Enter Connection Information

From the Module Properties dialog box, click the Connection tab to display these
fields:

Requested Packet Interval (RPI)—Default value is 700 ms and supports

RPI from 50…750 ms. Because this is a multicasting device and does not
need a fast RPI to fulfill its purpose, we recommend a slow RPI to
minimize network impact. Available online and offline.

Inhibit Module—1783-EMS switch is not scanned by the Logix controller

when this is checked. Available online and offline.

Major Fault On Controller If Connection Fails While in Run Mode—

When checked, a communication failure with the 1783-EMS switch
generates a major fault in the Logix controller. When unchecked, a
communication failure generates a minor fault. Available online and
offline.
