Rockwell Automation 1747-SN Remote I/O Scanner - Manual (Page 121)

Publication 1747-UM013B-EN-P - January 2005
M0 - M1 Files and G Files B-9
G Files Some specialty I/O modules use G (confiGuration) files (indicated in
the specific specialty I/O module user’s manual). These files can be
thought of as the software equivalent of DIP switches.
The content of G files is accessed and edited offline under the I/O
Configuration function. You cannot access G files under the Monitor
File function. Data you enter into the G file is passed on to the
specialty I/O module when you download the processor file and enter
the REM Run or any one of the REM Test modes.
Configuring G Files using RSLogix 500
1. Access the I/O configuration menu in RSLogix.

TIP
The G File configuration of the 1747-SN module is
streamlined in RSLogix. You do not have to configure
the file at the bit level. RSLogix provides a window
menu that provides the configuration options.
