Configuring an I/O Connection
Before configuring an I/O connection, you must:
• Configure the WebPak 3000 drive network parameters (refer to chapter 3 in D2-3425-2), set the network
drop number appropriately, and set the control source to network.
• Verify that you have used RSNetWorx for ControlNet to configure the network containing the ControlLogix
chassis and WebPak 3000 drive.
Use the following procedure to configure an I/O connection:
Step 1. After opening the RSLogix 5000 software, verify that you are off-line with the ControlLogix processor.
You can configure an I/O connection when starting a new project or after opening an existing project,
but I/O can only be configured off-line.
