ControlLogix Aliases
AN-X uses the Ethernet/IP configuration to create aliases that can be imported into
RSLogix 5000. Use these alias tags in your RSLogix 5000 program to access the data on
the AN-X.
There are two sets of alias files, one for exclusive owner connections and one for listen
only connections.
In the web interface, select Automation Network/View Configuration Files.
To view the files, click either AN-X2-SQD-MAS Ethernet/IP ControlLogix I/O Data Tags
or AN-X2-SQD-MAS Ethernet/IP ControlLogix Input Only Data Tags.
To save the file to your computer, right click on the link and select Save Target As…
Importing Tags in RSLogix 5000
To import the tags into RSLogix 5000, you must be offline. Select Tools/Import Tags
and import the file.
Using the ControlLogix Log
If there are problems with scheduled connections to the AN-X, use the ControlLogix log
to identify the cause.
From the web interface, select Log Files/ControlLogix Log to display the log. Look for
error messages that describe in detail the cause of any problem with the current
configuration.
