Communicate with Devices on a ControlNet Network
Appendix B
After you add the card to the chassis monitor, you can browse the network by
expanding the Virtual Backplane driver and then expanding the port on the
desired 1784-PCICS or 1784-PCIC communication card. Browsing ControlNet
through the Virtual Backplane driver provides the same functionality as the
RSLinx driver.
This example shows the 1784-PCICS card as a virtual module in the SoftLogix
Chassis Monitor in slot 2. The status indicators on the virtual monitor emulate a
1756-CNBR communication module.
This chassis monitor has a 1784-PCICS card
installed in slot 2.
