(i.e., there is no program loaded).
1. Initialize the system.
2. Configure handshaking messages with RSNetWorx.
3. Configure I/O.
4. Create and configure the backup integer file.
5. Verify the backup system.

2. Connect to the first processor.
3. Clear memory.
4. Assign a name to your project and save it.
