Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment,
in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at
altitudes up to 2000 meters without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to
EC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be
I
potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments
due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as “open type” equipment. It must be mounted within
enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions
an
that will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting
from accessibility to live parts. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only
by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional
information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply
with certain product safety certifications.
NOTE: See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as
applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure. Also, see the appropriate sections in this publication, as well as
the Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1 (“Industrial Automation Wiring and
Grounding Guidelines”), for additional installation requirements pertaining to this
equipment.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
ATTENTION
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal
damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this
equipment:
ouch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• T
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• If available, use a static-safe workstation.
• When not in use, store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging.

If you connect the product to a cable system that does not support
redundant media, connect the tap dropline to the BNC connector
labeled channel A. Channel B is left unconnected.
If the cable system is redundant, connect the product so that all
devices on the network use the same cable for the same channel. That
is, all channel A connectors connect to one cable; all channel B
connectors connect to the other cable.

Create a View
The 1784-PKTCS card supports Network views and I/O Set (IoSet) views. A Network view
encapsulates I/O data from all of the devices in the scan list. The data is organized according
to the input and output addresses that you entered with the scanner configuration tool in
RSNetWorx for ControlNet.
An I/O Set view encapsulates I/O data from one speci

Read Inputs and Write Outputs
The input data (if any) and output data (if any) associated with the view are displayed in the
Input Data and Output Data sections, respectively.

The data transfer between IOView and the card occurs at the Read/Write Period. You can
change this period by moving the Read/Write Period slider.

Enter the desired
output values here.

list.
Select a Pre-determined Output Pattern
When you select a setting other than Manual, IOView automatically generates the output data
based on the selected pattern. To select a pre-determined output pattern, select a setting other
than Manual from the Output Pattern pull-down list.
Publication 1784-IN042A-EN-P - April 2005
Page 56
6-16 Use IOView to Verify the Configuration
Change the View State
When the view is initially created, the view state is set to Idle. The view state must be set to
Run in order for the I/O adapters and I/O modules to energize their outputs based on the
output data associated with the view.
ATTENTION
Set the view state to Run by selecting the Run radio button on the IOView screen. Once the
view state is set to Run, active outputs are sent to the associated output devices.
Select the Run radio
button to change the
view state to Run.
Changing the view state to Run will cause the I/O adapters and I/O
modules to energize their outputs based on the output data associated
with the view.
Produced data for a Send Data connection will be sent to the consuming
ice and consumed data for a Receive Data From connection will be
dev
received from the producing device regardless of the view state.
To avoid personal injury and property damage, before setting the view
ate to Run, verify that the output values are appropriate for the
st
consuming devices.
Delete a View
To delete a view, either:
• In the left-hand pane of the IOView screen, select the view to be deleted, then select
Edit⇒Delete View.
• Select File⇒Exit to shut down IOView.

Interpret Status Indicators
The status indicators on the card give you information about the card and the network when
the card is connected to the network with the BNC connectors. Table 7.1 outlines the states

hat state.

opposite states, out of phase.
