Connect to the Network Using a 1786-CP Cable
Use the following wiring diagram to connect the programming terminal to the network using
a 1786-CP cable.
The 1786-CP cable can plug into any ControlNet product’s NAP to provide programming
capability on the ControlNet network. A programming terminal connected through this cable
is counted as a node and must have a unique address.
IMPORTANT
If you use a non-redundant cable system, all ControlNet devices must be
on the same channel. We recommend channel A.
WARNING
If you connect or disconnect the ControlNet network access port (NAP)
cable with power applied to this module or any device on the network, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
ATTENTION
Use the 1786-CP cable when you connect a programming terminal to
the network through the NAP; using another cable could result in
possible network failures or product damage.
IMPORTANT
The NAP is only available on the 1788-CNF card. It is not available
on the 1788-CNFR card.
