I have an existing Contrologix system with a L61 processor. There are already 3 Flex I/O nodes using an AENT. I have to add 2 more to the project for some upcoming process expansion. I have read that these modules need to be added to the offline project and then downloaded to the processor. I have no issues with this and am trying to schedule a time with the production gods to give their blessings to do so. My question is this: Does it make sense to add 1 or 2 more AENT modules to the program and leave them inhibited for now? I see a need in the near future ( 1 or 2 months) where I might have to add some more remote I/O and if I can put these in the processor now it would save me from having to go through the problem of finding the time to do it. Does anyone have any comments, concerns, or suggestions with this idea? Thanks
