2.6.2 Adding an Additional Module in RSLogix 5000
You can place multiple MVI69E-MBTCP modules in the same rack provided it
does not exceed the power distance rating of the CompactLogix rack (see
System Requirements (page 10)). Adding an additional module is similar to
installing a new module; however, the name of the module must be unique.
1 Start RSLogix 5000 and open the project.
2 In RSLogix 5000, locate the I/O CONFIGURATION folder. Right click
COMPACTBUS LOCAL and choose NEW MODULE.
3 In the Select Module Type dialog box, select theMVI69E-MBTCP module.
o If you are using an Add-On Profile (AOP), this adds the MVI69E-MBTCP
module and configures the relevant parameters. You must be using
RSLogix version 15 or later to to use an AOP.
o If using an AOP is not an option, select GENERIC 1769 MODULE and click
CREATE.
4 The New Module dialog box appears. Enter a unique name for the new
module, and confirm the slot number of the new module.
