Hello all,
I am starting a new project that has a ControlLogix 1756-L61 processor talking to 2 off ABB IRC5 robot controllers. The communications is via Ethernet IP with an ENBT card in the PLC rack and an ABB Ethernet IP Fieldbus Adapter in each robot controller.

The question is, how do I add the ABB ENet adapter to my RSLogix 5000 I/O config tree?o_O
Do I select a Generic Ethernet module, and if so does anyone know the Assembly instances I require?
Or is there a way of adding the ABB adapter so that it comes up in the window of available modules when I right click on my controller's ENBT and try to add new module?

PS. I'm not using RSNetworx for ENet.

Any help appreciated.
