No, you will need RSLogix500. Contact your local AB representative as there are different versions of this software depending on your needs.

"NO" and "NC" are not terminology that one would normally use to describe inputs. Maybe "Sinking/Sourcing" ( different wiring methods).

If you are talking about how the input is used in the program "XIC" or XIO" instructions, as stated above you need the software.

If connecting thru the Ethernet port, the IP address can be seen on the controllers LCD screen.
You can also connect to one of its serial ports, a null-modem cable is needed for this.

See link below for the manual, it will have part numbers for the above cables.
