Configuring the SynchLink Module
This chapter describes how to configure the ControlLogix SynchLink module
using RSLogix 5000.
You must configure your module upon installation. The module will not work
until it has been configured.
This chapter offers a configuration overview and the three available
ControlLogix SynchLink configurations. For specific examples of each
configuration, see the following:
• Star Configuration - Appendix B - This example shows a configuration
using Remote Axis Data.
• Daisy Chain Configuration - Appendix C
• Ring Configuration - Appendix D

Configuration Software
Use RSLogix 5000 to write configuration for your SynchLink module. You
must write configuration for each module because module position in the
SynchLink system affects configuration. For example, if a SynchLink module is
the Time Master for the system, it must be configured as such.
