Delete a Rack
To delete a rack, follow these steps.
1. On the 56RioCfgScan dialog box, right-click on the rack in the I/O tree
and choose Delete Rack(s).
2. To delete a partial rack, expand the rack in the I/O tree, right-click on
the partial rack and choose Delete Partial Rack.
Configure Block Transfer
Modules All block transfer modules represent some type of analog data. Block transfer
modules transfer a block (64 words maximum) of analog-type data at a rate
configured by the user. The 1756-RIO module lets the user offload block
transfer execution from the controller to the 1756-RIO module.
If a slot is occupied by a discrete I/O module, or is empty, select ‘Discrete’,
which is the default. If a specific block transfer module occupies the slot, select
the part number of that block transfer module.
Not all block transfer modules are supported directly by the 1756-RIO
module. If the module you are using does not appear in the list, set the module
type to BT-MODULE and set the lengths to the appropriate values. In some
cases, there are multiple templates for a given block transfer module to show
that the module can be used in significantly different ways.
See Appendix D for additional information on block transfer templates.
