Compact 5000 I/O Serial Module Operation
Ownership
Every I/O module in a Logix 5000™ control system must be owned by a
controller, also known as the owner-controller. When the Compact 5000 I/O
modules are used in a Logix 5000 control system, the owner-controller performs
the following:
• Stores configuration data for every module that it owns.
• Can reside in a location that differs from the Compact 5000 I/O modules.
• Sends the I/O module configuration data to define module behavior and
begin operation in the control system.
Each Compact 5000 I/O serial module must continuously maintain
communication with its owner-controller during normal operation.
