How to remove node module and its I/O modules out from Logix5000 properly?

[wendaiyu 0]

Hi, folks, how’s going?

 

There are 39 node modules on our Logix5000 controller via ControlNet. We modified the machine, so we want to remove the last node module and its I/O modules out physically.

 

How can we take them out from the cabinet properly?

Delete that node module configuration from the program? Then put the terminator on the last T-tap?

 

Thanks a lot.

I am no mean a Controlnet expert and I am looking to hear from other members about this topic but i believe you still have to reconfig the network using Rsnetworx ,physically remove the node and put the terminator after the last node ( in your case put the terminator on the last T-tap)   . Simply removing the node will cause the fault in the network since the keeper is actively scanning all the nodes in ControlNet. communicating with the Depending on the node communication ( schedule/unscheduled) ,you might also have to reschedule the network. Hope this helps!
