Adapter Qualification
In a Redundant Adapter configuration, one adapter takes the Primary role and
a second adapter becomes Qualified Secondary ready to take I/O control in the
event that the primary becomes disqualified.
To complete the qualification process the following conditions must be met.
The modules must:
•
have the same firmware revision.
•
reside in slots 0 and 1 of the same chassis.
•
be initially set to the same IP address.
•
have at least one Ethernet port link active.
•
be connected to the same Ethernet network.
To configure a 1756-EN4TR redundant adapter pair, use the following steps.
1. To set the IP address, see
2. Make sure you are using Logix Designer in the offline mode.
3. In the I/O configuration tree, add the 1756-EN4TR in slot 0.
4. Name your module and enter the IP Address.
Do not put any devices in slot 1 in the I/O configuration tree.
IMPORTANT
5. Click change under the module definition pane, and select "Yes" for
