1762-IT4 Configuration File
The configuration file contains information you use to define the way
a specific channel functions. The configuration file is explained in
more detail in Configuring Channels on page 3-4.
The configuration file is modified using the programming software
configuration screen. For an example of module configuration using
RSLogix 500, see Configuration Using RSLogix 500 Version 5.50 or
Higher on page E-2.
Configuration Using
RSLogix 500 Version 5.50 or
Higher This example takes you through configuring your 1762-IT4
thermocouple/mV input module with RSLogix 500 programming
software, assumes your module is installed as expansion I/O in a
MicroLogix 1200 system, and that RSLinx™ is properly configured and
a communications link has been established between the MicroLogix
processor and RSLogix 500.
