Configure Unscheduled Communications
Objectives
This chapter shows how to configure a sample ControlNet network
using Unscheduled messaging between a PanelView Plus or
PanelView Plus CE terminal and an Allen-Bradley controller.
Configuring Unscheduled messaging is similar to setting up Ethernet
communications. You do not need to configure settings in the
ControlNet scanner module or use RSNetWorx to configure the
network. Unscheduled communications uses the left over bandwidth
of the ControlNet network to establish its communications.
Software Requirements
Verify that the correct software/firmware is installed on the
development computer and the PanelView Plus or PanelView Plus CE
terminal.
