Figure 11 - Standard DeviceNet Communication Example
Serial Communication To operate the Compact GuardLogix controller on a serial network, you need the
following:
• A workstation with a serial port
• RSLinx software to configure the serial communication driver
• RSLogix 5000 software to configure the serial port of the controller
For the controller to communicate to a workstation or other device over the serial
network, you must follow these steps.
1. Configure the serial communication driver for the workstation.
2. Configure the serial port of the controller.
