Table 3.5 Network Parameters for Scheduling the Network Online
Parameter Description
Network Update The smallest user-configurable repetitive time cycle in
Time (ms) milliseconds at which data can be sent on ControlNet.
Max. Scheduled
This is the node with the highest network address that can use
Address
scheduled time on a ControlNet link. I/O data is transferred during
scheduled time.RSNetWorx for ControlNet software sets this
value. We recommend that you do not change it.
Max. Unscheduled
Node with the highest network address that can use unscheduled
Address
time on a ControlNet link. Messaging data is transferred during
unscheduled time.
Nodes set at addresses higher than the maximum unscheduled
node do not communicate on the network, for example they will
not display in RSLinx software.
Media Redundancy Designates if the network uses media redundancy on any of the
network communication modules.
Network Name User-defined name of the network
10. If necessary, change the media configuration. The default media
configuration is sufficient in most cases. However, adjust the
configuration if your network is longer or uses repeaters. If the media
configuration does not accurately represent the maximum propagation
delay between any two nodes, your network may experience errors.
11. Save the file. This will schedule and activate the network.
12. In RSLogix 5000 software, save the online project.
