CGCM Unit Configuration
Once you have added the module, you must schedule the connection to the
CGCM unit with RSNetWorx for ControlNet software.
Electronic Keying
Although the CGCM unit does not physically reside in a ControlLogix chassis,
electronic keying provides protection against module mismatch.
You must choose one of these keying options for the CGCM unit during module
configuration:
• Exact match - all of the parameters described below must match or the
inserted module rejects a connection to the controller
• Compatible module - a unit with host firmware major revision 3 functions
as a unit with host firmware major revision 2 if so configured when the
new module is created
• Disable keying - the inserted module does not reject a connection to the
controller
An I/O module that is connected in a ControlLogix system compares the
following information for itself to that of the original configuration:
• Vendor
• Product type
• Catalog number
• Major revision
This feature can prevent the inadvertent operation of a control system if a
CGCM unit is replaced with an incompatible unit.
Device Setup
You must configure the CGCM unit for the unit to function. Configuration tabs
in the module set-up screen divide the required information into sub-categories.
Evaluate the system and generator information to determine the appropriate
configuration settings and use the configuration tabs to enter the settings.
ATTENTION:
Be extremely cautious when using the disable keying
option; if used incorrectly, this option can lead to personal injury or death,
property damage or economic loss.
