1. Introduction
1.1. bout this product
The SlotServer Instruction Manual provides the information necessary to configure the
SlotServer, allowing an Allen Bradley Control ogix platform to pass data between a
Control ogix CPU and other third party communications protocols supported by the
SlotServer. The SlotServer uses implicit communications between the CPU and the
SlotServer and is consequently treated as an I/O Server in RSLogix.
The SlotServer Instruction Manual covers information for installing the SlotServer, and
configuring the module to transfer data with the CPU on the Control ogix Rack. Depending
on the SlotServer Module ordered, supplementary driver manuals are provided for
information on how to configure the third party protocols residing in the SlotServer.
1.2. bout LonWorks and Profiling
Inherent to the design of onWorks is the intention that all nodes residing on a onWorks
network possess a profile which accurately describes the network variables available to the
onWorks network. This profile is declared to the onWorks network by means of an
External Interface File (XIF). This XIF remains unchanged for any particular profile. In other
words, a change in the XIF is by definition a new profile.
The Open Interface profile for SlotServer provides a generic list of SNVT’s that can be used
to bind the most common onWorks data types to the SlotServer for data transfer. This
document describes the fixed Open Interface profile for the SlotServer. However, as a
onMark compatible product, the SlotServer platform is also capable of supporting other
profiles. For further information, please contact FieldServer Technologies and enquire
about available Specific Profiles and other SlotServer Profiling Services.
1.3. Connection Capability
SLOTSERVER MODE LONWORKS
NODES COMMENTS
C IENT (SCANNER) 15
As an implicitly bound object in onWorks, the
onWorks protocol only supports the binding of this
device to no more than 15 other nodes.
SERVER (ADAPTER) N/A
The Control ogix CPU is always configured as a
scanner to communicate with the SlotServer adapter.

2. Pre-Startup checklist
2.1. ccessories supplied with the SlotServer
Please verify that the following components were supplied with the SlotServer module:
FieldServer Technologies
P RT # Description
2-way combi-comb connector for onWorks port
Software CD
CAT-5 Direct Ethernet Cable
Documentation Binder
2.2. Third party components (not supplied by FieldServer Technologies)
The following components will need to be procured as a minimum for achieving a
onWorks/Control ogix integration. Ensure that these are available before commencing
with commissioning
Part # Description
AB1756-Ax Control ogix Rack
AB1756- 55/ 61 Control ogix CPU
AB1756-PA7x Control ogix PSU
9324-R D300ENE RS OGIX 5000
onWorks NetWork Manager (e.g: onMaker)
onWorks Network components.
2.3. Required configuration for the SlotServer
In order to achieve data transfer between CPU tags and onWorks network variables, the
SlotServer will need to be commissioned into a onWorks network using a onWorks
Network Manager. Once commissioned and bound, data from the onWorks network is
accessed by I/O image transfer in the Control ogix CPU.

3. SlotServer Topology
The diagram below shows a typical implementation of the SlotServer onWorks Open Interface
Module
3.1. Hardware Connection Tips / Hints
• Note that the onWorks TP/FT-10 medium is polarity insensitive and therefore does not
require attention to connection orientation on the pins.
• Follow the Rockwell documentation for guidelines on inserting the SlotServer module
into the Control ogix backplane / rack.

4. SlotServer Installation
The SlotServer plugs directly into the AB1756 Control ogix rack. Take note of the slot number
used for the SlotServer as this will be needed when configuring the I/O in the RS ogix software.
4.1. SlotServer Ports and Displays
Note that there are several hardware ports available on the SlotServer card, but that this
SlotServer model only makes use of a select few. The ports and displays of interest are as
shown in the diagram below:
Scrolling Display
This will Display an OK status when the SlotServer has powered up successfully.
Card Status Indicators:
The Comm and OK lights will indicate green when the SlotServer has powered up
successfully. The Sys indicator will indicate green if the on Nodes are all communicating,
and red otherwise.
Service Pin
To be used for commissioning the SlotServer into a onWorks network
Scrolling display shows card messages
Card Status Indicators show general card
status
Service Pin For onWorks Commissioning
Communications Status ED’s show status of
communications and card software.
TP/FT10 onWorks Connection
Trade Port. Used for advanced troubleshooting
only. See Appendix A.

Communications Status LED’s
LED Description
Run
When the SlotServer is powered up, this light will start flashing after approximately 2
minutes. If this light does not flash, it is an indication that the firmware is not running,
and that the SlotServer will not be operating.
LonSvc This light will flash when the card’s Neuron chip is unconfigured, and will extinguish
when the SlotServer has been commissioned into a Network.
NodeOff
This light indicates that a device bound to the SlotServer on the onWorks network is
not communicating. Use the onWorks Network Manager to troubleshoot the problem.
Conf
Err
This light indicates an error in the card configuration. Since this model is shipped pre-
configured, this light should not come on unless the card configuration is tampered with
Sys Err
This light indicates that an unexpected operation state occurred. The light can be reset
by cycling power to the card. If the error re-occurs persistently, then contact FieldServer
Technical support for assistance with troubleshooting after setting up the trade port as
shown in Appendix A.
Com Err
This light indicates that a communication error occurred. Use the onWorks NetWork
Manager to troubleshoot the problem, or refer to Appendix A.
TP/FT10 LonWorks connection
This two wire connection is polarity insensitive and can be multi-dropped into a onWorks
Network.
Trade Port
The Trade port is an Ethernet port that can be used for advanced troubleshooting (See
Appendix A). Use standard Ethernet cables for this connection.
4.2. Inside Cover Door Label
A label has been provided on the inside of the cover door for the User to document
important or useful configuration parameters used. In particular, special provision has been
made to document the Trade port IP parameters, as well as the onWorks DSN
(Domain/Subnet/Node) allocated by the Network Manager. These fields are there to be
utilized at the User’s discretion.
