設(shè)置ControlNet網(wǎng)絡(luò)的網(wǎng)絡(luò)參數(shù)。Assume you have set up a system that contains 10 discrete I/O modules in a remote ControlNet chassis. If you used direct connections to transfer data to each of the these I/O modules, you would need 11 connections to transfer all of the data (one connection to the communication module and 1 connection to each of the ten I/O modules). If you used a rack-optimized connection to transfer the data, you would only need a single connection – the connection to the communication module. Since the 1756-CNB module is limited to 64 connections, using rack-optimized connections can save valuable resources. Important:Although rack optimized connections offer an efficient way to use resources, there are a few limitations on their use: • You can only use rack optimized connections to send data to and from discrete digital I/O modules. Analog I/O requires direct connections. • Rack optimized connections can contain I/O data and status information only. Additional module information, such as diagnostics, is not available through a rack-optimized connection. • You must use a consistent RPI for all data in a single rack-optimized connection. Since you are using a single connection to send the data, all of the data will be transferred in the same message at a uniform rate. Mixing Communication Formats When multiple I/O modules exist in the same chassis, the user can mix Comm Formats for the different I/O modules. I/O modules set up to use Rack Optimization will communicate at the rate of the RPI configured for the 1756-CNB module. I/O modules configured for direct communication will communicate at their set RPI and ignore the CNB RPI. Important:After the proper I/O configuration is set up in RSLogix5000, I/O communication on ControlNet is not established until RSNetWorx for ControlNet software is run. RSNetWorx is used to set up the network parameters of a ControlNet network.
