Discover Modules

To use the Discover Modules method with PointMax I/O modules, complete these steps:
  1. Go online with your Studio 5000 Logix Designer application.
    The project must include a PointMax EtherNet/IP adapter.
  2. Right-click the PointMax EtherNet/IP adapter and select Discover Modules.
    The Studio 5000 Logix Designer application automatically detects available modules that are connected to the backplane. The Select Module Type dialog appears with a list of modules detected.
  3. In the Select Module Type window, select Create for the module that you want to add.
    The New Module window with Device definition dialog appears.
  4. In the Device definition dialog, configure the module properties and select OK.
  5. If Apply changes warning dialog appears, select Yes.
  6. At the Create new module online warning dialog, select Create & inhibit.
  7. After adding as many as module you need, close the Select Module Type dialog.
    To add additional I/O modules with this method, complete one of the following:
    • If you selected the Close on Create checkbox when you created the first I/O module, repeat steps 2…7.
    • If you did not select the Close on Create checkbox when you created the first I/O module, repeat steps 3…7.
