To message to an Ethernet Network Interface (ENI) or MicroLogix 1100,
enter the target device’s IP address in the first row ‘To Address’ field.
To message to a CompactLogix, ControlLogix, or FlexLogix controller, enter
the controller’s Ethernet interface IP address in the first row ‘To Address’
field, press the keyboard insert key to add a hop (which appends a second row
labeled ControlLogix Backplane) and enter the controller’s backplane slot
number (0 to 16 for ControlLogix, always 0 for CompactLogix and FlexLogix)
in the second row ‘To Address’ field.
To message through a ControlLogix gateway to ControlNet, DH+, or
DH-485, enter the slot number of the desired network interface module in the
second row ‘To Address’ field, press the keyboard insert key to add another
hop (which appends a third row), select the appropriate ‘From Device’ and
‘From Port’ (if applicable) and enter the node address in ‘To Address’ field.
Some message routes may require adding additional hops. Not all message
routes entered with the software are valid. The software validates the construct
of the message route when the rung is verified.
