ProductType Specify the product type of the module.
For L5X, this attribute is on the <EKey> element if the State attribute has a value of Custom.
ProductCode Specify the product code of the module.
For L5X, this attribute is on the <EKey> element if the State attribute has a value of Custom.
Major Specify the major revision number (1...127) of the module.
For L5X, this attribute is on the <EKey> element if the State attribute has a value of Custom.
Minor Specify the minor revision number (1...255) of the module.
For L5X this attribute is on the <EKey> element if the State attribute has a value of Custom.
UserDefinedVendor Specify the vendor of a non-Allen-Bradley module. Type a number to indicate the vendor.
UserDefinedProductType Specify the product type of a non-Allen-Bradley module.
UserDefinedProductCode Specify the product code of a non-Allen-Bradley module.
UserDefinedMajor Specify the major revision number (1...127) of a non-Allen-Bradley module.
UserDefinedMinor Specify the minor revision number (1...255) of a non-Allen-Bradley module.
PortLabel L5K only. Specify the port used to reach this module. The port label is either RxBACKPLANE for modules in a chassis or a text string for
modules on a network.
ChassisSize L5K only. Specify the number of slots in the chassis.
For L5X, use the Size attribute on the <Bus> element.
Slot L5K only. Specify the slot number where the module is in the chassis.
For L5X, use the Address attribute on the <Port> element.
NodeAddress L5K only. Specify the node address (1...99) on the network with the Ethernet IP address or host name).
For L5X, use the Address attribute on the <Port> element.
Group L5K only. If the module is a remote I/O module, specify the starting group (0...7). For a block-transfer module, this is the module group
number under the remote I/O adapter.
CommMethod Specify the method of connecting to the module.
