Adding the Module to an Existing MicroLogix Project
If you are installing and configuring the module with a MicroLogix processor,
follow these steps. If you are using a CompactLogix processor, refer to the
previous section.
The first step in setting up the processor ladder file is to define the I/O type
module to the system. Start RSLogix 500, and follow these steps:
1 In RSLogix, open your existing application, or start a new application,
depending on your requirements.
2 Double-click the I/O Configuration icon located in the Controller folder in the
project tree. This action opens the I/O Configuration dialog box.
3 On the I/O Configuration dialog box, select "Other - Requires I/O Card Type
ID" at the bottom of the list in the right pane, and then double-click to open
the Module dialog box.
