Keep a Message Going to
the Primary Chassis
If you are not using IP swapping, any controller that sends a message
to a redundant chassis has to point to the new primary chassis after a
switchover.
Sending Message to Primary Chassis
In this procedure, use CIP Generic messages to determine which
chassis is primary. Then send a Message (MSG) instruction to the
primary controller.
When you create tags for your HMI project, use the alias topic in the address of the tag.
