Configuring the Module in RSLogix 5000
You configure the module in RSLogix 5000 to set how much scheduled data to transfer
and how often to transfer it.
The terms input and output are relative to the ControlLogix.
In monitor mode, the QTS-CLX-APACS sends APACS IOBUS input and output data to
input data in the ControlLogix. The QTS-CLX-APACS cannot transmit on the bus.
In master mode, the ControlLogix sends output data to the QTS-CLX-APACS, which
then transmits it as output data on the APACS IOBUS. The QTS-CLX-APACS sends
APACS input data to input data in the ControlLogix.
You should always access data using the aliases generated by the configuration programs.
Module Configuration
The ControlLogix configuration may be different for master and monitor modes of the
QTS-CLX-APACS.
The Windows configuration tools show the required connections and minimum
connection sizes.
The QTS-CLX-APACS module supports up to 10 scheduled connections. Connection 9
is reserved for diagnostics.
Discrete data is mapped from connection 0 upwards, analog data is mapped to connection
8 downwards.
Adding the Module
1. Place an ENBT in the I/O tree.
Disable keying, set the Rack Connection to None, and set the slot to whatever slot the
QTS-CLX-APACS is in.
The IP address doesn't matter, e.g., use Private Network 192.168.1.77
The Name doesn't matter, e.g., use ApacsEmuEnbt
