Set the Requested Packet
Interval (RPI) When you configure an I/O module, you define the requested packet interval
(RPI) for the module. Only data-producing modules require an RPI. For
example, a local EtherNet/IP communication module requires no RPI because it
produces no data for the system. Instead it functions only as a bridge.
To set an RPI, follow these steps.
1. Make sure the module is installed, started and connected to the controller
via a serial, or other network, connection.
2. In the Controller Organizer, right-click the EtherNet/IP communication
module and choose Properties.
The Module Properties dialog box appears.
3. Click the Connection tab.
