CHAPTER 5
CONFIGURING THE MODULE
The 1769HP-GPS module is supported by Allen Bradley’s MicroLogix 1500 and
CompactLogix PLC systems. Because the CompactLogix uses RSLogix 5000 and the
MicroLogix 1500 uses RSLogix 500, two different setup procedures are explained below.
5.1 CompactLogix (RSLogix 5000)
A direct connection between the controller and the 1769HP-GPS module is required to
transfer I/O data to and from the module. In addition the module supports various
unconnected messages that can be used to retrieve particular information.
Establishing the Direct Connection
This section describes the procedures necessary to configure the 1769HP-GPS module
within the CompactLogix system.
The 1769 Generic Module is used in RSLogix5000 to configure the module. The
configuration of the module is detailed in the table below.
