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 master mode, the ControlLogix sends output data to the QTS-CLX-PVX, which then
transmits it as output data on the PROVOX Control I/O bus. The QTS-CLX-PVX sends
PROVOX input data to input data in the ControlLogix.

In monitor mode, the QTS-CLX-PVX sends PROVOX I/O input and output data to input
and status input data in the ControlLogix. It cannot transmit on the bus.

You should always access data using the aliases generated by the configuration program.

Module Configuration

Configure the module as a Generic module in RSLogix 5000.

The same ControlLogix configuration is used for master and monitor modes of the QTS-
CLX-PVX.
