How to Configure the
Adapter for Grouped Mode

You can select the following modules in the configuration tool:

1. Module without configuration data (e.g. 1734-OB2E/no config)

2. Module with configuration data (e.g. 1734-OB2E/with config)

3. Empty slot module (e.g. 1734-OB2E/empty slot)

4. Grouped module (e.g. 1734-OB2E/grouped)

5. Grouped empty slot module (e.g. 1734-OB2E/grouped empty

slot)

By combining these modules, groups can be created in 3 different
ways:

1. A group of modules with configuration data

2. A group of modules without configuration data (default

configuration will be used for all modules in the group)

3. A group of empty slot modules

The following example illustrates how to group modules in a single
byte.

1. Select the 1734-OB2E (hardware type 1) from the hardware catalog.

The adapter will open a byte and store the first 1734-OB2E module there.

2. Select the 1734-OB2E (hardware type 4 - grouped) from the hardware catalog.

The adapter will store the second 1734-OB2E in the opened byte.

3. Select the 1734-OB2E (hardware type 4 - grouped) from the hardware catalog.

The adapter will store the third 1734-OB2E in the opened byte.

4. Select the 1734-OB2E (hardware type 4 - grouped) from the hardware catalog.

The adapter will store the fourth 1734-OB2E in the opened byte.

If more modules are to be grouped, a new byte has to be opened (repeat steps 1 through 4).
