Driver and Path Configuration dialog box settings

Use the
Drive and Path Configuration
 dialog box to manually enter a communications driver and path. The following are the
Driver and Path Configuration
 dialog box settings:
TIP:
  • Configure ControlNet and DH+ drivers in the <RSLC> user interface or in the
    FactoryTalk Administration Console
     for
    FactoryTalk Linx
    .
  • Manually-entered drivers and paths do not appear in the
    Who Active
     dialog box. Drivers and paths appear wherever the current path normally displays, with the driver and path concatenated, such as AB_KTC-1\2,6,1,0.

Description

Logix Designer
 uses when executing a

NOTE:
For
ControlNet
 and
DH+
, construct the path starting from the communications module in the local chassis. Separate the number or addresses entered in each step with a comma. All numbers are decimal, by default. Enter any number other than an Ethernet/IP address in another base by using an IEC-1131 prefix ("8#" for octal, "16#" for hexadecimal). Ethernet/IP addresses are always dot-separated decimal numbers.
