IMPORTANT

You must run RSNetWorx for ControlNet software whenever a new I/O module is added to a scheduled ControlNet chassis. 

When a module is permanently removed from a remote chassis, 

we recommend that you run RSNetWorx for ControlNet software to reschedule the network and optimize the allocation of network bandwidth. 

The I/O configuration portion of the RSLogix 5000® programming software generates the

configuration data for each I/O module in the control system, 

whether the module is in a local or remote chassis. 

A remote chassis, also known as networked, contains the I/O module but not the module’s owner-controller.

A remote chassis can be connected to the controller via a scheduled connection on the ControlNet network or an EtherNet/IP network.

RSLogix 5000 configuration data is transferred to the controller during the program 

download and later transferred to the appropriate I/O modules. 

I/O modules in the local chassis, and modules in a remote chassis connected via the EtherNet/IP network, 

or unscheduled connections on the ControlNet network, are ready to run as soon as the configuration data has been downloaded. 

However, to enable scheduled connections to I/O modules on the ControlNet network, 

you must schedule the network by using RSNetWorx for ControlNet software.

Running RSNetWorx™ software transfers configuration data to I/O modules on a 

scheduled ControlNet network and establishes a network update time (NUT) for the 

ControlNet network that is compliant with the desired communication options specified for each module during configuration.

1756 ControlLogix-XT Controllers

The ControlLogix-XT™ controllers function in the same way as the traditional ControlLogix controllers.

The ControlLogix-XT products include control and communication system components that are conformally coated

for extended protection in harsh, corrosive environments:

• When used with FLEX I/O-XT™ products, the ControlLogix-XT system can withstand temperature ranges of -20…+70 °C (-4…+158 °F).

• When used independently, the ControlLogix-XT system can withstand temperature ranges of -25…+70 °C (-13…+158 °F).

• Customers who previously used the LXT chassis should now migrate to the K version of the chassis.
