Configuring the I/O
This chapter provides instructions on how to configure a Rockwell
Automation controller (ControlLogix, PLC-5, SLC 500 or MicroLogix
1100) to communicate with the adapter and PowerFlex drive.
Using RSLinx Classic
RSLinx Classic, in all its variations (Lite, Gateway, OEM, etc.), is used
to provide a communication link between the computer, network, and
controller. RSLinx Classic requires its network-specific driver to be
configured before communications are established with network
devices. To configure the RSLinx driver:
1. Start RSLinx and select Communications > Configure Drivers to
display the Configure Drivers screen.
2. In the Available Driver Types box, select “EtherNet/IP Driver” and
then click Add New to display the EtherNet/IP Driver Selection screen.
3. When the Add New RSLinx Driver screen appears, type a name (if
desired) and click OK to display the “Configure driver:” screen.
4. Depending on your application, select either the browse local or remote
subnet option, and click OK. The Configure Drivers screen reappears
with the new driver in the Configured Drivers list (Figure 4.1
).

5. Click Close to close the Configure Drivers screen. Leave RSLinx
running.
