Although ControlLogix 5580 and GuardLogix 5580 controllers can use
Ethernet communication modules, only ControlLogix 5560 and 5570 and
GuardLogix 5560 and 5570 controllers require an Ethernet communication
module for connection to the Ethernet network. See
Communication, Drive, and Software Options on page 11
information.
Follow these instructions to add an Ethernet communication module to your
project if needed.
IMPORTANT For all communication modules, use the firmware revision that goes with
the firmware revision of your controller. See the release notes for the
firmware of your controller.
