Hello,
I'm currently researching Rockwell controllers for our PLC implementation, but there are some aspects I couldn't find in the manuals.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide more details on the following:
①Procedure for Adding Modules Online:
In the manual "1756-um001p-en-p," it mentions the possibility of adding units online.
However, I couldn't find specific instructions on how to do this.
For instance, with I/O modules, I assume it's as simple as physically attaching them to the chassis using RIUP,
but I'm unsure about the software side (e.g., Logix5000) and any operations required on the controller itself.
②Online Module Addition for Remote I/O:
The manual mentions that EtherNet/IP modules can be added online. Would it be possible in either of the following scenarios?
②-1 Adding I/O modules to the chassis of an existing remote I/O station.
②-2 Creating a new remote station.
Our investigation has hit a roadblock, and we're in quite a quandary.
If you have any information on these matters, your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
