Configure the 1756-HSC Module
Introduction
This chapter describes how to configure the 1756-HSC/B module, firmware
revision 3.x, by using RSLogix 5000 programming software, version 18 and
later. Your 1756-HSC module will not work until it has been configured.
See Appendix C for profiles of the 1756-HSC/A. The instructions include
firmware revisions 1.x and 2.x and RSLogix 5000 software
versions 15…18.
ControlLogix Overview
Before configuring your 1756-HSC module in a local or remote chassis, you
must have an understanding of how the module operates with the controller in
the ControlLogix system. Every 1756-HSC module must be owned by a
Logix5000 controller. This owner-controller stores configuration data for
every 1756-HSC module that it owns.
The owner-controller sends configuration information to the modules it owns
anytime the module has not been configured; generally this occurs on a
module powerup or a controller-initiated reconfigure. Adding the
1756-HSC module to the I/O configuration tree of the RSLogix 5000
programming software creates configuration and I/O data structures and tags
for the 1756-HSC module.
IMPORTANT
RSLogix 5000 programming software must be installed on your
computer to complete the procedures for both default and
custom configurations.
For software installation instructions and to learn how to
navigate the software package, see the RSLogix 5000 Getting
Results Guide, publication
9399-RLD300GR .
