Chapter 6: Configuring the Hot Standby
A Max-ON RX3i Project contains three Targets that are used to distinguish between
hardware configurations for CPU A and CPU B, and the user application that is common to
both of the CPUs. The figure shown below illustrates the various components contained in
the Generic X3i Project named Max-ON RX3i LD Project vx_yy.zip.
Figure 71
When a Max-ON RX3i project is created, a hardware configuration Target is provided for PLC
A and one is provided for PLC B. In most aspects, these targets are very similar to each other.
The significant differences between the two hardware configurations are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Many of the configuration items are completed during the process of developing the
Project. The following sections provide details on the configuration of these elements.
Configuring the Hot Standby Redundancy CPUs
Redundancy CPUs
Identity settings for the CPUs (via logic checksum words)
Serial communication port settings and SNP ID
Ethernet interface IP addresses
Ethernet Global Data configuration for the Ethernet Sync LANs
Ethernet Global Data configuration for the Ethernet I/O LANs
