Configure the Adapter for Direct Connection, Rack Optimization, and Enhanced Rack Optimization in RSLogix 5000 or Logix Designer Software Chapter 5
Note that the RPI is selectable and has a default value. Because we are
making a direct connection to each I/O module, we must specify an RPI to
determine how often the data is exchanged with the adapter for each
module
8. From the New Module dialog, enter 50 for the Requested Packet Interval
(RPI).
9. Keep the following unchecked.
a. Inhibit Module
b. Major Fault on Controller If Connection fails While in Run Mode
10. Click OK.
11. Choose File Save and enter the name and location of the file.
Download the Program to
the Controller
Follow this procedure to download the program we just saved to the
ControlLogix controller.
1. From the main menu, choose Communications>Who Active.
2. From the Who Active dialog, navigate to select the slot where the
controller is located in the chassis.
3. Click Set Project Path.
To avoid overloading the I/O adapter, we recommend that the RPI be
no less than 10 ms for rack-optimization and enhanced rack-
optimization connections, and 50 ms for direct connections.
