ControlLogix Alias Tags

AN-X uses the Ethernet/IP configuration to create alias tags that can be
imported into RSLogix 5000. Use these tags in your RSLogix 5000
program to access the data on the AN-X. Even if the ControlLogix
address for an I/O address changes, all you have to do is re-import the
tags.

WARNING!

If you change the remote I/O or ControlLogix configuration, re-import
tags so that the ControlLogix processor uses the correct addresses.

There are two sets of tag files, one for exclusive owner connections and
one for input only connections.

In the web interface, select Automation Network/View Configuration
Files

.

To view the files, click either AN-X-TI Ethernet/IP ControlLogix
Exclusive Owner Data Tags

or AN-X-TI Ethernet/IP ControlLogix Input

Only Data Tags
