Chapter 10 EtherNet/IP Communication
allows users to save commissioning time by preprogramming a device offline
using RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000. It also removes the need for maintenance
personnel to have a computer and special programming software when replacing
a device.
Shown in the following pages are three examples and the steps necessary to
configure a Logix controller for I/O messaging.
• Pre-configured E300 relay Logix Integration with Add-on Profile
• Offline E300 relay Logix Integration with Add-on Profile
• Offline E300 relay Integration with a Generic Profile
Preconfigured E300 relay Logix Integration with an Add-On Profile
The E300 Add-on Profile for RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 software
automatically enables Automatic Device Configuration. The Logix controller
overwrites any existing E300 relay configuration data when the Logix controller
establishes a connection to the E300 relay.
For E300 relays that come preconfigured in an Allen-Bradley Low Voltage Motor
Control Center, in an Allen-Bradley Medium Voltage Motor Control Center, or
in an electrical enclosure from a panel builder or system integrator, you can add
the E300 relay to a new or existing RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 project and
retain the configuration information that is stored in the E300 relay using
Module Discovery
or Manually Adding a New Module.
Module Discovery
You can add a preconfigured E300 relay online to a ControlLogix processor using
module discovery and retain all of the E300 relay’s configuration settings.
Module discovery is only available for ControlLogix processors. CompactLogix
users must manually add an E300 relay to an RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000
ATTENTION: If an Upload command is not performed while discovering
modules or manually adding a E300 relay online to a ControlLogix project, any
preconfigured E300 relay configuration data is not retained.
See Preconfigured E300 relay Logix Integration with an Add-On Profile on
page 578 for information on how to upload configuration data when adding an
E300 relay to a ControlLogix project online.
ATTENTION: If an Upload command is not performed while manually adding
an E300 relay offline in an RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 project, any
preconfigured E300 relay configuration data is not retained when downloading
the project to the Logix controller.
See Preconfigured E300 relay Logix Integration with an Add-On Profile on
page 578 for information on how to upload configuration data when adding an
E300 relay to an RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 project offline.
