned in the RPI. In the majority of cases, the default 20 ms
should be the optimal setting. If you check the Inhibit Module option,
connection to controller tags will be broken. The Major Fault on Controller if
Connection Fails While in Run Mode
option should be checked to ensure that
the controller processes the connection fault with the ArmorStart. The Use
Unicast Connection over EtherNet/IP
is checked to use the Unicast mode
instead of the EtherNet/IP mode. This appears only for modules using
RSLogix 5000 software version 18 or later which supports Unicast.
