6. Enter the following module properties on the General tab:
a. Name
This step is optional. Enter the host name for the module.
b. IP address
This step is optional. This field will not set the IP address. It simply displays
the information. The IP address is located in the scrolling text across your
module’s LED.
c. Slot
Select the slot number that the module is installed in from the Slot drop-down
menu.
7. Click [OK] to save the definition for the new module.
8. Go to the I/O Configuration folder, select your controller, right-click to access the
Controller Properties dialog and ensure that your controller slot number and all
other controller properties are properly configured.
Note that under module Definition, [Change] launches a screen to configure Electronic
Keying and the Connection Type. The Connection Type is important because you can
select a module by which a Logix controller cannot control the output bits for the
module data or a listen-only mode for monitoring its status.
