Program the Redundant Controller

Chapter 7

Use Messages for

Redundancy Commands

For some applications, you may want to program the controller to issue

redundancy system commands via the redundancy modules. The sections that

follow explain how to configure a MSG instruction to issue a redundancy

command.

Verify User Program Control

For a MSG instruction to issue a command via the redundancy modules, the

redundancy modules must be configured for user program control.

To verify that the modules are enabled for user program control, access the

Configuration tab of the RMCT and verify that Enable User Program Control is

checked.

Use an Unconnected Message

When you add your MSG instruction that is to be used for issuing the command

through the redundancy modules, configure it as an unconnected message.
