To schedule a ControlNet network:

• save the project for each controller.
Schedule a New Network
To schedule a new network, perform this procedure.
1. Turn on the power to each chassis.
2. Start RSNetworx for ControlNet software.
3. From the File menu, choose New.
4. From the Network menu, choose Online.
5. Select your ControlNet network and choose OK.

IMPORTANT
Before you schedule a ControlNet network, turn on the power
to both redundant chassis. If you schedule a ControlNet
network while the secondary chassis is off, the keeper
signature of a CNB module may not match its partner, and the
secondary chassis will fail to synchronize.
