Mounting Steps

  1. Power down or use RIUP if supported by chassis.
  2. Insert module into any available ControlLogix chassis slot.
  3. Secure the module locking tab.
  4. Connect Ethernet cables to both ports for PRP operation.
  5. Configure IP address and network parameters in Studio 5000.

Buying Advice

  • Select when high-availability parallel network topology is required.
  • Verify controller firmware supports the module version.
  • Plan for dual independent network infrastructure for full PRP benefit.
