There is a sample program "I-7017.pc5" in the "ICP-CON" subfolder of the "samples" folder in the TRiLOGI installation directory. You should also download the application notes and the sample program from the following weblink:

http://www.tri-plc.com/trilogi/I-7000.zip

Please read the application notes as it tells you in details how to use the I-70xx with the M-series PLCs.

When multiple I-70xx are used, each one must be set with a different ID. But first of all, use the default ID (01) which the sample program uses to communicate with the I-70xx. Get a feel on it and see the resulting analog reading on the LCD. Then after that you can proceed to change the ID of the I-7017 and modify the program to handle two I-7017.
