1.6 Installing the Module with a CompactLogix Processor
If you are installing and configuring the module with a CompactLogix processor,
follow these steps. If you are using a MicroLogix processor, refer to the next
section.
Important: The MVI69-FLN module has a power supply distance rating of 2 (L43 and L45
installations on first 2 slots of 1769 bus)
This chapter describes how to install and configure the module to work with your
application. The configuration process consists of the following steps.
1 Use RSLogix to identify the module to the processor and add the module to a
project.
Note: The RSLogix software must be in "offline" mode to add the module to a project.
2 Modify the example ladder logic to meet the needs of your application, and
copy the ladder logic to the processor. Example ladder logic files are provided
on the CD-ROM.
Note: If you are installing this module in an existing application, you can copy the necessary
elements from the example ladder logic into your application.
The rest of this chapter describes these steps in more detail.
First, define the module to the system. Right-click the mouse button on the I/O
Configuration option in the Controller Organization window to display a pop-up
menu. Select the New Module… option from the I/O Configuration menu.
