Connect the CN2DN Device to a ControlNet Network
Complete the following steps to connect your CN2DN linking device
to the ControlNet network.
1. Attach the BNC connector of the ControlNet cable to
ControlNet port A.
2. If you are connecting to redundant media, attach the BNC
connector of the other ControlNet cable to ControlNet port B.
The CN2DN linking device is now connected to the ControlNet
network.
WARNING
If you connect or disconnect the communications cable with power
applied to this module or any device on the network, an electrical arc
can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect more than one ControlNet network to the CN2DN
device at a time. Connecting the CN2DN device to two networks at
one time will cause erratic behavior of the CN2DN device.
