Configure the Controller Application Chapter 1

Add Modules to Local Chassis

In this section, you are adding all the necessary modules to your local chassis, including network adapters and I/O modules,
to the I/O tree of a Logix controller.

1. In the Controller Organizer, right-click the backplane and choose New Module.

2. In the Search field, type a catalog number of a module that you are adding.

The example shows a 1756-EN2T network adapter being selected.

3. Select a module and click Create.

TIP

To make it easier to locate a particular module, use the filters to view only the module types you need.

The Module Discovery tab takes you through the I/O tree of the Logix controller to determine which modules you need to
configure or modify. The tab is active if the controller is online and the network path is valid.
