CLX-APACS

In this example, the module is in rack 1slot 6. The alias is for an analog input from
channel 2 on the module, which is mapped to ControlLogix address input data at offset 1
of connection 8.

To build the alias name, ClxApacsMonCfg prefixes the name with the module name and
an underscore. It prefixes the address with the RSLinx path specifier.

This does not change the configuration in the module; the configuration in the module
changes only when you download.

Clearing the Configuration

monitor and master modes, or to update the module firmware (see page 44)
