Allen-Bradley ControlNet PLC-5 User Manual

1785-UM022B-EN-P - February 2002
Planning to Use Your ControlNet PLC-5 Processor 2-31
Using the ControlNet
PLC-5 Processor in a
ControlNet I/O System
There can be multiple ControlNet PLC-5 processors updating I/O
adapters on a ControlNet network.
• any processor can own adapters on the network
• any processor is allowed to send CIO instructions to I/O modules
• additional processors can do scheduled transfers to any other
processor on the ControlNet network by using peer-to-peer
communications through the scan configuration list
The following table describes various ControlNet devices that you
can add to your network. For a complete listing, contact your local
Rockwell Automation sales office.
