7. Identify the device(s) that need(s) to be mapped to the network.

The Current Configuration list (blank in Figure 4.5) shows the
devices configured on the ControlNet network. The Network
Configuration
list shows devices on the network. Because we are
creating a new ControlNet network from scratch in our example,
no devices are currently configured. Your network may already
have devices configured on it.

The only device that we will need to map to the network is the
1203-CN1 module. The other devices (PLC-5/40

®

) and

(1784-KTCX) do not need to be configured on the network.

8. Click OK to close the dialog box. The RSNetWorx screen

reappears.

You are now in online mode and know which device(s) need to be
mapped to the network.
