Description
serial
Programming terminal to controller module in logical
rack.
Use DF1
Upload logic from local controller (controller is directly
connected to the programming terminal).
Configure DF1 driver.
Leave connection path blank.
Programming terminal to controller module in remote
rack.
Use DF1 (connected to controller in local rack)
Use ControlNet to bridge to remote chassis.
Configure the DF1 driver.
Enter connection path: 1,0,2,42,1,9
1 = backplane port of the ControlLogix controller in slot 6 of the local chassis
0 = slot number of the 1756-CNB module in the local chassis
2 = ControlNet port of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the local chassis
42 = ControlNet node of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the remote chassis
1 = backplane port of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the remote chassis
9 = slot number of the controller in the remote chassis
ControlNet
Programming terminal to controller module in remote
chassis.
Use ControlNet throughout the system.
Configure the ControlNet driver.
Enter connection path: 2, 49, 1, 0, 2, 42, 1, 9
2 = ControlNet port of the KTC communication card in the workstation
49 = ControlNet node of the 1756-CNB module in slot 7 of the local chassis
1 = backplane port of the 1756-CNB module in slot 7 of the local chassis
0 = slot number of the 1756-CNB module in the local chassis
2 = ControlNet port of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the local chassis
42 = ControlNet node of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the remote chassis
1 = backplane port of the 1756-CNB module in slot 0 of the remote chassis
9 = slot number of the controller in the remote chassis
Ethernet
Programming terminal to controller module in remote
rack.
IMPORTANT: Connection path excludes path segment
from Ethernet card in programming terminal to Ethernet
module in local chassis because Ethernet driver is
configured for the Ethernet module in the local chassis.
Bridge across Ethernet
Configure the Ethernet driver.
Enter connection path: 1, 1, 2, 127.127.127.12, 1, 9
1 = backplane port of the 1756-ENET module in slot 8 of the local chassis
1 = slot number of the other 1756-ENET module in the local chassis
2 = Ethernet port of the 1756-ENET module in slot 1 of the local chassis
127.127.127.12 = IP address of the 1756-ENET module in the remote chassis
1 = backplane port of the 1756-ENET module in slot 1 of the remote chassis
9 = slot number of the controller in the remote chassis
