OVERVIEW


"Add-On version 1.3 considers data block 0 (read and write) as containing the first data block. 
Block 0 is only generated when a maximum of one block is configured. 
This feature was introduced in version 2.04.000.

SELECTING THE LADDER FILE

>For CompactLogix version 16.xx.xx

RSLogix version 16 introduced the Add-On instruction funcionality that allows
the encapsulation of several ladder rungs into one single instruction. The sample 
ladder logic for v16 uses the Add-On instruction in order to provide a quick and easy
setup procedure for your MVI56-MNETC module.
You can either import the required components into your existing ladder through the 
MVI56(E)MNETC_AddOn_Rung_v1_3.L5X file or refer to the sample ladder file MVI56MNETC_v16.ACD. 

In order import the required components into your existing ladder program follow
the steps below:  

1) Create a new RSLogix project for version 16

2) Create a new module 1756-MODULE (I/O Configuration) with the following settings: 

Name                            = MVI56MNETC
Comm Format                     = Data-INT
Input Assembly Instance         = 1
Input Assembly Size             = 250
Output Assembly Instance        = 2
Output Assembly Size            = 248
Configuration Assembly Instance = 4

Adjust the Slot and RPI settings(if enabled) for your application.

Note - recommended RPI time is 5.0ms for local rack applications. 

3) Write-click at the rung where the Add-On instruction will be inserted.
Select Import Rung... and select the AOI56MNETC.L5X file.  During the import 
procedure associate the input and output images with the ones generated 
during step 1 (default are for slot 1). 

4) Once the import procedure is completed the Add-On instruction will be 
displayed at the ladder rung. The procedure has also imported new User-Defined Data types
and New Controller tags. 

5) Verify the project 

6) Save the project

7) Download the project to the ControlLogix processor


You can also refer to the sample ladder MVI56MNETC_v16.ACD that already 
contains the complete project with the Add-On instruction and module created 
with correct settings.
