About this product The SlotServer Instruction Manual provides the information necessary to configure the SlotServer, allowing an Allen Bradley ControlLogix platform to pass data between a ControlLogix CPU and other third party communications protocols supported by the SlotServer. The SlotServer uses implicit communications between the CPU and the SlotServer and is consequently treated as an I/O Se
