Configuration
After installing the 1769-IF8u universal input module, you must configure it
for operation, usually using the programming software compatible with the
controller (for example, RSLogix 500 or RSLogix 5000). Once
configuration is complete and reflected in the ladder logic, you need to
operate the module and verify its configuration.
