Steps After System Components Upgrade

Complete these remaining steps after upgrading the necessary components to an

enhanced redundancy system

1. Apply power to the primary chassis.
2. Update and load the controller program.

3. If used, reschedule the ControlNet network.

For more information about rescheduling the ControlNet network, see

Update an Existing Scheduled Network on page 100

.

4. Place the primary controller in Run mode.
5. Apply power to the secondary chassis.

If the Auto-Synchronization parameter is set to Always, the system begins

qualification and synchronization automatically.

6. If your Auto-Synchronization parameter is set at Never or Conditional

Disable, use the synchronization commands in the Synchronization tab of

the RMCT to qualify and synchronize your system.

For more information about using the synchronization commands in the

1756-RMCT module, see

Commands in the Synchronization Tab on

page 117

.

You have completed the steps necessary to upgrade a standard system to an

enhanced system.

IMPORTANT

If you have an existing RSLogix 5000 program for the controller, update

the program to reflect the new modules and firmware revisions.
Updates required may include changes to tags, message paths, and
controller properties, depending on your application.

IMPORTANT

Before bringing your newly-upgraded system online and into production
mode, test the system to verify that the changes made are suitable for your
application.
