I'm trying to add redundancy module 1756-rm2 in rslogix 5000 io configuration, but when I press on "New module" list doesn't contain this product number. Im using Rslogix 5000 v20.01
What should I do? Please help |

I got eds here and redundancy works great even without putting the module in RSlogix 5000 configuration tree.
http://www.ab.com/networks/eds/cgi-bin/search.cgi?network_type=ControlNet,
but
I need to put RM2 module in configuration tree to do MSG instruction for program executed redundancy switchover ("Browse for the path to the 1756-RM or 1756-RMXT redundancy module." page 172 of 1756-um535_-en-p.pdf manual) |

Putting the path as: 1, number of 1756-RM2 module slot
makes it work, so for RM-2 module in slot 3 you would have to put 1, 3
Now I have another question, do I need both 1756-RMC1 fiber optic redundancy cables? Switchover works with only one but there is a red LED blinking on ch2. Putting both cables makes ch2 blink in green. |
