Hi guys,
I need to add 2 x 1769-IF4 and 1 x 1769 OW16 output card into an existing Micro 1400 Series A PLC. It has already has 3 expansion modules added in the past and now another 3.
From what i'm reading it seems like i can just power off the controller and add the cards in, then power back on and 'read i/o config' in IO config popup screen and they appear. Will this put the PLC into fault as it knows they shouldn't be there?
Is this the best way or should i drag and drop them into the I/O configuration while offline. If so do i then do a download to the controller.
When setting the analogs to 4-20ma etc do you need to do a download for changes to take effect or does hitting apply change these immediately?
Thanks.
