Configure the 1797-OE8H Module in RSLogix
5000 Software Over the ControlNet Network
What This Appendix
Contains This appendix provides the information needed to configure the 1797-OE8H
analog output module in RSLogix 5000 software over the ControlNet network
using version 13 or earlier and the generic profile.
Background Information Make sure that your Comm-Format is set to Data - INT. In the FLEX generic
profile, you need these sizes:
• Input - 0
• Output - 9
• Config - 11
• Status - 4
Adapter Name is what you named the ControlNet adapter when it was
originally created.
Slot is the position of the FLEX module in the rack, starting with zero.
IMPORTANT
HART commands will only work when the Data
Format control is configured for a 4 to 20 mA range.
The default configuration when using the generic
profile is 0, which configures the module for a 0 to
20 mA range.
