2.13.3 Loading the Network

This option enables you to configure the Composer to communicate with several drives
simultaneously regardless of communication type. To load a network, you need to first
create the network .net file by establishing communication with the required drives.

To create a network file:
1. Select Communication – Network – Save Network from the Composer menu bar.

The Save Network dialog box will be displayed.

2. Browse to the location at which the file should be saved, enter a name for the file and

click Save.

To load a network:
1. Either click Load Network from the Welcome to Composer Application window

displayed when you first access the Composer (

section

2.2

), or select Tools –

Network Load Network from the Composer menu bar. The Load Network dialog
box will be displayed:

2. From the Files of type drop-down list, select Network Files (*.net).
3. Browse to the location of your network file.
4. Click Open. The Composer will load the selected network. If communication with

one of the drives fails, a Can’t open communication message will be displayed with
the parameters of that drive. Click Abort to stop the network loading process, Retry
to attempt to reload the network, or Ignore to continue establishing communications
with the other drives in the network.
