Configuring RSLogix 5000 For The IF8H
and OF8H
This chapter explains how to incorporate your module into the
ControlLogix system. It also covers a brief overview of the configuration,
input and output (OF8H only) tags Topics discussed include:
• Adding your module to a RSLogix 5000 project
• Configuration tags overview
• Input tags overview
• Output tags overview
Module Installation The process of incorporating your HART module into the ControlLogix
system is similar to the process needed to add an Allen-Bradley module.
You will use your RSLogix 5000 programming software to install and
configure your HART module. The module is not currently in the
RSLogix 5000 I/O pick list, so you will need to copy and paste information
from a sample project that can be obtained from our website at
(www.spectrumcontrols.com). You may also choose to build onto the
sample project itself. The sample project contains the module profile,
configuration tags, input tags, and ladder samples needed to configure
each HART module.
Adding Your Module
to a Project
The module has a unique set of tag definitions which are used to configure
specific features. Chapter 5 and 6, Channel Configuration, Data, and
Status, gives you detailed information about available configuration settings
and status information. These values are set using your programming
