Establishing an Ethernet
Connection
The Ethernet interface module supports 64 simultaneous connections
per module. A connection is a unique path to an end device, such as a
ControlNet PLC-5 processor on a ControlNet link attached via a
1756-CNB module. Each unique path uses a different connection.
There is an exception for a PLC-5 processor on a DH+ link attached
via a 1756-DHRIO module. Each 1756-DHRIO module uses only
one connection, regardless of how many devices are attached to it and
how many paths you define to those devices.
Multiple MSG instructions can use the same path to a device, but only
one connection is used because the path is the same.
Fault Code
Description
91
Sidecar module undefined message type.
92
Sidecar module requesting undefined pool.
93
Sidecar module illegal maximum pool size.
94
Sidecar module illegal ASCII message
95
Sidecar module reported fault, which may be the result of a bad
program that corrupts memory or of a hardware failure.
96
Sidecar module not physically connected to the PLC-5
processor.
