Refer to the table for the meaning of common terms.  
Terminology  
This Term  
Means  
BootP  
BootP (Bootstrap Protocol) is a low-level protocol that provides  
configurations to other nodes on a TCP/IP network. BootP  
configuration files let you automatically assign IP addresses to an  
Ethernet module (you can also obtain subnet masks and gateway  
addresses from BootP).  
Bridge  
CIP  
A node between two similar communication subnets where protocol  
translation is minimal.  
Control and information protocol, the EtherNet/IP application layer  
uses the producer/consumer networking model. In this model one  
producer broadcasts (multicasts) the data once to all the consumers.  
All consumers see the data simultaneously and may choose whether  
to consume (receive) the data or not. Delivery time is consistent, no  
matter how many consumers there are.  
Connection  
The communication mechanism from the controller to another  
module in the control system, usually used to exchange I/O data.

Preface  
This Term  
consumer  
CSMA/CD  
Means  
A destination device in the CIP networking model. See CIP.  
Carrier sense multiple access/collision detection is the access  
method used in Ethernet. When a device wants to gain access to the  
network, it checks to see if the network is quiet (senses the carrier).  
If it is not, it waits a random amount of time before retrying. If the  
network is quiet and two devices access the line at exactly the same  
time, their signals collide. When the collision is detected, they both  
back off and each waits a random amount of time before retrying.  
Determinism  
DHCP  
The ability to predict when information will be delivered. Important in  
time-critical applications.  
The dynamic host configuration protocol is an Internet protocol,  
similar to BootP, for automating the configuration of computers that  
use TCP/IP. DHCP can be used to automatically assign IP addresses,  
to deliver IP stack configuration parameters, such as the subnet mask  
and default router, and to provide other configuration information,  
such as the addresses for printer, time, and news servers.  
The 1734-AENT factory default is DHCP enabled. When you apply  
power, the module sends a message containing its hardware address  
to any DHCP server on the network. The server(s) replies by sending a  
message with an appropriate IP address for the adapter. The adapter  
responds by acknowledging to a server that it will use the offered IP  
address.  
DNS  
The domain name system is a hierarchical, distributed method of  
organizing the name space of the Internet. The DNS administratively  
groups hosts into a hierarchy of authority that allows addressing and  
other information to be widely distributed and maintained. A big  
advantage to the DNS is that using it eliminates dependence on a  
centrally-maintained file that maps host names to addresses.  
Ethernet  
A physical layer standard using carrier sense multiple access with  
collision detection (CSMA/CD) methods.  
EtherNet/IP  
Ethernet industrial protocol applies a common application layer (CIP)  
over Ethernet by encapsulating messages in TCP/UDP/IP.  
Ethernet network  
Explicit messaging  
A local area network designed for the high-speed exchange of  
information between computers and related devices.  
Non-time critical messaging used for device configuration and data  
collection, such as downloading programs or peer-to-peer messaging  
between two PLC units.  
Full duplex  
A mode of communication that allows a device to send and receive  
information at the same time, effectively doubling the bandwidth.  
Fully qualified  
domain name  
A fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is a domain name that includes  
all higher level domains relevant to the entity named. If you think of  
the DNS as a tree-structure with each node having its own label, a  
fully qualified domain name for a specific node would be its label  
followed by the labels of all the other nodes between it and the root  
of the tree. For example, for a host, a FQDN would include the string  
that identifies the particular host, plus all domains of which the host  
is a part, up to and including the top-level domain (the root domain is  
always null). For example, PARIS.NISC.SRI.COM is a fully qualified  
domain name for the host at 192.33.33.109.

Preface

This Term  
Means  
Gateway  
A module or set of modules that allows communications between  
nodes on dissimilar networks.  
Hardware address  
Each Ethernet device has a unique hardware address (sometimes  
called a MAC address) that is 48 bits. The address appears as six  
digits separated by colons (such as, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx). Each digit has a  
value between 0 and 255 (0x00 to 0xFF). This address is assigned in  
the hardware and cannot be changed. The hardware address is  
required to identify the device if you are using a BOOTP utility.  
Host name  
The host name is the unique name for a computer within its domain.  
It's always the first element of a full name, and, with its domain and  
top-level domain suffix, creates the unique name of that computer on  
the Internet. For example, let's say a trading website is  
www.trading.com. The host name is www, which is not unique on  
the web, but is unique within the trading domain.  
The host name can also refer to the fully qualified domain name  
(FQDN), or in this example, www.trading.com. Both naming methods  
seem to be used interchangeably in various documents. For the  
purposes of this document, the host name will refer to the FQDN, or  
as in this example, www.trading.com.  
Hub  
A central connecting device that joins devices together in a star  
configuration. Hubs are generally not suitable for use in I/O control  
systems, since they are time-critical applications that cannot tolerate  
lost packets.  
Implicit messaging  
IP  
Real-time messaging of I/O data.  
Internet protocol that provides the routing mechanism for messages.  
All messages contain not only the address of the destination station,  
but the address of a destination network, which allows messages to  
be sent to multiple networks within an organization or around the  
world.  
IP address  
A 32-bit identification number for each node on an Internet Protocol  
network. These addresses are represented as four sets of 8-bit  
numbers (numbers from 0 to 255), with decimals between them. Each  
node on the network must have a unique IP address.  
Latency  
The time between initiating a request for data and the beginning of  
the actual data transfer.  
Multicast  
In the CIP producer/consumer model, one producer multicasts  
(broadcasts) the data once to all the consumers.  
Producer  
The source of information in the CIP networking model. See CIP.  
A physical and logical collection of application modules.  
Rack-optimized  
Subnet mask  
An extension of the IP address that allows a site to use a single net  
ID for multiple networks.  
Switch  
A network device that cross connects devices or network segments.  
A switch provides each sender/receiver the full network bandwidth  
(2x in full duplex mode), reduces collisions, and increases  
determinism.  
TCP  
The transport control protocol is a more reliable but slower transport  
protocol than UDP. It is used for explicit (not time critical) messaging  
in EtherNet/IP.

Transaction  
UDP  
An exchange of request and data and response and data.  
The user datagram protocol (UDP) is a transport protocol that  
provides a very simple but fast capability to send datagrams between  
two devices. It is used for I/O (implicit) messaging in EtherNet/IP.

About the Adapter  
This chapter provides an overview of the 1734-AENT POINT I/O  
What This Chapter Contains  
EtherNet/IP adapter, its primary features, and how to use it. You need  
to understand the concepts discussed in this chapter to configure your  
adapter and use it in an EtherNet/IP control system. See the table for a  
list of where to find specific information in this chapter.  
For Information About  
See Page  
Adapter Features  
1-4  
You must use series C POINT I/O modules with  
the 1734-AENT adapter. Series A or B POINT I/O  
modules will not work with this adapter.  
ATTENTION  
Before you begin using your adapter, note the following important  
considerations.  
Important Adapter  
Considerations  
Set the Chassis Size  
The 1734-AENT POINT I/O adapter for EtherNet/IP requires  
configuration of its chassis size before you can make any I/O  
connections. The default setting for the chassis size is 1 slot, which  
represents the adapter by itself.

1-2  
About the Adapter  
You must set the chassis size to a number equaling 1 slot for the  
adapter plus 1 slot for each I/O module present in the adapters  
backplane. For example, the adapter plus 4 I/O modules uses a  
chassis size of 5. The adapter stores this chassis size setting in  
non-volatile storage.  
When the adapters non-volatile chassis size does not match the actual  
number of modules present on its backplane, the adapter does not  
make any I/O connections and an error occurs, as shown in the  
Module Properties dialog.  
Adapter Replacement  
It is important to note that during a connection request from the  
controller, the chassis size setting for a 1734-AENT adapter is not  
communicated to the adapter. You must always set this chassis size  
using a separate operation. This includes situations when you are  
replacing an adapter. The adapter does not make any I/O connections  
until it is configured with the appropriate chassis size.  
Empty Slots and RIUP Situations  
The POINT I/O system does not have the ability to detect an empty  
terminal base. Because of this, there are numerous situations in which  
you can potentially configure a system that is unusable or one that  
exercises unintended control.  
In an attempt to address these situations, you must observe the  
following rules for POINT I/O system construction and the removal  
and reinsertion of modules.

About the Adapter  
1-3  
A correct POINT I/O system does not have any empty terminal  
bases.  
After you cycle power, the adapter will not run any I/O until the  
number of modules comprising the chassis equals the stored  
chassis size.  
Because the adapter cannot detect empty terminal bases, it  
cannot assume any safe operation until there is a match  
between the number of modules indicating their presence in  
the chassis and what the adapter has saved in non-volatile  
memory.  
Actual module identification (such as, electronic keying) is  
done when connection establishment requests are received  
from the controller or controllers.  
A module removed under power does not disrupt operation of  
the other I/O modules.  
When you remove a module, the adapter determines what  
changed.  
Whenever you remove a module with an active connection  
from the POINT I/O system, the adapter indicates this by  
flashing the POINTBus Status LED red and reports a minor  
recoverable fault.  
If more than one contiguous module is removed under power,  
connections to all modules in the contiguous missing module set  
are disallowed until all modules are replaced. Because the  
adapter cannot detect an empty base, it does not know the  
physical positioning of the modules until all the missing  
modules are replaced.  
If a module separating two sets of contiguous missing modules  
is removed, the two sets merge into a single set. All the modules  
must be replaced before connections are permitted to any  
module in the set.  
If modules of different types are removed and returned to the  
wrong locations, attempts to connect to these modules will fail  
during verification of the electronic ID (providing that keying  
has not been disabled).  
If modules of the same type are removed and returned to the  
wrong locations, they accept connections from the controller or  
controllers and reconfigure with the correct data once they pass  
their electronic keying check.  
These removal and return situations exist whether the system is  
under power or not. If the system is under power, the situation  
arises immediately. If the system is not under power, the  
situation arises in the next power cycle.

About the Adapter  
Cycle Power To a System For the First Time  
When you power POINT I/O 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.  
When you first apply power, we expect that all but one module on  
the backplane exhibits a solid red Module Status LED.  
One by one the adapter resets these modules and addresses them  
appropriately. The amount of time that this operation takes is  
proportional to the size of your POINT I/O system.  
The 1734-AENT adapters features include:

Support of messaging data for configuration and programming  
information (also known as explicit messaging)  
The 1734-AENT adapter uses the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP).  
CIP is the application layer protocol specified for EtherNet/IP, the  
Ethernet Industrial Protocol, as well as for ControlNet and DeviceNet  
networks. It is a message-based protocol that implements a relative  
path to send a message from the producing device in a system to the  
consuming devices.  
Use of the Common  
Industrial Protocol (CIP)  
The producing device contains the path information that steers the  
message along the proper route to reach its consumers. Since the

About the Adapter  
This has the following significant benefits.  
You do not need to configure routing tables in the bridging  
modules, which greatly simplifies maintenance and module  
replacement.  
You maintain full control over the route taken by each message,  
which enables you to select alternative paths for the same end  
device.  
The CIP producer/consumer networking model replaces the old  
source/destination (master/slave) model. The producer/consumer  
model reduces network traffic and increases speed of transmission. In  
traditional I/O systems, controllers poll input modules to obtain their  
input status. In the CIP system, input modules are not polled by a  
controller. Instead, they produce (multicast) their data either upon a  
change of state (COS) or periodically.  
Understand the  
Producer/Consumer Model  
The frequency of update depends upon the options chosen during  
configuration and where on the network the input module resides.  
The input module, therefore, is a producer of input data, and the  
controller is a consumer of the data.  
The controller can also produce data for other controllers to consume.  
The produced and consumed data is accessible by multiple controllers  
and other devices over the EtherNet/IP network. This data exchange  
conforms to the producer/consumer model.  
The RPI is the update rate specified for a particular piece of data on  
the network. The RPI can be specified for the adapter and include all  
of the I/O modules communicating through it (using a rack-optimized  
connection) or specified for a particular module (using direct  
connection).  
Specify the Requested  
Packet Interval (RPI)  
When you add a module or an adapter to the I/O configuration of a  
controller, you must enter the RPI as a parameter. This value specifies  
how often to produce the data for that device. For example, if you  
specify an RPI of 50 ms, it means that every 50 ms the device should  
send its data to the controller or the controller should send its data to  
the device.  
Use RPIs only for devices that exchange data. For example, a  
ControlLogix EtherNet/IP bridge module in the same chassis as the  
controller does not require an RPI, because it is not a data-producing  
member of the system. Its use is only as a bridge to remote racks.

About the Adapter  
1-7  
The 1734-AENT adapter supports both direct and rack-optimized  
connections. A direct connection is a real-time data transfer link  
between the controller and whatever module occupies the slot that  
Support of Rack-optimized  
and Direct Connections  
the configuration data references. Direct connection messaging occurs  
at a cyclic rate specified by the RPI during configuration. A  
rack-optimized connection is a grouping of data from more than one  
I/O module into a single block of data sent over a single connection  
at the same data rate.  
Rack-optimized connections reduce the total number of connections  
needed to transfer data when using many I/O modules in a system.  
The following example illustrates the benefit of rack-optimized  
connections.  
Assume you set up a system that contains 8 digital I/O modules  
interfaced to a 1734-AENT adapter. If you use direct connections to  
transfer data to each of the these I/O modules, you need 8  
connections to transfer all of the data, one to each of the 8 I/O  
modules. If you use a rack-optimized connection to transfer the data,  
you only need a single connection – the connection to the 1734-AENT  
adapter.  
Although rack-optimized connections offer an  
efficient way to use resources, there are a few  
limitations on their use:  
IMPORTANT  
You can use only rack-optimized connections  
to send data to and from digital I/O modules.  
Analog or speciality I/O requires direct  
connections.  
All data is sent at the same time as the RPI rate  
of the 1734-AENT adapter.  
See the EtherNet/IP Performance and Application Guide, publication  
number ENET-AP001, for more information on connections.  
Mix Rack-optimized and Direct Connections  
You can mix communication formats for different I/O modules  
communicating through the same adapter. I/O modules set up to use  
rack optimization communicate at the rate of the RPI configured for  
the 1734-AENT adapter. I/O modules configured for direct  
communication communicate at their own set RPIs and ignore the  
1734-AENT adapters RPI.

About the Adapter  
To effectively use your adapter, note the following considerations.  
Before You Begin  
Determine Compatibility  
If using the adapter with a 1756-ENBT module or 1788-ENBT module,  
use the following required firmware revisions for these bridge  
modules:  
1756-ENBT firmware revision 2.3 or later  
1788-ENBT firmware revision 1.33 or later  
If you use the BootP Utility to assign IP addresses to the adapter, use  
revision 2.3.2 or later.  
Understand Messaging  
Class 3 (Explicit Message) requests through the 1734-AENT adapter to  
a specific POINT I/O module may not always receive a response from  
the I/O modules. In the case where the I/O module does not reply to  
the request, the adapter responds with an error code indicating a  
timout.  
Establish I/O Connections  
When you apply power to a POINT I/O system and establish I/O  
connections, the outputs transition to the Idle state, applying Idle state  
data before going to RUN mode. This occurs even when the controller  
making the connection is already in RUN mode.  
Configure Autobaud  
The adapter cannot reconfigure an I/O module that you previously  
configured to operate at a fixed communication rate. When you reuse  
a POINT I/O module from another POINT I/O system, configure the  
module to autobaud before using it with the adapter.

Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP  
Network  
Before using your adapter in an EtherNet/IP network, configure it  
What This Chapter Contains  
with an IP address, subnet mask, and optional Gateway address. This  
chapter describes these configuration requirements and the  
procedures for providing them. Here are ways you can do this:  
Use the Rockwell BootP utility, version 2.3 or later, that ships  
with RSLogix 5000 or RSLinx software.  
You can also use this utility to reconfigure a device with an IP  
address you must change.  
Use a third party DHCP server.  
Use the Network Address thumbwheel switch.  
Have your network administrator configure the adapter via the  
network server.  
See the table for a list of where to find information in this chapter.

Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network  
Before you can use your adapter, you must configure its IP address,  
its subnet mask, and, optionally, gateway address. You can use the  
Rockwell BootP utility, version 2.3 or later, to perform the  
configuration. You can also use a DHCP server or the network  
address switches to configure these parameters.

The DHCP Enabled function is enabled (set to  
True).  
The Ethernet link is negotiated automatically  
(the Auto Negotiate function will be set to

The web server is enabled (the Disabled Web  
Server function is disabled).  
The password for this page resets to the  
factory default (the word password is the  
factory default password).  
Note the value of the switches before you enter  
the 888 value, because you return the adapter to  
those values once this process is complete.

Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network  
3-3  
If using the BootP/DHCP utility, you need to  
know the Ethernet hardware address of your  
adapter. Rockwell assigns each 1734-AENT  
IMPORTANT  
adapter a unique 48-bit hardware address at the  
factory. The address is printed on a label on the  
side of your 1734-AENT adapter as shown in the  
figure. It consists of six hexadecimal digits  
separated by colons. This address is fixed by the  
hardware and cannot be changed.  
Ifyou change orreplace the 1734-AENTadapter,you  
mustenterthe new Ethernethardware addressofthe  
adapter when you configure the new adapter.  
IP Address  
The IP address identifies each node on the IP network (or system of  
connected networks). Each TCP/IP node on a network (including the  
1734-AENT adapter) must have a unique IP address.  
The IP address is 32 bits long and has a net ID part and Host ID part.  
Networks are classified A, B, C, (or other). The class of the network  
determines how an IP address is formatted.

Each node on the same physical network must have an IP address of  
the same class and must have the same net ID. Each node on the  
same network must have a different Host ID thus giving it a unique IP  
address.

Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network  
IP addresses are written as four decimal integers (0 to 255) separated  
by periods where each integer gives the value of one byte of the IP  
address.  
For example, the 32-bit IP address:  
EXAMPLE  
10000000 00000001 00000000 00000001 is written as  
128.1.0.1  
Gateway Address  
This section applies to multi-network systems. If you have a single  
network system, refer to the next section.  
The Gateway Address is the default address of a network. It provides  
a single domain name and point of entry to the site. Gateways  
connect individual physical networks into a system of networks.  
When a node needs to communicate with a node on another network,  
a gateway transfers the data between the two networks. The figure  
shows gateway G connecting Network 1 with Network 2.

B
128.2.0.1  
128.2.0.2  
Network 2  
When host B with IP address 128.2.0.1 communicates with host C, it  
knows from Cs IP address that C is on the same network. In an  
Ethernet environment, B can then resolve Cs IP address into a  
hardware address (MAC address) and communicate with C directly.  
When host B communicates with host A, it knows from A’s IP address  
that A is on another network (the net IDs are different). In order to  
send data to A, B must have the IP address of the gateway connecting  
the two networks. In this example, the gateways IP address on  
Network 2 is 128.2.0.3.

Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network

The gateway has two IP addresses (128.1.0.2 and 128.2.0.3). The first  
must be used by hosts on Network 1 and the second must be used by  
hosts on Network 2. To be usable, a hosts gateway must be  
addressed using a net ID matching its own.  
Subnet Mask  
The subnet mask is used for splitting IP networks into a series of  
subgroups, or subnets. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched  
up with the IP address to turn part of the Host ID address field into a  
field for subnets.  
Take Network 2 (a Class B network) in the  
EXAMPLE  
previous example and add another physical  
network. Selecting the following subnet mask  
would add two additional net ID bits, allowing  
for four physical networks:  
11111111 11111111 11000000 00000000 =  
255.255.192.0  
These two bits of the Host ID are used to  
extend the net ID.  
Two bits of the Class B host ID are used to extend the net ID. Each  
unique combination of bits in the part of the Host ID where subnet  
mask bits are 1 specifies a different physical network.

The adapter reads the thumbwheel switches only when you cycle  
power to determine if the switches are set to a valid number. Press  
either the + or - buttons to change the number.  
Valid settings range from 001 to 254. When the switches are set to a  
valid number, the adapters IP address will be 192.168.1.xxx (where  
xxx represents the number set on the switches). The adapters subnet  
mask will be 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0.  
The adapter will not have a host name assigned, or use any Domain  
Name System when using the thumbwheel settings.  
If the switches are set to an invalid number (such as 000 or a value  
greater than 254), the adapter checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If  
DHCP is enabled, the adapter requests an address from a DHCP  
server. The DHCP server will also assign other Transport Control  
Protocol (TCP) parameters.  
If DHCP is not enabled, the adapter will use the IP address (along  
with other TCP configurable parameters) stored in nonvolatile  
memory. The factory default switch setting is 999, and DHCP is  
enabled.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) software automatically  
assigns IP addresses to client stations logging onto a TCP/IP network.  
Use DHCP Software to  
Configure Your Adapter  
DHCP is based on BootP and maintains some backward compatibility.  
The main difference is that BootP was designed for manual  
configuration, while DHCP allows for dynamic allocation of network  
addresses and configurations to newly attached devices.  
Be cautious about using DHCP software to configure your adapter. A  
DHCP server typically assigns a finite lease time to the offered IP  
address.  
When 50% of the leased time has expired, the 1734-AENT adapter  
attempts to renew its IP address with the DHCP server.  
The possibility exists that the adapter will be assigned a different IP  
address, which would cause the adapter to cease communicating with  
the ControlLogix controller.

I/O modules via the 1734-AENT adapter using a direct connection.  
What This Chapter Contains  
The adapter makes a direct connection to each of the modules  
referenced by the data. The modules presented in this chapter use  
RSLogix 5000 software, version 11.  
What You Do  
See Page  
You must use series C POINT I/O modules with  
the 1734-AENT adapter. Series A or B POINT I/O  
modules will not work with this adapter.  
ATTENTION  
In this example, a ControlLogix chassis contains the Logix5555  
processor in slot 1 and a 1756-ENBT bridge module in slot 3.

Each POINT I/O connection established with the 1734-AENT adapter  
consumes a portion of the microprocessors bandwidth. The amount  
of bandwidth used by a connection depends on a number of  
variables, including the requested packet interval (RPI), the number of  
POINT I/O modules involved in the connection, and the rate of  
change of the I/O.  
Recover From an  
Overloaded Adapter  
The 1734-AENT adapter continuously monitors this bandwidth and  
rejects requests for new connections when there is insufficient  
bandwidth available to support the new connection.  
The condition where the 1734-AENT adapter cannot support the  
connection due to a limit of the microprocessors bandwidth is shown  
in the following dialog.  
If you encounter this condition, the only action you can take is to alter  
the existing connections to reduce the amount of microprocessor  
bandwidth consumed. The most likely fixes for this condition include  
the following.  
Increase the RPI.  
Decrease the number of connections.

Configure the Adapter for Direct Connection  
and Rack Optimization in RSLogix 5000  
Software  
This chapter guides you through the steps required to configure your  
1734 POINT I/O Ethernet adapter for both direct connection and rack  
optimization using RSLogix 5000 software.  
What This Chapter Contains  
You can mix communication formats for different I/O modules  
communicating through the same adapter. I/O modules set up to use  
rack optimization communicate at the rate of the RPI configured for  
the 1734-AENT adapter.  
I/O modules configured for direct communication communicate at  
their own set RPI and ignore the 1734-AENT adapter RPI. The  
modules presented in this chapter have a configuration using RSLogix  
5000 software, version 15. The chapter contains the following main  
sections:  
What You Do  
See Page  
You must use series C POINT I/O modules with  
the 1734-AENT adapter. Series A or B POINT I/O  
modules will not work with this adapter.

Slot Status Bits: The Slot Status bits display the connection status  
for each of the POINT I/O modules that use a rack-optimized  
connection.  
Bit 0 is reserved for the adapter and always reports a value of  
1.  
Each of the other bits (1 to 63) correspond to a POINT I/O  
module that you install in the POINT I/O backplane.  
In this example, we configured the 1734-AENT adapter for  
both rack-optimized and direct connections.  
The slot status bits indicate that we installed the module in  
slot 2 with it operating correctly:  
0=module participating with no errors and  
1=module not participating or connection error (typically,  
module removed/missing)

Appendix  
D
Quick Start  
In this quick start, you learn how to use the 1734-AENT adapter with a  
ControlLogix controller for EtherNet/IP systems.  
What This Appendix  
Contains  
This quick start contains a simple set of steps and  
IMPORTANT  
reminders that will help you avoid errors when you  
are configuring your POINT I/O system for and  
EtherNet/IP network.  
You must use series C POINT I/O modules with  
the 1734-AENT adapter. Series A or B POINT I/O  
modules will not work with this adapter.  
ATTENTION  
Necessary Prerequisites  
Before you begin this quick start, make sure the following conditions  
are in place.  
The ControlLogix controller and RSLogix software version must  
be version 11 or later.  
The 1756-ENBT module must be revision 2.3 or later.  
The 1734 POINT I/O modules must be series C (except for the  
1734-232ASC modules, which can be series A).  
The recommended RPIs are being used: Digital = 10 ms or  
higher, Analog and Specialty = 50 ms or higher.  
The 1734-AENT POINT I/O adapter is a child to a local  
1756-ENBT module.

D-2  
Quick Start  
In the 1734-AENT Module Properties dialog, perform the following  
steps.  
Configure the Adapter  
1. Complete the Name field.  
2. Enter the following address into the IP Address field:  
192.168.1.42  
You are setting the last digit, because the first three digits are set  
for you as set by the push wheel switches on the adapter. The  
push wheel switches should be set to 042.  
3. From the Comm Format menu, choose None if you do not want  
a rack-optimized connection, or choose Rack Optimization if  
you want a rack-optimized connection.  
4. For the Electronic Keying field, select Compatible Module.  
5. Enter the Chassis Size.  
Regarding chassis size, the POINT I/O adapter itself takes up a  
count in the chassis. The default chassis size for the POINT I/O  
is 1, which covers the adapter only and allows for no I/O. To  
configure your POINTBus modules, set the chassis size to the  
physical amount of your I/O modules plus one for the adapter;  
otherwise, you get an error. For example, if you have six  
modules in the chassis, you must set chassis to 6+1=7.  
6. Enter the Slot.  
For the adapter itself, the slot number is always 0 and cannot be  
modified.  
7. Click Finish.  
Your I/O Configuration tree now looks similar to the following:

Quick Start  
D-5  
For RSLogix 5000 software version 13 and earlier, configure your 1734  
POINT I/O modules via the Controller Tags database, using the  
following steps. For RSLogix 5000 software, versions 15 or later, the  
preferred method for module configuration is to use the Module  
Properties dialog for each POINT I/O module, as described in the  
individual user manual for the module.  
Configure 1734 POINT I/O  
Modules  
1. Double-click the Controller Tags in the project dialog.  
Look at the bottom of the screen to make sure you are in the  
Monitor Tags tab.  
We are going to assume there is an analog input module  
1734-IE2V, which resides in slot 6. We configure Channel 0 of  
this module to operate over the range -10 to +10V dc.  
2. Click the configuration tag remote_POINT_IO:3:C.  
From here you can set the modules configuration and alarms.  
In this configuration dialog, you enter the values that would  
correspond to the desired range. The range type default value  
for a 1734-IE2V module is 2, which is equal to 0 to 10V dc.  
3. Click the configuration tag for the module in slot 4,  
remote_POINT_IO:3:Ch0RangeType.  
4. Check the value in the tag  
remote_POINT_IO:3:C.Ch0RangeType.

D-6  
Quick Start  
It is set to 2, which is the default value. There are two settings  
that this module supports:  
2 = 0 to 10V dc  
0 = -10 to +10V dc  
5. Click the value 2 and change it to 0, which changes the voltage  
range to -10 to +10V dc for channel 0.  
Note the following:  
The controller sends the configuration data only when  
connection is being established.  
Should you need to modify any of the tag values once you  
change the tag, you need to access the updated information  
and download it into the module. These are the ways to  
download the updated configuration information into the  
module.  
Ideally, you enter the correct code number in the Range Type  
field at the same time that you add the I/O to the I/O  
Configuration tree. You then download later.

Quick Start  
D-7  
If you downloaded the offline configuration into the module  
and then realize that you must modify any of the modules  
configuration parameters, then the preferred way to make  
these changes online is to go to the Module Connection tab  
and inhibit the module, apply the changes, and then uninhibit  
the module. Doing this breaks the connection, causing the  
configuration information to be downloaded right after the  
connection is made.  
Switching the controller from Program to Run mode  
IMPORTANT  
does not change the module connection status and  
does not re-send module configuration data.  
We highly recommend that you use the  
inhibit/uninhibit process and avoid power cycling.  
6. Right-click the 1734-AENT adapter and select Properties.  
7. Click the Connection tab.  
You see the following message:  
The module is faulted because, even though you set up the  
adapters POINT I/O chassis size to the actual number of the  
modules plus the adapter, the adapter still remembers the size of  
1 (the factory default value) until you reset this size manually.  
This option is available only online.  
8. Click the Chassis Size tab.  
9. Click the Set Chassis Size in Module button and set the chassis  
size in the adapter.

D-8  
Quick Start  
Remember to inhibit and unhibit the module for this to take  
effect.  
Now you can put your controller in Run mode, and the  
connection should be successful.  
The information found in the Controller Tag  
Reference section of this user manual is also  
IMPORTANT  
available in the RSLogix 5000 online help file. Use  
the Help file search function under the 1734 catalog  
number that you are configuring and select the  
Module Defined Data Types option. You see all of  
the configurable parameters and associated values.
