1-4 About the 1734-AENT Adapter
Power Up a System For the First Time
When POINT I/O is powered for the first time, the adapter must assign
addresses to every module in the backplane. POINT I/O modules all ship
configured at the same address. Therefore, at first power up, it is expected that
all but one module on the backplane will exhibit a solid red Module Status
LED. One by one the adapter will reset these modules and address them
appropriately. The amount of time that this operation takes is proportional to
the size of your POINT I/O system.
Adapter Features
The 1734-AENT adapter’s features include:
• use of EtherNet/IP messages encapsulated within standard
TCP/UDP/IP protocol
• common application layer with ControlNet and DeviceNet
• interfacing via Category 5 rated twisted pair cable
• half/full duplex 10 Mbit or 100 Mbit operation
• DIN rail mounting
• communication to and from other POINT I/O modules on the same
DIN rail
• communication supported by RSLinx software
• IP address assigned via standard BootP or DHCP tools
• I/O configuration via RSLogix 5000 software
• no network scheduling required
• no routing tables required
• supports connections from multiple controllers simultaneously
