Electronic Keying

Select one of these keying options for your module during initial module
configuration:

Exact Match - all of the parameters described below must match or the

inserted module will reject the connection.

Compatible Modules – The following criteria must be met, or else the

inserted module will reject the connection:

The Module Types, Catalog Number, and Major Revision must

match.

The Minor Revision of the physical module must be equal to or

greater than the one specified in the software.

Disable Keying – Controller does not employ keying at all.

When you insert a module into a slot in a ControlLogix chassis, RSLogix 5000
compares the following information for the inserted module to that of the
configured slot:

• Vendor
• Product Type
• Catalog Number
• Major Revision
• Minor Revision

This feature prevents the inadvertent insertion of the wrong module in the
wrong slot.

ATTENTION

!

Changing the Electronic Keying selections may cause the
connection to the module to be broken and may result in a
loss of data.

Be extremely cautious when using this option; if used
incorrectly, this option can lead to personal injury or death,
property damage or economic loss.
