3. Fill in the power monitor IP address, and the values shown in the figure
below for the input, output, and configuration instances.

The Input instance contains a variety of data types. You need to create controller
tags and write controller logic to copy the Input instance data into a usable form.
DeviceNet I/O Connection
The DeviceNet Class 1 connection sets up implicit communication between the
DeviceNet scanner and the PowerMonitor 5000 unit. This connection makes it
possible to read power monitor parameters into a Logix controller and to control
the power monitor discrete outputs. The DeviceNet network connection does
not include the configuration instance of the PowerMonitor 5000 unit. You can
use a web browser for setting up the power monitor, except that when a
DeviceNet network connection is active, the web browser is not permitted to
change the Configuration.OptionalComm.DNT setup values or execute output
forcing commands.
It is not necessary to establish an I/O connection to allow explicit messaging with
a DeviceNet PowerMonitor 5000 unit that is connected on a DeviceNet
network.
