Reconfigure an I/O Module
Use the Module Reconfigure message to send new configuration information to an I/O module.
During the reconfiguration, the following occurs:
- Input modules continue to send input data to the controller.
- Output modules continue to control their output devices.
A Module Reconfigure message requires this configuration properties.

Message Type | Module Reconfigure |
Example
Follow these steps to reconfigure an I/O module.
- Set the required member of the configuration tag of the module to the new value.
- Send a Module Reconfigure message to the module.When reconfigure[5] is set, set the high alarm to 60 for the local module in slot 4. The Module Reconfigure message then sends the new alarm value to the module. The one shot instruction prevents the rung from sending multiple messages to the module while the reconfigure[5] is on.TIP:We recommend that you always include an XIO of the MSG.EN bit as an in-series MSG rung precondition.

IMPORTANT:
ControlLogix modules have services that can be invoked by using a MSG instruction and choosing the CIP Generic message type.

TIP:
- Selecting theCIP Genericmessage type enables theLarge Connectionoption on theCommunicationtab. Use large CIP Generic connections when a message is greater than 480 bytes. 500 bytes is typical, but there are headers at the front of the message. Large CIP connections are for messages up to 3980 bytes.
- TheLarge Connectionbox is enabled only when theConnectedbox is checked andCIP Genericis selected as the message type on theConfigurationtab.
- TheLarge Connectionoption is available only in Logix Designer application, version 21.00.00 or later and RSLogix 5000 software, version 20.00.00 or later.
