6.
Configure the system.
Reference
Configure your system I/O for the particular slot the 1746ĆNI8 is in (slot 1 in this example). Enter the
module ID code. The ID code is 3526 for Class 1 interface, and 12726 for Class 3 interface. See
chapter 4 for more information on Class 1 and Class 3 interfaces.
Important: All programming software does not support configuration for Class 3 operation.
•
Advanced Programming Software (APS) supports Class 3 configuration. After entering the ID
code (12726), enter 16 input words and 12 output words.
•
SLC 500 A.I. Seriest Programming Software supports Class 3 configuration. After entering the
ID code (12726), enter 16 input words and 12 output words.
•
RSLogix 500t, version 1.30 or later, supports Class 3 configuration. After entering the ID code
(12726), select Class 3 operation.
•
Earlier versions of RSLogix 500 will only support configuration for Class 1 operation. Contact
Rockwell Software for information on upgrading your software.
If you are converting from a 1746ĆNI4 to a 1746ĆNI8 based system, see Appendix C.
