Hello all.
I have a Point IO rack with a virarity of Input and Output modules in it.
The PLC program is done but now I find it is necessary to add Input modules to gain more Input points.
My question is: can I add a module or two and have RSLogix auto-update my PLC program so what TAG use to point to an Input in SLOT 2 now points to an Input in SLOT 4 or whatever the numbering might be?
Also, can I leave empty SLOTs in the rack for future expansion? Say maybe there is Input modules in SLOTs 1, 2, 3 and Output modules in SLOTs 4, 5, 6. Can I still have the Input modules in SLOTs 1, 2, 3 then leave SLOTs 4, 5, 6 empty and then put my Output modules in SLOTs 7, 8, 9
Thanks for the help.
