the configuration parameters.
Some new module configuration categories apply to all FLEX 5000 digital I/O 
modules. Some categories are specific to the module type. 
For example purposes, the figures in this section are from a 5094-IB16 module.
The following categories apply to all FLEX 5000 digital I/O modules and are 
described in this section.
• General Category
• Connection Category
• Module Info Category
General Category
The General category appears first when you create a module. The parameters in 
this category are the same for all FLEX 5000 digital I/O modules.
You use this category to complete the following tasks:
• Name the module.
• Assign a slot number. (required)
• Describe the module.
• Access the Module Definition.
IMPORTANT This chapter shows how to edit configuration when you add the module to 
the Logix Designer application project.
If you access the module configuration after it is added to the project, the 
dialog box is named Module Properties. The same categories are displayed 
as the categories displayed on the New Module dialog box.
