Quick Start for Experienced Users

This chapter helps you to get started using the RIO Scanner. We base
the procedures here on the assumption that you have a basic
understanding of SLC 500 products.

You must:

• understand electronic process control
• be able to interpret the ladder logic instructions for generating

the electronic signals that control your application

Because it is a start-up guide for experienced users, this chapter does
not
contain detailed explanations about the procedures listed. It does,
however, reference other chapters in this book where you can get
more detailed information. It also references other documentation that
may be helpful if you are unfamiliar with programming techniques or
system installation requirements.

If you have any questions, or are unfamiliar with the terms used or
concepts presented in the procedural steps, always read the
referenced chapters
and other recommended documentation before
trying to apply the information.

This chapter:

• tells you what tools and equipment you need
• lists preliminary considerations
• describes when to address, configure and program the module
• explains how to install and wire the module
• discusses system power-up procedures

Required Tools and
Equipment

Have the following tools and equipment ready:

• medium blade screwdriver
• programming equipment
• termination kit (package of resistors and ring lug included with

the scanner)

• approximately 15 inches of #20 AWG for grounding the drain

shield to the SLC chassis (for Series A retrofits)

• an adequate length of RIO communication cable (Belden 9463)

for your specific application
